Amifostine (Ethiofos) is a cytoprotective adjuvant used in cancer chemotherapy and radiotherapy involving DNA-binding chemotherapeutic agents. It is marketed by Clinigen under the trade name Ethyol. In 2024, global Amifostine production reached approximately 4.68 M unit, with an average global market price of around US$ 22 per unit.
The amifostine market is primarily shaped by its role as a cytoprotective agent used alongside chemotherapy and radiotherapy to reduce toxic side effects such as xerostomia and myelosuppression. Its clinical application is most notable in cancer care, particularly for head and neck cancers, though off-label exploration in other areas has also contributed to steady demand. The growing incidence of cancer worldwide, coupled with the rising adoption of supportive care therapies, supports market expansion. Additionally, increasing awareness of treatment-related quality-of-life issues and hospital protocols emphasizing patient safety have sustained the relevance of amifostine in oncology.
At the same time, the market faces headwinds from high treatment costs, limited availability in some regions, and the emergence of alternative protective agents or treatment regimens with fewer side effects. Patent expiries and the entry of generics have led to greater price competition, particularly in emerging markets where affordability drives uptake. Opportunities lie in expanding access through generics, advancing formulations to reduce adverse reactions such as hypotension and nausea, and integrating amifostine into broader supportive oncology care strategies. Overall, while niche compared to mainstream oncology drugs, the amifostine market remains stable, supported by its unique protective benefits in cancer treatment.
