The Global Colorectal Cancer Therapeutics Market was Worth $7.0 billion in 2009, Driven by the Growth in the Patient Volume and Annual Cost of Colorectal Cancer Therapy
Hyderabad, AP, India (prbd.net) 21/10/2010
GlobalData analysis found that, in 2009, the global colorectal cancer therapeutics market was worth $7.0 billion. Between 2001 and 2009, the market grew at a rate of 27.6%. By 2020, the market is expected to be worth $8.8 billion, indicating a Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of 2.1% between 2009 and 2020.

The global colorectal cancer therapeutics market is very attractive and has primarily been driven by the growth in patient volume and the annual cost of therapy. The patient volume was driven by increased affordability rates and growth in treatment usage patterns such as the diseased population, treatment seeking population, diagnosis population and prescription population. The annual cost of colorectal cancer therapy was driven by the launch of new therapies such as oxaliplatin, capecitabine, bevacizumab and cetuximab. Further, the annual cost of therapy was also driven by the increased adoption of combination therapies such as FOLFOX (5-fluorouracil, leucovorin and oxaliplatin), FOLFIRI (5-fluorouracil, leucovorin and irinotecan), 5FU/LV (5-fluorouracil, leucovorin) and CAPOX (capecitabine and oxaliplatin) in the first-line and second-line treatment of metastatic colorectal cancer patients.
