Neuroblastoma Market Scenario
The neuroblastoma market is expected to grow steadily over the forecast period. It is projected that the market held a market value of USD 2.60 billion in 2016 and is projected to grow at a CAGR of 3.7% over the forecast period. Neuroblastoma is a common cancer detected in infants. Neuroblastoma develops from immature nerve cells found in various parts of the body. It most commonly occurs in children or young ones below 5 years old. The patient having neuroblastoma may cause symptoms such as backbone pain, weight loss, abdominal pain, enlarged stomach, bulging eyes, weight, crankiness, anemia, fever, bone pain, dark circles around the eyes, weakness, high blood pressure, and constipation or diarrhea.
The factors such as a mutation in germline cells, change in lifestyle and family history of neuroblastoma may cause this disease. In some cases, it may cause due to the use of fertility drugs, maternal use of hair dye, infection, and, atopy. According to the American Childhood Cancer Organization and the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) 2016 report release, it was estimated that approximately 80,000 deaths are caused by childhood cancer globally. Such an increasing case of childhood cancer every year may support this market positively. However, due to the late effects associated with neuroblastoma treatment such as loss of some organ function or hearing loss and others may restrain the neuroblastoma market growth. Also, the high cost of this therapy over the conventional treatment or side effects associated with the treatment can hamper the market growth. Also, the dearth of skilled healthcare professionals can hamper the market growth over the forecast period.
