Breast Cancer Treatment Market: Introduction
Breast cancer is one of the most common types of cancer, affecting millions of people worldwide. The increasing prevalence of breast cancer, especially among women, is a major factor driving the growth of the breast cancer treatment market. The market is highly competitive, with key players focusing on research and development activities to develop innovative products and strengthen their market position.
Breast Cancer - Epidemiology
Breast cancer is one of the most common types of cancer worldwide. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), breast cancer is the most common cancer among women, accounting for approximately 30% of all newly diagnosed cancers in women globally. In 2020, there were an estimated 2.3 million new cases of breast cancer diagnosed worldwide, making it the second most common cancer overall, after lung cancer.
The incidence of breast cancer varies by region, with higher rates observed in developed countries. In North America, breast cancer is the most commonly diagnosed cancer among women, with an estimated 281,550 new cases expected in 2021, according to the American Cancer Society. In Europe, breast cancer is also the most common cancer among women, with an estimated 562,500 new cases in 2020, according to the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC).
The incidence of breast cancer is also increasing in many low- and middle-income countries. According to the WHO, breast cancer incidence has been steadily increasing in Africa, Asia, and Latin America over the past few decades, due in part to changing lifestyles, including increased urbanization and adoption of Western-style diets and reproductive patterns. Additionally, breast cancer is often diagnosed at a later stage in these countries, leading to poorer outcomes.
Breast cancer incidence is also influenced by several risk factors, including age, family history of breast cancer, reproductive factors, hormonal factors, lifestyle factors (such as physical inactivity and alcohol consumption), and exposure to radiation or certain chemicals. Early detection through screening and prompt treatment are crucial for improving breast cancer outcomes.
