Anaplastic astrocytoma is a rare and malignant brain tumor that originates from astrocytes, which are the supportive cells in the nervous system. This condition can lead to neurological symptoms such as headaches, seizures, behavioral changes, and motor deficits, and is typically managed through a combination of surgical procedures, radiation therapy, and chemotherapy.
Anaplastic astrocytoma is categorized into four main grades such as Grade I, Grade II, Grade III, and Grade IV. Grade I anaplastic astrocytoma tumors are the least aggressive and considered benign. They are typically treated with surgical excision, routine monitoring, and follow-up procedures. Treatment options for anaplastic astrocytoma also include surgery, chemotherapy, and radiation, which are further classified into pre-registration and clinical trial phases. These treatments are administered by medical facilities such as hospitals and clinics, and the medications can be obtained from retail pharmacies and online pharmacies.

The anaplastic astrocytoma market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $0.44 billion in 2024 to $0.47 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.8%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to growing adoption of targeted therapies, patient advocacy and awareness, clinical trial expansion, healthcare policy and funding, government initiatives.
The anaplastic astrocytoma market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $0.62 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.0%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to increasing research and development activities, growing demand for personalized medicine, growing investments, increasing awareness of the disease, increasing stress and depression. Major trends in the forecast period include advancements in neurosurgery, radiation therapy advancements, clinical trials and research, adoption of telemedicine and remote monitoring technologies, advancements in imaging, biotechnology and drug development.
The anaplastic astrocytoma market is anticipated to experience growth due to the increasing occurrence of both primary malignant and non-malignant brain tumors. Brain tumors are abnormal growths within the brain that can be categorized as either cancerous (malignant) and invasive or non-cancerous (benign) and non-invasive, with varying levels of aggressiveness and potential to spread. Anaplastic astrocytoma treatment involves the removal of the tumor and surrounding affected tissue while preserving brain function. For instance, as reported by the American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO), a non-profit organization based in the United States, it is estimated that around 24,810 adults in the U.S. will receive diagnoses of primary cancerous brain and spinal cord tumors in March 2023, with 14,280 cases in men and 10,530 in women. Consequently, the rising incidence of primary malignant and non-malignant brain tumors is poised to be a driving factor for the growth of the anaplastic astrocytoma market in the future.
The anticipated growth in the anaplastic astrocytoma market is expected to be driven by government funding for brain cancer research. Government funding involves financial support provided by government entities at various levels (federal, state, or local) to support organizations, initiatives, projects, programs, or individuals. Numerous government authorities are actively funding research related to brain cancer treatments, including anaplastic astrocytoma. For example, in June 2023, the Australian Department of Health and Aged Care initiated The Australian Brain Cancer Mission, allocating $136.66 million to support brain cancer research. The mission aims to double survival rates and enhance the quality of life for brain cancer patients, including those with anaplastic astrocytoma. As a result, government funding for brain cancer research is a key driver for the anaplastic astrocytoma market.
Prominent companies in the anaplastic astrocytoma market are actively engaged in pioneering novel treatment options with the aim of enhancing effectiveness, reducing side effects, and ultimately improving patient outcomes. For example, in June 2022, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, a federal agency based in the United States, granted accelerated approval for an innovative treatment combination featuring the oral medications dabrafenib (Tafinlar) and trametinib (Mekinist) for advanced brain tumors characterized by the BRAF V600E mutation. This approval applies to both adult and pediatric patients with high- and low-grade gliomas that have shown progression following prior treatments. The BRAF V600E mutation is prevalent in various types of gliomas, including low-grade gliomas, pleomorphic xanthoastrocytomas (PXA), gangliogliomas, and pilocytic astrocytomas. The decision to grant approval was based on clinical trials of the Tafinlar-Mekinist combination therapy, which demonstrated tumor shrinkage benefits for both adult and pediatric glioma patients. High-grade glioma patients exhibited a 33% response rate, low-grade glioma patients showed a 50% response rate, and pediatric glioma patients demonstrated a 25% response rate.
