Pet cancer therapeutics involve the use of various treatments and medications to manage or cure cancer in pets. The choice of therapeutics depends on several factors such as the type and stage of cancer, as well as the pet's age and overall health.
The main types of pet cancer therapeutics are tailored to specific cancer types, including melanoma, mast cell cancer, lymphoma, and mammary and squamous cell cancer. Melanoma is a type of cancer that originates from pigment-producing cells called melanocytes. These therapeutics can be administered through various routes, including oral and injection methods, tailored for dogs, cats, and other animals. Different therapies employed in pet cancer treatment include chemotherapy, radiation therapy, immunotherapy, tomo therapy, and others. These therapies are utilized by veterinary hospitals, clinical pharmacies, retail pharmacies, online pharmacies, and other healthcare facilities focused on pet health.
The pet cancer therapeutics market research report is one of a series of new reports from The Business Research Company that provides pet cancer therapeutics market statistics, including pet cancer therapeutics industry global market size, regional shares, competitors with a pet cancer therapeutics market share, detailed pet cancer therapeutics market segments, market trends and opportunities, and any further data you may need to thrive in the pet cancer therapeutics industry. This pet cancer therapeutics market research report delivers a complete perspective of everything you need, with an in-depth analysis of the current and future scenario of the industry.
The pet cancer therapeutics market size has grown rapidly in recent years. It will grow from $0.39 billion in 2024 to $0.43 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 10.8%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to rise in pet ownership, advancements in veterinary medicine, increased awareness of pet health, humanization of pets, expansion of veterinary services.
The pet cancer therapeutics market size is expected to see rapid growth in the next few years. It will grow to $0.65 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 10.7%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to growing aging pet population, advancements in cancer treatment, rising veterinary oncology services, pet insurance and healthcare plans, global expansion of pet care services. Major trends in the forecast period include rise in nutraceuticals and integrative therapies, increased availability of targeted diagnostic tests, collaboration between veterinary and human oncology, introduction of novel chemotherapeutic agents, growing awareness and pet owner education.
The anticipated growth in pet healthcare expenditure is set to drive the expansion of the pet cancer therapeutics market. Pet healthcare expenditure encompasses the funds allocated for veterinary services, medications, and other healthcare-related costs for pets. The rising trend of pet owners' willingness to invest in their pets' well-being is reflected in the increased expenditure on pet healthcare, leading to a higher demand for pet cancer therapeutics. For example, the North American Pet Health Insurance Association's (NAPHIA) 2023 State of the Industry Report revealed a 22% increase in the total number of insured pets in the U.S. by the end of 2022, reaching 4.8 million, compared to 2021. This surge in pet healthcare expenditure is a driving force for the pet cancer therapeutics market.
The growth of the pet cancer therapeutics market is expected to be propelled by the increasing prevalence of pet cancer. Pet cancer involves abnormal and uncontrolled cell growth in domesticated animals, leading to tumor formation. The rising incidence of pet cancer is attributed to environmental toxins, pollutants, and genetic and lifestyle factors. Consequently, there is an escalating demand for advanced and effective cancer therapeutics for pets. According to the Veterinary Cancer Society's (VCS) 2022 predictions, approximately 1 in 4 dogs is diagnosed with cancer during their lifetime, with cancer being a primary cause of death among older pets. Additionally, the National Cancer Institute anticipates approximately 6 million new cancer cases in pets annually, with a projected increase in the coming years. The increasing prevalence of pet cancer is poised to drive the growth of the pet cancer therapeutics market.
Leading companies in the pet cancer therapeutics market are focusing on developing epigenetic technologies to enhance the efficacy of treatments and improve precision in targeting cancer cells, ultimately leading to better outcomes for pets diagnosed with cancer. Epigenetic technology involves techniques that modify gene expression without altering the underlying DNA sequence, thereby influencing cellular behavior and therapeutic results. For example, in April 2024, VolitionRx Limited, a US-based multinational epigenetics company, launched the Nu.Q Vet Cancer Test. This test operates on the Element i+ Analyzer and delivers rapid results-typically within approximately six minutes. It employs an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay to detect circulating nucleosomes in the blood, which can serve as indicators of cancer presence.
Strategic partnerships are a significant approach adopted by major companies in the pet cancer therapeutics market to achieve superior disease control. This collaborative strategy involves leveraging each other's strengths and resources to attain mutual benefits and success. One such collaboration occurred in June 2022, when Germany-based pharmaceutical company Boehringer Ingelheim partnered with U.S.-based biopharmaceutical company CarthroniX. The collaboration focuses on identifying new small molecules to target cancers in dogs, potentially offering superior disease control. CarthroniX will supply the small molecules for evaluation by Boehringer Ingelheim, emphasizing their commitment to advancing oncology research in animal health and exploring new therapeutic options for the treatment of canine cancer.
In June 2024, Lantheus, a US-based company specializing in the development and commercialization of innovative imaging products and radiopharmaceuticals for diagnostic purposes in healthcare, acquired Life Molecular Imaging GmbH for an undisclosed sum. This acquisition is intended to enhance Lantheus's portfolio of diagnostic imaging solutions, expand its capabilities in molecular imaging, and strengthen its position within the healthcare market. Life Molecular Imaging GmbH, based in Germany, is dedicated to advancing imaging technologies, particularly in the realm of molecular imaging.
