Published: Jul 2023 | Report Code: OMR2023672 | Category : Pharmaceuticals | Delivery Format: /

The global market for gastric cancer is projected to have a considerable CAGR of around 6.8% during the forecast period. Gastric cancer is one of the most common forms of cancer across the globe. In gastric cancer, the malignant cells form in the lining of the stomach and develop slowly over many years. Bacterium Helicobacter pylori is a stomach infection that is one of the primary factors for the occurrence of gastric cancer. The high prevalence of gastrointestinal stromal tumours, carcinoid tumors, and lymphoma is one of the major factors for augmenting the treatment market of gastric cancer. An increase in the number of cancer treatment facilities across the globe is another major factor for the growth of the market. According to the American Cancer Society’s estimates for stomach cancer (also known as gastric cancer) in the US for 2021, there are about 26,560 new cases of stomach cancer (16,160 in men and 10,400 in women) are diagnosed, and about 11,180 people are died due to this type of cancer (6,740 men and 4,440 women) are registered. The growing elderly population, technological advancement and rising incidence and prevalence rate of gastric cancer are boosting the stomach cancer market across the globe.

However, the high cost of therapy and commercially less availability of drugs for the treatment of stomach cancer, and regulatory procedures for approving the complex nature of radiation devices are projected to hamper the market growth. Besides, the development of a new cancer screening technique and continuous R&D in drug innovation for better treatment is expected to create lucrative opportunities in the global gastric cancer market.

Segmental Outlook  

The global gastric cancer market is segmented based on testing type, treatment type and end-users. Based on testing type, the market further segmented into chest x-ray, computed tomography (CT or CAT) scan, laparoscopy, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scan, positron emission tomography (PET) scan and Others. Similarly, on the basis of treatment type, the market is classified into chemotherapy, radiation therapy, surgery, targeted therapy, and immunotherapy. Among these, the targeted therapy segment is expected to show a significant growth rate during the forecast period. Delivery of advanced techniques including enzyme therapy and stem cell therapy is the primary factor for growth in the targeted therapy market. Targeted therapy tends to work in some cases where standard chemotherapy does not work. In such cases, trastuzumab, a targeted therapy drug, is given with chemotherapy. Based on end-user, the market is classified into hospitals & clinics, specialized cancer treatment centers and others.

Global Gastric Cancer Market Share by Treatment Type, 2020 (%)

Chemotherapy projected to hold the largest share in Gastric Cancer Market

Based on treatment type, the chemotherapy segment is projected to dominate the global gastric cancer market by acquiring the largest market share during the forecast period. The chemotherapy is used to slow down the formation of cancer cells. It is considered the most preferred and useful treatment for cancer that has spread to organs beyond where it started. Chemotherapy (chemo) uses anti-cancer drugs that are injected into a vein (through an IV line or central venous catheter) or given by mouth as pills. These drugs enter the bloodstream and reach all areas of the body to control the wide spreading of cancer cells. These therapies can be given to patients in two forms, before surgery and after surgery. Chemo is given before surgery for stomach cancer known as neoadjuvant treatment, and chemo after surgery is known as adjuvant treatment. The rising prevalence of gastric cancer coupled with geriatric populations creates the demand for such type of advanced therapies, that further led to the development of the market. 

Regional Outlook 

Geographically, the global Gastric Cancer market is classified into four major regions including North America (the US and Canada), Europe (UK, Germany, France, Italy, Spain, Russia, and Rest of Europe), Asia-Pacific (India, China, Japan, South Korea, and Rest of Asia-Pacific), and Rest of the World (Latin America and the Middle East and Africa (MEA)). Among these, the Asia-Pacific region is expected to grow at a considerable CAGR during the forecast period. Growing disposable income, awareness and healthcare spending are the major factor driving the growth of the gastric cancer market in the region. The rising prevalence of gastric cancer in various countries such as China, Japan, South Korea will create significant market growth for gastric cancer in the region.

North America further estimated to Dominate the Gastric Cancer Market

Geographically, North America held the largest share in the global gastric cancer market in 2020, and it is anticipated to dominate the market during the forecast period. In North America, the US holds the largest market share. The availability of cancer treatment drugs and development in the healthcare sector coupled with advanced treatments and technologies is the major factor augmenting the growth of the market. The rising prevalence of gastric cancer, large patients’ pools, and growing geriatric population also accelerating the market growth by increasing demands for advanced treatments. According to the National Cancer Institute, in 2021, there are 26,560 new gastric cancer cases are estimated, which is 1.4% of the total cases, and 11,180 deaths are due to gastric cancer are estimated, which is 1.8% of the total mortalities. 

Market Players Outlook

The key players in the gastric cancer market contributing significantly by providing different types of products and increasing their geographical presence across the globe. The key players of the market are Bayer AG, Bristol Myers Squibb Co., Eli Lilly and Co., F. Hoffmann-La Roche Ltd, Merck & Co., Inc., Novartis International AG, among others. These market players adopt different marketing strategies such as mergers & acquisitions, R&D, product launches, and geographical expansions to generate more revenue and to remain competitive in the market. For instance, in August 2020, Pieris Pharmaceuticals, Inc, a clinical-stage biotechnology company and Eli Lilly and Co., came into a clinical trial collaboration supply agreement to evaluate the safety and efficacy of combining Pieris' PRS-343, a 4-1BB/HER2 bispecific for HER2-positive tumors, with Lilly's ramucirumab, a VEGFR2 antagonist and paclitaxel for the second-line treatment of patients with HER2-positive gastric cancer in a phase 2 study.
