Global bladder cancer therapeutics market forecasts
According to bladder cancer therapeutics industry insights, the global bladder cancer therapeutics market will grow at a CAGR of close to 5% during the forecast period. The availability of targeted therapy will be one of the major factors driving the growth prospects for the market until the end of 2021. The advancements in drug targeting techniques have enabled doctors to administer drugs directly into the bladder having tumors. This, in turn, will help in avoiding the side effects of these drugs on healthy cells. With a better understanding of tumor, immunology scientists can also now develop new drugs targeted at cancer cells. TECENTRIQ and OPDIVO are the PD-L1 inhibitors recently approved by the US FDA for the treatment of urothelial carcinoma.
One of the effective procedures for the diagnosis of bladder cancer, cystoscopy, involves the use of a long thin tube called cystoscope. This helps the urologist to extract a small piece of the abnormal tissue and send it to the pathologists for examination. With the emergence of effective diagnostic tools such as the flexible cystoscope, urologists will prefer cystoscopy since it can be easily performed in the outpatient department. This emergence of effective diagnostic tools will be one of the major trends that will gain traction in the bladder cancer therapeutics market during the next four years.
