PEcoma

Perivascular epithelioid cell tumors, also known as PEComa, represent a rare type of mesenchymal neoplasm that originates from perivascular epithelioid cells. These tumors can occur in various organs throughout the body, such as the uterus, kidney, liver, and gastrointestinal tract. PEComa is considered a challenging disease due to its rarity and the limited understanding surrounding its pathogenesis. Further, continuous rise in the incidences of Pecoma is also driving the market. For instance, as per the National Organization for Rare Disorders, Malignant PEComas are estimated to be diagnosed in 0.12 to 0.24 per one million people.

The PEcoma market was valued at USD 45.5 million in 2022 and is expected to grow at a CAGR of around 5% from 2023-2030.
