Rise in Pancreatic Cancer Cases Due to Acute Pancreatitis Fuels the North America Acute Pancreatitis Market
Pancreatic cancer is the fourth leading cause of cancer-related mortality in Western countries. According to the American Cancer Society, Cancer Facts & Figures 2022, the mortality rate of pancreatic cancer is predicted to be the second highest among all cancer-led mortality rates in the US by 2030. It is more likely to progress if not detected early when the tumor is resectable. According to an article published in the National Library of Medicine in 2021, only ~15% of pancreatic tumors are resectable at diagnosis, limiting five-year survival to 8%. However, the lack of early symptoms results in poor diagnosis and low resectability of these tumors. Acute pancreatitis may cause pancreatic cancer as it is an early symptom of pancreatic cancer, nearly 1% of acute pancreatitis admissions result in pancreatic cancer diagnoses. It takes several months for these patients to be diagnosed with pancreatic cancer after acute pancreatitis is diagnosed, but some suffer longer diagnostic delays due to initial misdiagnosis, which may hinder their recovery. Recurrent occurrence of acute pancreatitis leads to chronic pancreatitis, which may further increase the risk of pancreatic cancer.
According to the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases, acute pancreatitis leads to ~275,000 hospital admissions each year, and this number has been increasing in the US. ~35-40% of acute pancreatitis cases in the US are due to gallstones, while alcohol consumption is the cause of 30% of cases. Pancreatitis is usually mild in 80% of patients who are admitted, and most can be discharged within a few days of their hospitalization. Acute pancreatitis is associated with a mortality rate of ~2% and has a relapse rate between 0.6% and 5.6%. Alcohol-related pancreatitis has the highest rate of relapse. According to an article published in Lancet Gastroenterology Hepatology in 2022, the global pooled incidence of acute pancreatitis is 34 cases per 100,000 per year. North America has 58.2 cases per 100,000 people per year (the US has 58.2 cases per 100,000 people per year) while Europe has 24.7 and 15.0 cases per 100,000 people in Sweden and Denmark, respectively.
Acute pancreatitis, which causes the release of digestive enzymes into the pancreatic interstitial space instead of the pancreatic duct lumen, could be an early indicator of pancreatic cancer due to tumor obstruction of the pancreatic duct. Acute pancreatitis is a painful condition, so patients seek medical care sooner, which could lead to an early cancer diagnosis. Therefore, rising cases of pancreatic cancer due to acute pancreatitis boosts the growth of the North America acute pancreatitis market.
