Market Definition
Bladder cancer begins when healthy cells in the bladder lining—most commonly urothelial cells—change and grow out of control, forming a mass called a tumor. Urothelial cells also line the renal pelvis and ureters, and urethra. Cancer that develops in the renal pelvis and ureters is also considered a type of urothelial cancer and is often called upper tract urothelial cancer. In most cases, it is treated in much the same way as bladder cancer which is described in this guide. A tumor can be cancerous or benign. A cancerous tumor is malignant, meaning it can grow and spread to other parts of the body. A benign tumor means the tumor can grow but will not spread. Benign bladder tumors are very rare.
Europe Bladder Cancer Diagnostics Market Dynamics
This section deals with understanding the market drivers, advantages, opportunities, restraints, and challenges. All of this is discussed in detail below:
DRIVERS
Rising Incidence of Bladder Cancer Globally
Most gene mutations related to bladder cancer develop during a person's life rather than having been inherited before birth. Some of these acquired gene mutations result from exposure to cancer-causing chemicals or radiation. For instance, chemicals in tobacco smoke can be absorbed into the blood, filtered by the kidneys, and end up in urine, where they can affect bladder cells. Other chemicals may reach the bladder the same way. However, sometimes, gene changes may just be random events that sometimes happen inside a cell without having an outside cause.
Bladder cancer occurs mainly in older people. About 9 out of 10 people with this cancer are over the age of 55. The average age of people when they are diagnosed is 73. The rising cases of bladder cancer among the population are enhancing the use of bladder cancer diagnostic products and hence driving the growth of the bladder cancer diagnostics market.
Rising Awareness for the Early Diagnosis of Bladder Cancer
Bladder cancer awareness month is nationally recognized in the U.S. during the month of May. It aims at bringing together the bladder tumor community to help raise awareness and shine a light on a patient population that is often overlooked. Although bladder cancer is not as common as breast or lung cancer, the need for new and innovative ways to treat bladder tumor patients has never been more critical. Research suggests that more than 720,000 patients in the U.S. are struggling with bladder cancer.
As the current Europe health crisis continues to shift with the impact of COVID-19, the importance of understanding the impacts of patient care, education, and cancer research is becoming more apparent than ever. Looking toward the future, there is still much more groundwork to be done in discovering new and effective drugs for bladder tumor patients, as well as a dire need for continuous education on a multitude of challenges we face when treating bladder cancer.
Bladder cancer awareness month is a movement that is wholly dedicated to these efforts, and even in the midst of a pandemic, the need to help this patient population is still a top priority. Hence, the rising awareness of the early diagnosis of bladder cancer is driving the market's growth.
OPPORTUNITY
Increase in Diagnostic Procedures for Bladder Cancer
Bladder cancer is among the top ten most common cancers globally, causes considerable morbidity and mortality, and is, therefore, a substantial burden for healthcare systems. Several techniques used to diagnose bladder cancer include ultrasound, Computerized Tomography (CT) scans, Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI), and, sometimes, Positron Emission Tomography (PET) scans.
Treatment for bladder cancer with a slow growth rate may involve monitoring. Chemotherapy for malignant is occasionally combined with radiation therapy and stem cell transplant. People prefer the treatment and getting diagnosed more. Also, the increasing cancer rates have been a boosting factor for the increasing diagnostic product approval.
RESTRAINT / CHALLENGE
Side Effects of Bladder Cancer Treatment Drugs & Therapies
Chemotherapy (chemo) uses anti-cancer drugs that are usually given into a vein (IV) or taken by mouth. These drugs enter the bloodstream and reach almost all areas of the body. However, many chemo drugs aren't able to enter the bladder and reach tumor cells. Bacillus Calmette-Guerin (BCG) is the most common intravesical immunotherapy for treating early-stage bladder cancer. BCG is a germ that's related to the one that causes Tuberculosis (TB), but it doesn't usually cause serious diseases. When BCG is put into the bladder as a liquid through a catheter, it helps "turn on" the immune system cells there, which then attack the bladder cancer cells.
Chemo drugs can cause side effects. These depend on the type and dose of drugs and how long treatment lasts. Common side effects can include hair loss, mouth sores, loss of appetite, nausea & vomiting, diarrhea, increased chance of infections (from having too few white blood cells), easy bruising or bleeding (from having too few blood platelets), fatigue (from having too few red blood cells, changes in metabolism or other factors). Some chemo drugs can also cause other, less common side effects. For instance, cisplatin and carboplatin can also cause kidney damage and hearing loss. Sometimes, the doses of the drugs may need to be reduced, or treatment may need to be delayed or stopped to prevent the effects from getting worse. Hence, the side effects of bladder cancer treatment drugs & therapies may restrain the growth of the Europe bladder cancer diagnostics market.
Post-COVID-19 Impact on the Europe Bladder Cancer Diagnostics Market
