What Are The Current Leading Growth Drivers For Capecitabine Market?
The surge in cancer cases is projected to boost the growth of the capecitabine market in the future. Cancer refers to a wide range of diseases that occur when cells in the body begin to multiply uncontrollably, surpass their normal boundaries, and either spread to other organs or infiltrate surrounding body parts. Capecitabine, a chemotherapy drug, is used in the treatment of cancer, where it's enzymatically transformed into fluorouracil, an antimetabolite in the tumor. This process inhibits DNA synthesis and decelerates the growth of tumor tissue. For example, in May 2024, the National Cancer Institute, a U.S. government agency, reported that cancer remains a leading cause of mortality globally, accounting for 20 million new cases and 9.7 million deaths in 2022. These numbers are predicted to increase to 29.9 million cases and 15.3 million deaths by 2040. Hence, the escalating prevalence of cancer is bolstering the growth of the capecitabine market.
