The multiple myeloma market valued for $19,666.74 million in 2021 and is estimated to reach $53,521.76 million by 2031, exhibiting a CAGR of 10.5% from 2022 to 2031. Multiple myeloma is a cancer that forms in a type of white blood cell called a plasma cell. Healthy plasma cells contribute to combat infections by synthesizing antibodies that can recognize and inhibit the growth of microorganisms. Cancerous plasma cells build up in the bone marrow and push out healthy blood cells in multiple myeloma. Various therapies are available to treat multiple myeloma, which includes targeted therapy, immunotherapy, chemotherapy, corticosteroids, bone marrow transplant, and radiation therapy.
The growth of the global multiple myeloma market is driven by increase in number of market players who manufacture drugs for multiple myeloma. In addition, rise in number of product launch and product approvals for multiple myeloma drugs is expected to propel the growth of market. For instance, in January 2022, Bristol-Myers Squibb, a pharmaceutical company, announced that Japan's Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare approved Abecma (idecabtagene vicleucel), a B-cell maturation antigen (BCMA)-directed chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cell immunotherapy, for the treatment of adult patients with relapsed or refractory (R/R) multiple myeloma. In addition, rise in prevalence of multiple myeloma boosts the demand for multiple myeloma drugs, thereby fueling the market growth. For instance, in 2020, according to the International Agency for Research on Cancer, around 1,76,404 cases of multiple myeloma were reported across the globe.
Moreover, increase in expenditure by government for healthcare services is expected to propel the adoption of cancer therapies and cancer medication by hospitals and clinics, thereby fueling the market growth. For instance, as per the Office for National Statistics, in 2021, it was reported that total healthcare expenditure in the UK was $300,07 billion, which is an increase in nominal terms of 7.4% on spending in 2020. Moreover, according to the Centers for Medicare and Medical Services Government (CMS), it was reported that the national healthcare expenditure (NHE) grew by 2.7% to $4.3 trillion in 2021, or $12,914 per person, and accounted for 18.3% of the GDP).
On the other hand, high cost of multiple myeloma drugs, radiation therapy, and stem cell transplantation as well as side effects associated with the drugs hinder the growth of the multiple myeloma market.
However, increased demand for medical services in the developed countries such as U.S., Canada, & Germany and high market growth potential in emerging economies are expected to create immense opportunities for the market during the forecast period.
The global multiple myeloma market is segmented into drug type, disease type, end user, and region. Depending on drug type, the market is divided into chemotherapy, protease inhibitors, monoclonal antibody, and others.
