The global acromegaly and gigantism drugs market is anticipated to grow at a significant CAGR during the forecast period (2021-2027). The major factor that is expected to boost the market includes the increasing prevalence of the pituitary tumors. Moreover, according to the American Cancer Society, around ten thousand pituitary tumors are diagnosed in America each year. Such a high prevalence rate of this tumor is one of the most important factors, which is augmenting the growth of the market. Furthermore, the rise in prevalence of other chronic disorders such as carney complex and McCune- Albright Syndrome is another factor that is expected to accelerate the growth of the global acromegaly and gigantism drugs market during the forecast period. However, the lack of awareness about the diagnosis and management of the disorder in many developing countries is the major restraining factor of the market.
