The global malignant mesothelioma market size was USD 434.9 million in 2021. As per our research, the market is expected to reach USD 674.2 million in 2028, exhibiting a CAGR of 6.0% during the forecast period. The global COVID-19 pandemic has been unprecedented and staggering, with the malignant mesothelioma market experiencing lower-than-anticipated demand across all regions compared to pre-pandemic levels. The sudden rise in CAGR is attributable to the market's growth and demand returning to pre-pandemic levels once the pandemic is over.

Malignant mesothelioma is a rare and aggressive form of cancer that primarily affects the mesothelium, a thin layer of tissue that covers the majority of our internal organs. The disease is most commonly associated with exposure to asbestos, a mineral fiber that was once widely used in industries such as construction, shipbuilding, and manufacturing.

The market is expected to rise with a substantial growth rate during the forecast 2022-2028 due to the incidence and prevalence of the disease, advancements in diagnostic techniques, treatment options, and research and development efforts. Additionally, the market is bifurcated by type, by application, by regional expansion of the market. Based on the type of treatment, the market is split into oral and parenteral. While the hospital is the largest application.  

 COVID-19 Impact: Pandemic Delayed Diagnoses & Treatment due to Diverted Health Resources

Driving Factors

"Increasing Incidence and Prevalence of the Disease Lift the Growth of the Market"

The major factor which drives the market growth is the increasing incidence and prevalence of the disease. Despite the declining use of asbestos, there is still a significant population at risk due to past exposures. The incidence of malignant mesothelioma continues to be a leading factor for the market, as the disease affects individuals exposed to asbestos several decades ago.

"Rising Development in Diagnostic Techniques Support the Market Progress"

Advancements in diagnostic techniques are the second most significant factor which aids to identify the disease initially through which it can be cured on time. Improvements in diagnostic methods, such as imaging technologies (e.g., CT scans, MRI) and biomarker testing, have enhanced the early detection and accurate diagnosis of malignant mesothelioma. These advancements drive the demand for diagnostic tools and services in the market.

Restraining Factors

"Limited Treatment Options Can Restrict the Market Expansion"

Malignant mesothelioma is a challenging cancer to treat, and the available treatment options are often limited. The lack of curative therapies and the limited efficacy of current treatments can restrain market growth, as it may lead to a sense of therapeutic nihilism among healthcare providers and patients.
