Liver Cancer Therapeutics Market

Global Liver Cancer Therapeutics Market Size (2024 to 2032)

In 2023,the global liver cancer therapeutics market was valued at USD 810.6 billion and it is expected to reach USD 1775.13 billion by 2032 from USD 884.36 billion in 2024, growing at a CAGR of 9.1 % during the forecast period.

Current Scenario of the Global Liver Cancer Therapeutics Market

Liver cancer signifies the fifth most generally arising cancer and the third foremost reason for deaths associated with cancer globally. Hence, the liver cancer diagnosis and medication market are projected to become an active ground for competition in the coming few years. Several new-targeted therapies are predicted to arrive in the liver cancer therapeutics market shortly. Directed cancer therapies practice medication to avoid the growth of cancer cells by intruding specific molecules, known as molecular targets, thus preventing the movement and development of cancer cells. The treatment procedures mainly focus on cellular and molecular variations affecting cancer cells.

MARKET DRIVERS

The growing aging population, unmet requirements for liver cancer treatment, drug inventions concerning cancer, increasing government initiatives, rising cancer occurrences, and growing healthcare expenditure propel the global liver cancer therapeutics market.

According to Globocan, approximately 1.2 million new liver cancer cases have been reported worldwide. The increasingly intense research and development activities opposing dangerous diseases have developed in launching new drugs and rising FDA approvals for treating hepatocellular carcinoma accounting for 90% of liver cancer. Factors such as alcohol consumption, smoking, and increasing urbanization for liver cancer majorly led to liver cancer. The rising government support and investments made by international healthcare organizations positively reflect the global liver cancer therapeutics market. A wide range of treatment options for liver cancer may soon uplift the demand levels.

MARKET RESTRAINTS

However, factors such as stringent regulatory processes, high capital investments, the low success rate in clinical trials for drugs, and low approachability in remote areas hinder the global liver cancer therapeutics market growth. 

REPORT COVERAGE

SEGMENTAL ANALYSIS

Global Liver Cancer Therapeutics Market Analysis By Type

 Based on the type, the secondary segment dominated the market in 2021 and is estimated to continue the dominating trend during the forecast period. Secondary liver cancer is also known as metastatic liver cancer.

Global Liver Cancer Therapeutics Market Analysis By Therapeutics

Based on therapeutics, the hepatocellular carcinoma segment is the most significant therapeutics type due to its high prevalence of liver cancer. According to the National Organization for Rare Diseases (NORD), there are nearly six new cases of HCC per every 100,000 people in the general population of the U.S. In addition, the high occurrence of cancer and high unemployed medical needs drives the market growth during the analysis period.The targeted therapy is expected to grow at the highest pace. The segment mainly involves tyrosine inhibitors, limiting the several kinase proteins that accelerate cancer cell growth.

Global Liver Cancer Therapeutics Market Analysis By End-Users

The adult end-user segment is expected to lead the global liver cancer therapeutics market during the forecast period due to high alcohol consumption and tobacco intake.

REGIONAL ANALYSIS

North America is the largest market for liver cancer therapeutics, followed by Europe and Asia. The growth of the North American market is majorly driven by the factors such as the appearance of better healthcare infrastructure and the increasing aged population. The United States is leading the North American market due to the Y-O-Y increase in liver cancer cases and the growing demand for treatment. As per the American Society of Clinical Oncology, around 42,220 adults have been diagnosed with liver cancer in the U.S. as of 2018. In addition, the early adoption of advanced technology diagnosis products and liver cancer methods makes the region grow more robust. The Canadian liver cancer therapeutics market is next to the U.S. in leading the market. The market players focus more on research and development activities to develop new treatments for liver cancer.

The European market was the second-largest regional global market in 2021. The European market is mainly growing due to rising investments in developing effective therapeutic drugs. Moreover, the targeted drug therapy products lead the market forward. U.K. and Germany are leading economies of the European market. The U.K. is leading the market and will dominate throughout the forecast period. According to the Cancer Research Organization, around 5,736 liver cancer cases were reported in the U.K. in 2015. The liver cancer therapeutics market in Germany and France is observed to grow at the highest CAGR pace. 

Also, Asia-Pacific signifies the fastest-growing region for the liver cancer therapeutics market, owing to increasing aged populations. In addition, an increasing number of liver cancer cases in Asian countries is further fuelling the market in this region. The rising number of clinical studies regarding liver disease, including cancer, and the rising number of older adults, are other significant factors contributing to the APAC market growth. China is a promising destination for market players in the industry. The broad base target population and vital unused medical needs support the major push for market growth.

On the other hand, Latin America and, the Middle East & Africa are likely to witness considerable market growth in liver cancer therapeutics. Increasing funds and investments by both public and private organizations in research and development in treating cancer.
