Factors responsible for the growth of endometrial cancer market include rise in awareness about uterine diseases and their available therapies, innovation in drug development and subsequent technological advancements, and increasing healthcare expenditure. For instance, in most countries, the rate at which healthcare expenditure is increasing is higher than the rate of economic growth, and this is a trend that has been observed over the decades. The presence of equitable, responsive, and efficient health systems across the countries of North America, Europe, and Asia-Pacific has also contributed to the maximum share of GDP being utilized as healthcare expenditure. Moreover, with the increase in the number of people diagnosed with cancer, the introduction of new therapies is expected to increase the costs of cancer care. Cancer treatment can be very expensive, especially with the patients and survivors often needing long-term treatment and monitoring. Additionally, attractive healthcare insurance plans and better reimbursement rates play a vital role in increasing people’s expenditure on treatments, which is expected to drive the market studied.

However, factors, such as the adverse effects of the treatment and high toxicity of drugs are expected to hinder the market growth.

Key Market Trends

Chemotherapy is expected to hold the Highest Revenue Share in the Type of Therapy Segmentation

In the global endometrial cancer market, the chemotherapy segment is expected to witness a moderate CAGR, owing to the lesser number of drugs approved for the treatment of endometrial cancer. However, the segment is expected to hold the largest share in the type of therapy; this is due to the high adoption rate of chemotherapy when compared to radiation and surgical treatment. The chemotherapeutic agents, such as carboplatin and paclitaxel, are commonly recommended as the first line of therapy in the majority of the cancer cases, which increases the demand for these products.

North America dominates the Market and expected to do Same in the Forecast Period

North America currently dominates the market for endometrial cancer and is expected to continue its stronghold for a few more years due to a high incidence of uterine serous carcinoma.

This, along with other factors, such as the rising awareness for the diagnosis of cancer and the presence of the developed healthcare infrastructure are expected to propel the market in the United States.
