Wilms tumor, also known as nephroblastoma, is a form of kidney cancer that primarily affects children, most commonly under the age of 5. The tumor originates in the kidneys, which are responsible for filtering waste from the blood and producing urine. Wilms tumor is marked by the abnormal growth of kidney cells and can present with symptoms such as an abdominal mass, pain, fever, hematuria (blood in the urine), and elevated blood pressure.
Note that the outlook for this market is being affected by rapid changes in trade relations and tariffs globally. The report will be updated prior to delivery to reflect the latest status, including revised forecasts and quantified impact analysis. The report's Recommendations and Conclusions sections will be updated to give strategies for entities dealing with the fast-moving international environment.
The two main types of wilms tumor are favorable histology and anaplastic histology. Favorable histology indicates a better prognosis and a strong response to treatment, with high success rates typically achieved through surgery and chemotherapy. The tumor is classified into stages I through V and is diagnosed using methods such as physical examinations, imaging tests, and laboratory tests. Treatment options include surgery, chemotherapy, and radiation therapy. The disease is managed across various end-users, including cancer research institutes, diagnostic laboratories, hospitals, and other healthcare facilities.

The wilms tumor market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $1.64 billion in 2024 to $1.72 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.0%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to increasing awareness about early cancer diagnosis, increasing government initiatives, rising prevalence of genetic predisposition, rising investments in pediatric oncology drug discovery, and rising healthcare expenditure on pediatric oncology treatments.
The wilms tumor market size is expected to see steady growth in the next few years. It will grow to $2.07 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 4.8%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to a growing focus on personalized medicine, increased use of radiotherapy techniques, a rising prevalence of lifestyle-related risk factors, an increase in the number of pediatric oncologists, and the expansion of awareness campaigns by healthcare organizations. Key trends anticipated during the forecast period include the development of CAR-T cell therapies, the introduction of novel chemotherapy regimens, the expansion of combination therapies, advancements in biomarker-driven diagnostics, and the integration of wearable health monitoring devices.
The growing incidence of pediatric cancer is expected to drive the expansion of the wilms tumor market in the coming years. Pediatric cancer refers to cancers occurring in children aged 0 to 14, characterized by the abnormal growth of cells in various organs and tissues. The rising prevalence is linked to factors such as environmental pollutants, genetic predisposition, infections, and immune system issues. These cases offer valuable insights into early diagnosis, genetic factors, and targeted treatments, contributing to higher survival rates and improved quality of life for affected children. For instance, in January 2025, the Cancer Network, a US-based cancer research organization, projected that approximately 9,550 children (aged 0-14 years) would be diagnosed with cancer in 2025, with an estimated 1,050 deaths. Thus, the increasing rate of pediatric cancer is fueling the growth of the Wilms tumor market.
Increasing healthcare expenditure is anticipated to accelerate the growth of the wilms tumor market. Healthcare expenditure refers to the total financial investment in medical services, equipment, drugs, and healthcare infrastructure over a specific time period. The upward trend in spending is driven by a higher prevalence of chronic diseases and a growing need for advanced treatment options. Enhanced healthcare spending facilitates better treatment of Wilms tumor by enabling early diagnosis, access to advanced therapies, and specialized medical care ultimately improving survival outcomes. It also supports ongoing research, innovation in treatment methods, and accessibility to targeted, affordable drugs. For example, in May 2024, the UK's Office for National Statistics reported a 5.6% nominal increase in healthcare spending from 2022 to 2023, compared to a 0.9% increase in 2022. As such, rising healthcare expenditure is contributing significantly to the growth of the Wilms tumor market.
In August 2023, the Kidney Cancer Association (KCA), a US-based organization committed to supporting kidney cancer patients, partnered with the Wilms Cancer Foundation (WCF) to enhance global initiatives in pediatric kidney cancer awareness, research, and treatment. The collaboration is focused on encouraging international cooperation, improving resources for healthcare providers, advancing early detection strategies, and promoting policy reforms aimed at better outcomes for pediatric kidney cancer. The Wilms Cancer Foundation, based in the US, advocates for children, families, and healthcare institutions affected by Wilms tumors, working to improve care and support across the board.
