Abstract, Snapshot, Market Analysis & Market Definition: Global Cervical Cancer Treatment Market


The global Cervical Cancer Treatment market size is projected to reach US$ 9.77 billion by 2026, from US$ 7.29 billion in 2020, at a CAGR of 5% during 2021-2026. Increased disease prevalence, proactive government initiatives, and advent of targeted therapies are the major factors contributing to the market expansion. Cervical cancer has a high mortality rate (nearly 50%), which can be reduced by diagnosis and prevention.

Since the disease progression is generally slow, precancerous changes provide possibilities for prevention and treatment. However, most cases are presented at later stages of disease progression due to lack of awareness or inaccessibility to diagnostic facilities. Human Papillomavirus (HPV) is a major causative factor for cervical cancer, generally acquired through sexual transmission. There are more than 100 strains of HPV, out of which 13 are high-risk or cancerous.

High vs low risk HPV strains are determined by the activated gene - E6 or E7. E6 has affinity for p53, leading to proteolytic degradation. On the other hand, E7 attaches to retinoblastoma; the binding displaces previously bound transcription factors and results in halting cell cycle and inhibiting apoptosis regulation. This disease can also be triggered by other factors, such as oral contraceptives, smoking, and HIV infection.

Lack of awareness about the diagnosis and treatment methods, high cost of treatment, and adverse effects associated with cancer therapy may hinder the market growth. Moreover, lack of targeted drugs with improved clinical profile at reduced costs and convenient administration schedule is also likely to obstruct market growth. However, rising R & D expenditure in oncologic diseases offer a promising future for the global cervical cancer treatment market in the foreseeable future.

Key Players, Recent Developments & Regional Insights: Global Cervical Cancer Treatment Market

Products for cervical cancer can be broadly classified into prevention and treatment. Preventive options involve vaccines against HPV. Currently, there are two commercial vaccines - Gardasil and Cervarix. Treatment options involves biologics including Avastin and generics, such as topotecan, cisplatin, bleomycin, fluorouracil, paclitaxel, carboplatin, and doxorubicin.

Gardasil led the preventive vaccine segment in 2017, supported by strong commercial sales across the world. In addition, Gardasil 9 - an improvised, nonavalent version of Gardasil - was approved by the FDA in 2015. This label expansion gave Gardasil (quadrivalent) and Gardasil 9 (nonavalent) a distinct clinical advantage over Cervarix (bivalent). GlaxoSmithKline withdrew Cervarix from the U.S. market in 2016 due to low demand and intense competition.

Avastin (bevacizumab) was approved for the treatment of cervical cancer in 2014. This marked the arrival of biologics in this treatment landscape. Avastin was approved in Europe and Japan in 2015 and 2016, respectively. Following this, the FDA approved Keytruda (pembrolizumab) in 2018. Although generic products continue to capture significant market share, the arrival of biologics and other targeted therapies indicate a paradigm shift in this therapeutic space through the forecast period.

Distribution Channel Insights

Hospital pharmacies captured the largest share of the global market in 2017. Hospital pharmacies preserve the stock of products related to cervical cancer for out-patients, as well as in-patients. The segment will be driven further by growing consumer awareness and increased investments in healthcare infrastructure in developing and underdeveloped countries.

Online pharmacies segment is expected to be the fastest-growing distribution channel segment. This growth can be attributed to user-friendly interfaces and convenience offered by these pharmacies, in terms of access, prices, and delivery. In addition, they have several discounts on purchase of a certain amount or offer bundle pricing for cancer products.

Regional Insights

North America led the global market in 2017. This was attributed to increased disease prevalence and consumer awareness along with technological advancements in the diagnosis and treatment of oncological diseases. The regional market is projected to expand further due to positive lifestyle changes. The Asia Pacific market is driven by improving economy and resultant emphasis on preventive healthcare.

Rising number of health initiatives by private and government firms, adoption of better technologies, and growing consumer awareness are key drivers for the regional market. It is expected to witness steady growth over the forecast period on account of rising population, disease prevalence, and demand for cost-effective treatments. The trend of biosimilars in emerging markets, such as India and China, could potentially alter the therapeutic landscape in this region.

Cervical Cancer Treatment Market Share Insights

Some of the key companies in this market include F. Hoffmann-LA Roche AG; Merck & Co., Inc.; GlaxoSmithKline PLC; Allergan PLC; Pfizer, Inc.; Biocon Ltd.; Bristol-Myers Squibb; AstraZeneca PLC; and Eli Lilly & Co.
