Abstract
Breast cancer is the second most common type of cancer after lung cancer
worldwide and the fifth most common cause of cancer death. It is found more in
women as compared to men. Worldwide more than one million new cases of breast
cancer are found every year. New breast cancer cases are mostly found in North
America.
Breast cancer is usually found in women over the age of 40 years. Breast
cancer cases have risen about 30% in the past 25 years in western countries
like the US and Europe. Breast cancer market is comprised of two segments -
diagnostic and therapy. The key drivers of breast cancer market are aging
population, obesity and family history among others.
The stages of breast cancer are of critical importance and decide the
treatment method and the extent to which it can be cured. Mammography is
believed to find 85% to 90% of breast cancers in women over 50, and can
discover a lesion one to four years before a lump can be felt. In case of
patients with dense breast tissue, breast implants or patients who are
breastfeeding, mammography cannot produce clear images and therefore, in such
cases, ultrasound or MRI is recommended. Biopsy is used for the diagnosis of
breast cancer once a lesion is detected in screening. For treatment of breast
cancer, surgery is used first and then drugs or radiation therapy or both are
used.
The major players of breast cancer market are strengthening their networks
through international alliances, agreements, strategic acquisitions, exploring
new markets and R&D initiatives that will help in more effective diagnosis and
treatment of breast cancer.
This report provides an overview of the breast cancer, its types and stages,
and incidence rates. The markets for diagnosis and treatment of breast cancer
have been analyzed. Markets for diagnosis and treatment like, mammography,
biopsy, chemotherapy, radiotherapy and drugs have also been discussed. The
report also analyzes the drivers, issues and trends in the breast care market.
The major players in the market are profiled along with their key business
strategies.
