Global Glioblastoma Market: Information by Type (Primary Glioblastoma and Secondary Glioblastoma), by Treatment (Surgical Procedure, Radiation Therapy, Chemotherapy and others), by End User (Hospitals, Specialty Clinics & Centers and others) and by Region (Americas, Europe, Asia-Pacific and the Middle East & Africa) - Forecast till 2027

Market Overview

Global Glioblastoma Market is expected to register a CAGR of 7.40% to reach 1,643.4 million by 2025. Glioblastoma is a type of brain tumor. The increasing occurrences of glioblastoma, a type of brain tumor, coupled with extensive research in glioblastoma treatment, and the rising adoption of chemotherapy are expected to fuel the growth of the global glioblastoma market. However, the high cost of drugs and the failure of drug candidates in clinical trial phases are anticipated to hamper the market growth.

Market Dynamics

The increasing incidence rate of glioblastoma is expected to fuel the growth of the global glioblastoma market. According to the statistics published in 2017 by the National Centre for Biotechnology Information (NCBI), glioblastoma has an incidence rate of 3.19 per 100,000 persons in the US. The growing prevalence indirectly increases the healthcare expenditure of the people as well as the government. This motivates the players operating in the market to come up with alternatives for the treatment of glioblastoma. Thus, this is likely to fuel the growth of the global glioblastoma market during the forecast period.

Regional Analysis

The global glioblastoma market, based on region, has been divided into the Americas, Europe, Asia-Pacific, and the Middle East & Africa.

The Americas is likely to dominate the global glioblastoma market. The growth in this region can be attributed to the increased cases of glioblastoma and brain tumors. Moreover, the approval of drugs helps in maximizing the growth of the market in this region.

Europe held a substantial share in the global glioblastoma market. This can be attributed to a large number of clinical trials in the region. For instance, Merck KGaA along with Vaximm GmbH is involved in Phase I and II trials to evaluate the efficacy and safety of VXM01 in combination with Avelumab in patients with resectable and non-resectable progressive glioblastoma following tumor resection and radio-chemotherapy containing temozolomide.

Asia-Pacific is estimated to be the fastest-growing region in the global market. The rise in the improved healthcare infrastructure promises a high level of research on the treatment of glioblastoma in the region.

The glioblastoma market in the Middle East & Africa is expected to witness a modest market growth rate from 2019 to 2025. The Middle East would lead the market growth in this region. Rising awareness regarding health and availability of new treatment methods are expected to drive the market growth during the assessment period.
