What Are The Key Drivers Fueling Growth In The Prostate Cancer Drugs Market?
The escalating number of elderly males significantly impacts the growth of the prostate cancer drugs market, since prostate cancer is predominantly present in men over 60. ACL (Administration For Community Living), a US government organization, predicts a 21.6% rise in the elderly population by 2040. Within this demographic, men are more susceptible to prostate cancer than women. To illustrate, recent data from January 2022 from the American Cancer Society, indicates that prostate cancer is prevalent in older and non-hispanic black men, with around 60% of cases diagnosed in men who are 65 or older. Consequently, the rise in the elderly male population is a major catalyst for the expansion of the prostate cancer market.

How Are Emerging Trends Reshaping The Dynamics Of The Prostate Cancer Drugs Market?
Emerging developments in the prostate cancer treatment market suggest a shift toward combination therapy. This is primarily due to the ineffectiveness of monotherapy in treating some prostate cancer cases. Accordingly, prostate cancer drug firms are allocating more resources to combination therapies. A notable development is Pfizer's announcement of its Phase 3 PROSPER trial outcomes in patients with non-metastatic (M0) Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer (CRPC). The trial found that the combined use of XTANDI (enzalutamide) and androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) reduced the risk of progressing to metastases or death by 71% in comparison to using ADT alone. Other combination treatments, such as a co-use of radiation therapy and androgen deprivation therapy for recurrent prostate cancer, and application of chemotherapy drug docetaxel (Taxotere) together with ADT, are also being utilized in prostate cancer treatments.
