Myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) is a group of malignant hematopoietic stem cell disorders characterized by ineffective hematopoiesis and peripheral blood cytopenias. MDS treatments aims to slow or stop the progression of the disease. Treatment options include chemotherapy drugs, targeted therapies, hematopoietic stem cell transplantation and supportive care therapies. Chemotherapy drugs are the most widely used treatment and includes azacitidine, decitabine and lenalidomide. Targeted therapies involving growth factors that stimulate blood cell production such as erythropoietin and interleukin 11 are also employed.
The global Myelodysplastic Syndrome Treatment Market is estimated to be valued at US$ 3,265.6 million in 2023 and is expected to exhibit a CAGR of 9.3% over the forecast period 2023 to 2030, as highlighted in a new report published by Coherent Market Insights.
Market key trends:
The rising prevalence of myelodysplastic syndrome is one of the major trends influencing market growth. According to the National Cancer Institute, nearly 10,000 new cases of MDS are diagnosed each year in the United States. Factors such as genetic mutations, smoking, obesity, excessive alcohol consumption and previous treatment with chemotherapy or radiation increase the risk of developing MDS. Increasing exposure to these risk factors is contributing to the rising disease burden. Another key trend is the fast-track approval system for MDS drugs by regulatory agencies which is encouraging drug development activity. The FDA and EMA have designated fast-track status for several pipeline drugs providing an opportunity for early market introduction. This is expected to widen treatment options and further fuel market revenue over the forecast period.
