On Cytotoxic Drugs Market
Global Cytotoxic Drugs Market: Drivers
The cytotoxic drugs market size is expected to grow significantly during the forecast timeframe, owing
to increasing incidences of cancer worldwide. According to World Health Organization’s (WHO) 2018
report, around 9.6 million deaths were recorded due to cancer and around 18.1 million new cases of
cancer were diagnosed in 2018 worldwide.
Furthermore, increasing number of cytotoxic drug approvals is expected to boost the market growth.
For instance, in November 2018, the U.S. FDA approved Pfizer’s DAURISMO (glasdegib) in the U.S.
for adult patients with newly-diagnosed acute myeloid leukemia for whom intensive chemotherapy is
not an option. Other potential factor that contributes to cytotoxic drugs market revenue growth is
increasing therapeutic area of cytotoxic drugs in auto-immune conditions, rheumatoid arthritis,
psoriasis, or prevention of transplant rejection because of its immunosuppressive or anti–proliferative
effects.
Global Cytotoxic Drugs Market: Restraints
The major restraining factor for the cytotoxic drugs market growth is adverse side effects shown by
consumption of cytotoxic drugs such as nausea and vomiting, severe diarrhea, and damage to bone
marrow. Cytotoxic drugs can be toxic to other organ systems and lead to conditions such as
gastrointestinal toxicity, neurotoxicity renal toxicity, and cardiovascular toxicity. For instance,
according to NHS Lothian Joint Formulary, drugs such as fluorouracil, doxorubicin, and oral
capecitabine may cause severe stomatitis, diarrhea, and coronary spasm mimicking angina. Moreover,
systemic anti-cancer therapy (SACT) drugs increase the risk of thromboembolic disease eventually
restraining the cytotoxic drugs market growth.
