The closed system transfer devices market has seen considerable growth due to a variety of factors.
• The closed system transfer devices market has experienced rapid growth in recent years. It will grow from $1.04 billion in 2024 to $1.19 billion in 2025, at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 14.5%.
This growth is due to the rising number of oncology drug approvals, increased focus on occupational safety, the need to reduce needlestick injuries and exposure to hazardous drugs, greater awareness of the dangers of cytotoxic drug exposure, and a growing chemotherapy patient population.
The closed system transfer devices market is expected to maintain its strong growth trajectory in upcoming years.
• The closed system transfer devices market is projected to reach $2.03 billion by 2029 at a 14.3% CAGR. Growth is driven by the increasing occurrence of cancer, need for safe management of drugs, and the rise in drug sanctions for cancer. Trends include product launches, safety features, and membrane-to-membrane systems.
The increasing occurrence of cancer is projected to boost the growth of the closed-system transfer devices market. Cancer, a condition marked by abnormal cell growth, is rising due to lifestyle, environmental factors, and infections. Closed-system transfer devices are essential for safely handling and administering chemotherapy drugs, protecting both healthcare workers and patients. In February 2024, the World Health Organization forecasted that global cancer cases would exceed 35 million by 2050, a 77% increase from 2022. This surge in cancer cases is expected to drive the demand for closed-system transfer devices.

Leading companies in the closed system transfer devices (CSTD) market are focusing on creating advanced syringe units to improve safety, enhance user experience, reduce contamination risks, and comply with strict healthcare regulations. A syringe unit for full volume use is designed to deliver the entire amount of medication or liquid without requiring mixing or dilution. For example, in October 2023, Equashield, a US-based medical device company, introduced the EQUASHIELD Syringe Unit, which received FDA approval for full-volume use. This design ensures safer handling of hazardous drugs, preventing vapor escape and plunger contamination, making it an affordable solution for compounding and administering medications.
