Global Urinalysis Market

The bladder cancer drugs market consists of sales of bladder cancer drugs. Bladder cancer is cancerous tissue that occurs on the lining of the bladder. These cancerous tissues are also called tumors, and they have the potential to spread to other nearby cells and tissues if not treated soon. The bladder cancer market consists of treatments for bladder cancer types such as urothelial carcinoma, squamous cell bladder cancer, adenocarcinoma, and others. The main types of bladder cancer drugs are non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer and muscle-invasive bladder cancer. NMIBC (non-muscle invasive bladder cancer) is a type of cancer that develops in the tissue that lines the inner surface of the bladder.There is no involvement of the bladder muscle. The different applications include low-grade tumors, and high-grade tumours and are distributed through various channels such as hospital pharmacies, retail pharmacies, and others. The bladder cancer drugs market research report is one of a series of new reports from The Business Research Company that provides bladder cancer drugs market statistics, including bladder cancer drugs industry global market size, regional shares, competitors with a bladder cancer drugs market share, detailed bladder cancer drugs market segments, market trends and opportunities, and any further data you may need to thrive in the bladder cancer drugs industry. This bladder cancer drugs market research report delivers a complete perspective of everything you need, with an in-depth analysis of the current and future scenario of the industry. The global bladder cancer drugs market size will grow from $2.32 billion in 2022 to $2.66 billion in 2023 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 14.4%. The Russia-Ukraine war disrupted the chances of global economic recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic, at least in the short term. The war between these two countries has led to economic sanctions on multiple countries, a surge in commodity prices, and supply chain disruptions, causing inflation across goods and services and affecting many markets across the globe. The global bladder cancer drugs market size is expected to grow to $4.31 billion in 2027 at a CAGR of 12.9%. The number of bladder cancer cases has been on the rise. Factors such as unhygienic workplace exposures, an increase in smoking habits, and consuming water that contains Arsenic increase the chances of blood cancer. According to the American Cancer Society, there were 81,400 new cases of bladder cancer in 2020 out of which a total of 62,100 cases were in men and 19,300 cases in women. This increased incidence of bladder cancer increases the demand for bladder cancer drugs, contributing to the growth of the market. The increasing use of biologics and targeted therapies restrains the bladder cancer drugs market. Biologic therapy uses a body’s immune system to fight cancer rather than chemical drugs which reduces the body’s immune power. For instance, FDA cleared targeted therapy, Tecentriq, the first product in its class (PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors) approved to treat bladder cancer. The advantages of biological drugs and targeted therapies over conventional chemical drugs might negatively influence the market. Major organizations are investing in the research to utilize nano-technology as a means to deliver drugs into the human body. Nanotechnology is the design, characterization, production, and application of devices, structures, and systems by controlled manipulation of size and shape at the nanometer scale. This method of delivery helps doctors to offer a simple and effective way of treating bladder cancer in their patients because the nanoparticles used in the treatment can attack the cancerous cells directly without harming the surrounding cells. For instance, the Center for Drug Research And Development in Canada pledged a $1.2 million investment in Sitka biopharma to help with development activities for clinical trials of STK-01, a product to treat bladder cancer using nanotechnology. The bladder cancer drugs market is regulated by government agencies such as European Medicines Agency (EMA), USFDA (the US food and drug ministration), and others which lay down policies and guidelines that a manufacturer should follow. For instance, in the USA, FDA has formulated three main programs for expediting drugs that could be used to treat serious conditions, namely the fast-track program, the breakthrough drug program, and the accelerated approval program. Though these three programs are used in expediting the approval of drugs, there are subtle differences. Fast track status is given to a drug that can treat a serious condition and clinical/non-clinical data prove its potential to cater to unmet medical needs. Breakthrough therapy status is given to a drug that can treat a serious condition and there is proper clinical evidence of it being better than available treatments. Accelerated approval status is given to a drug that has breakthrough therapy status along with a surrogate endpoint that can predict its effectiveness. A surrogate endpoint is an indicator or sign that can be used to tell if a treatment method is effective or not. For example, in cancer treatments, a shrinking tumor can be used as an indicator of cancer treatment effectiveness than checking for the time of tumor survival. Surrogate endpoints are used in clinical trials to save time and are especially used in the fast expedition of life-saving drugs. FDA expedites drugs under all three programs within 60 days of filing a request for consideration. The use of gene therapy is a key trend gaining popularity in the bladder cancer drug market. Gene therapy is a medical approach that treats or prevents disease by correcting the underlying genetic problem by altering a person's genetic makeup. For example, in December 2022, the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA), a federal agency of the Department of Health and Human Services in USA, approved Adstiladrin (nadofaragene firadenovec-vncg), a non-replicating (cannot multiply in human cells) adenoviral vector based gene therapy indicated for the treatment of adult patients with high-risk Bacillus Calmette-Guérin (BCG)-unresponsive non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC) with carcinoma in situ (CIS) with or without papillary tumors. In August 2022, Merck & Co., a US-based pharmaceutical company, acquired Seagen for a deal amount of $40 billion. Through this acquisition, Merck & Co. expands its business in oncology.

The war between these two countries has led to economic sanctions on multiple countries, a surge in commodity prices, and supply chain disruptions, affecting many markets across the globe. The pharmaceutical drugs market is expected to reach $1,848.49 billion in 2027 at a CAGR of 11.4%. The rise in sedentary jobs, busy lifestyles, and changing consumer preferences are affecting the disease profile of the world population, especially non-communicable diseases such as cancer, diabetes, and cardiovascular diseases. Long working hours, less physical activity, and unhealthy eating and drinking habits are major causes of chronic diseases such as diabetes. According to the World Health Organization, chronic disease prevalence rose by 57% globally, in the year 2020. China and India together had about 193.4 million diabetic patients in 2019 and India is expected to have about 101 million diabetic patients by 2030, thereby increasing the need for biologics drugs for diabetic patients. These factors are expected to increase the patient pool globally, thereby driving the pharmaceutical drug market during the forecast period. Interest rates globally are forecasted to rise in most of the developing and developed economies, during the forecast period, this is expected to limit new investments in the market. Most countries across the world are raising interest rates to control inflation and also to limit the flow of capital out of the country. This is likely to affect new investments in terms of expansion, research, and development of new products. For instance, the US interest rates rose to 3.5% by 2021. These factors are expected to hurt the market as borrowing money becomes expensive, thereby affecting the pharmaceuticals market growth. Early Rx-to-OTC switch, or switching the product from prescription to non-prescription status, is a key trend in the dermatology drugs market. Traditionally, the Rx-to-OTC status conversion was generally observed at a phase nearing the patent expiry or after. However, forward-thinking companies are now looking at switching from Rx-to-OTC well in advance of the patent expiry of the drug. This helps the manufacturer to capitalize on the market opportunities for the product. Early Rx-to-OTC switching also provides an additional benefit as a way to recover all the expenses incurred on the product by the company. For example, in 2020, FDA has switched three prescription drugs to OTC including Voltaren for arthritis pain, olopatadine hydrochloride 0.1% and 0.2% (Pataday Twice Daily Relief and Pataday Once Daily Relief) for temporary relief of itchy and red eyes due to pollen, ragweed, and grass.

Generic pharmaceuticals refer to a drug that was developed to have the same dosage form, safety, strength, mode of administration, quality, performance attributes, and intended use as an already marketed brand-name drug. The action and clinical benefits of a generic drug are identical to those of a brand-name drug. The three main types of generic pharmaceuticals are biosimilar; simple generic, and super generic. A biosimilar is a biological product that is very similar to a reference biologic and has no clinically significant differences in terms of safety, purity, or potency. The drugs are delivered through oral, injectable, dermal/topical, and inhalers that are used for various therapies such as CNS, cardiovascular, dermatology, genitourinary/hormonal, respiratory, rheumatology, diabetes, and oncology. The various distribution channels involved is hospital pharmacies, retail pharmacies, and online pharmacies. The generic pharmaceuticals market research report is one of a series of new reports from The Business Research Company that provides generic pharmaceuticals market statistics, including generic pharmaceuticals industry global market size, regional shares, competitors with a generic pharmaceuticals market share, detailed generic pharmaceuticals market segments, market trends and opportunities, and any further data you may need to thrive in the generic pharmaceuticals industry. This generic pharmaceuticals market research report delivers a complete perspective of everything you need, with an in-depth analysis of the current and future scenarios of the industry. The global generic pharmaceuticals market grew from $332.43 billion in 2022 to $358.5 billion in 2023 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.8%. The Russia-Ukraine war disrupted the chances of global economic recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic, at least in the short term. The war between these two countries has led to economic sanctions on multiple countries, a surge in commodity prices, and supply chain disruptions, causing inflation across goods and services and affecting many markets across the globe. The generic pharmaceuticals market is expected to grow from $453.19 billion in 2027 at a CAGR of 6.0%. The rising incidence of chronic diseases is one of the major drivers of the generic pharmaceutical market. As more individuals are diagnosed with chronic diseases, they look for more medicines for treatment. Branded drugs come at a premium price, while generic drugs are available at a lower cost and have the same chemical composition as branded drugs. The low cost and same chemical composition and strength of generic drugs make a patient buy generic drugs instead of branded drugs. If it is a chronic disease, the treatment goes on for a longer period, and hence, the sales of generic drugs also increase. For instance, according to the WHO (World Health Organization), over the next 10 years, the number of deaths due to chronic disease is projected to increase by 17%. Also, in 2020, almost 3-quarters of all deaths in the world are due to chronic diseases. The lack of awareness about generic drugs is one of the restraints on the generic pharmaceutical market. The high marketing and advertisement of branded drugs overshadow the availability of generic drugs, which are a substitute for expensive branded drugs. Thus, consumers opt for branded drugs even though the generic drugs carry the same chemical formulation as their counter-branded drugs. According to an article published on CVS HEALTH, many doctors and pharmacists preferred to offer branded drugs to their patients over generic drugs. This prevents the patients to go for generic drugs as they develop a preconceived notion of generic drugs not being at par with branded drugs. For example, according to research conducted by Sahana K Hebbar, in the International Journal of Basic & Clinical Pharmacology, out of 100 patients and 50 non-medical staff, 95% of the patients and 60% of the non-medical staff didn't know about generic drugs. Thus, a lack of awareness about the availability of generic drugs hampers the generic pharmaceutical market. 3D printing technology can transform the manufacturing of drugs in the generic pharmaceutical market. 3D printed pharmaceuticals help improve R&D productivity and deliver new benefits to patients. 3D printing allows the manufacturer to produce drugs with customised size, shape, and texture, which is not possible in traditional manufacturing of generic drugs. 3D printing can help the manufacturer to make generic drugs that have different release dates, appearances, and tastes. For example, GlaxoSmithKline (GSK) completed a study where ultraviolet (UV) and 3D printing were used to manufacture tablets to treat Parkinson's disease. Martin Wallace, director of GSK Technology, said that GSK is investing in 3D printing to manufacture pills and tablets. Also, Aprecia pharmaceutical company launched 'ZipDose' technology, which manufactures 3D printed drugs. The drug manufacturers must comply with the CGMP (Current Good Manufacturing Practice) regulations that come under the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) which includes generic pharmaceuticals. The CGMP regulations require manufacturers to maintain a minimum quality standard for the methods, controls, and facilities used in the manufacturing, packaging, and processing of drug products. Part- 99 of chapter 1 under title 21-Food And Drugs of CFR (Code of Federal Regulations) contains subparts from A to H. The whole part-99 describes the guidelines that need to be followed by drug manufacturers regarding the dissemination of information on human drugs, including biologics, and devices. The guidelines concern the safety, effectiveness, or benefit of use that is not included in the approved labelling for a drug or device approved by the Food and Drug Administration for marketing. The guidelines regulate the information regarding the drugs that should be delivered to the health care practitioner, pharmacy benefit manager, health insurance issuer, group health plan, or federal or state government agency.

The medical equipment market is expected to grow to $922.39 billion in 2027 at a CAGR of 7.3%. The rise in sedentary jobs, busy lifestyles, and changing consumer preferences are affecting the disease profile of the world population, especially non-communicable diseases such as cancer, diabetes, and cardiovascular diseases. Long working hours, less physical activity, and unhealthy eating and drinking habits are major causes of chronic diseases such as diabetes. According to the World Health Organization, chronic disease prevalence is expected to rise by 57% globally, by the year 2020. This is increasing the demand for medical devices used in the diagnosis, prognosis, and treatment of several diseases, thereby driving the demand for medical equipment. These factors are expected to increase the patient pool globally, thereby driving the market during the forecast period. Regulatory changes are likely to lead to increased costs relating to new product development and service offerings to clients. These changes are related to customer data protection such as the European Union's General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), changes to equipment approval procedures, and other regulatory changes. For instance, according to cookieyed data 2021, in the US, PwC reported that 68% of 200 businesses surveyed intended to spend between $1 million and $10 million to comply with GDPR regulations. The GDPR regulation is an EU law on data protection and privacy of individuals residing in the European Union and the European Economic Area (EEA). It also regulates the export of personal data outside the EU and EEA areas. Additionally, the FDA is requesting more clinical data to support claims, therefore increasing the time to process 510(k)s by over 55% over the last decade.

Urinary incontinence & pelvic organ prolapse devices and equipment are used in the treatment of pelvic organ prolapse and urinary incontinence. Urinary incontinence (UI), also known as involuntary urination, is defined as uncontrolled leakage of urine caused by an overactive bladder. Pelvic organ prolapse (POP) is caused by defects in the supporting structures of the vagina. The main types in urinary incontinence and pelvic organ prolapse devices and equipment are urinary incontinence devices and pelvic organ prolapse devices. The devices used to treat urinary incontinence are known as urinary incontinence devices. Artificial urinary sphincters, electrical stimulation devices, urethral slings, and catheters are examples of urinary incontinence devices. Vaginal mesh and vaginal pessaries are pelvic organ prolapse devices. The incontinence types are stress incontinence, urge incontinence, overflow incontinence, and functional incontinence. The various end-user involved are hospitals, clinics, ambulatory surgical centres, and home use. The urinary incontinence and pelvic organ prolapse devices and equipment market research report is one of a series of new reports from The Business Research Company that provides urinary incontinence and pelvic organ prolapse devices and equipment market statistics, including urinary incontinence and pelvic organ prolapse devices and equipment industry global market size, regional shares, competitors with urinary incontinence and pelvic organ prolapse devices and equipment market share, detailed urinary incontinence and pelvic organ prolapse devices and equipment market segments, market trends and opportunities, and any further data you may need to thrive in the urinary incontinence and pelvic organ prolapse devices and equipment industry. This urinary incontinence and pelvic organ prolapse devices and equipment market research report delivers a complete perspective of everything you need, with an in-depth analysis of the current and future scenario of the industry. The global urinary incontinence and pelvic organ prolapse devices and equipment market size will grow from $0.43 billion in 2022 to $0.46 billion in 2023 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 8.1%. The Russia-Ukraine war disrupted the chances of global economic recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic, at least in the short term. The war between these two countries has led to economic sanctions on multiple countries, a surge in commodity prices, and supply chain disruptions, causing inflation across goods and services and affecting many markets across the globe. The global urinary incontinence and pelvic organ prolapse devices and equipment market size is expected to grow to $0.59 billion in 2027 at a CAGR of 6.3%. The increased prevalence rate for Pelvic organ prolapse (POP) as well as for urinary incontinence (UI) disorders has been driving the growth of urinary incontinence and pelvic organ prolapse (POP) devices and equipment market. The increasing prevalence rate has led manufacturers towards developing more accurate and efficient devices for the treatment of these disorders. The POP affects women of all ages, however, old age women are more prone to POP disorders. According to US FDA reports, the number of women who have POP is expected to increase by 46%, to 4.9 million, by 2050. According to a report published by the American Urological Association (AUA/SUFU), the prevalence of stress urinary incontinence (SUI) in women was reported to be as high as 49%. The prevalence rate of stress urinary incontinence is high in the poor nutritional status group, as it results in weakness of pelvic supports. This high prevalence rate is driving the demand for medical equipment for urinary incontinence and pelvic organ prolapse. The urinary incontinence and pelvic organ prolapse devices and equipment market are being restrained by rising health issues due to the use of vaginal mesh for the treatment of UI and POP. Regulatory agencies such as FDA and NICE have devised new guidelines for the manufacturers to address these concerns. The vaginal mesh implants generally use a Polypropylene layer over the implants. Such vaginal mesh implants containing Polypropylene have caused severe medical complications in millions of women across the world. Therefore, manufacturers are now forced to develop an alternative material, such as polyurethane, which is better suited to be used by women without any health complications for treatment of pelvic organ prolapse and urine incontinence. For instance, on October 2022, after a 36 month study on transvaginal mesh for pelvic organ prolapsed, the food and drug administration, a US-based regulator of drugs and medical devices, decided to continue its ban on transvaginal mesh due to its low risk to benefit ratio. These concerns about the safety of vaginal mesh are resulting in stringent manufacturing regulations and affecting sales, thus restraining the UI and POP devices and equipment market. The urinary incontinence and pelvic organ prolapse devices and equipment industry is characterized by the increased use of several new technologies in recent years. There is a wide range of devices being developed to treat both POP and urinary incontinence. For instance, The Lyrette transurethral SUI system led by Verathon Medical UK Ltd is the only FDA-approved treatment used for the treatment of stress urinary incontinence (SUI) among women. Devices such as Lyrette transurethral SUI system are used for procedures for incontinence. The treatment through Lyretter does not require the use of anesthesia or surgery instead, it uses radiofrequency energy to tighten the tissue of the bladder. For the treatment of POP, companies are now focusing on using native tissue prolapse repair procedures instead of vaginal mesh after the adverse health issues from the usage of vaginal mesh were highlighted. Regulatory bodies, such as the FDA in the US, regulate the manufacturing and safety guidelines for devices and equipment related to urinary incontinence and pelvic organ prolapse disorders. For instance, manufacturers are required to obtain pre-market clearance (510(k)) of the tools specifically for implanting surgical mesh. FDA requires the manufacturers in urinary incontinence and pelvic organ prolapse devices and the equipment industry to conduct post-market studies to check the specific safety and effectiveness concerns related to surgical mesh used for the repair of POP. For example, FDA regulations resulted in many companies taking down their product completely from the market and made companies like Coloplast and Acell discontinue marketing of their products- Coloplast's Restorelle DirectFix Posterior and Acell Matristem's Pelvic Floor Repair Matrix, respectively. Major players in the urinary incontinence and pelvic organ prolapse devices and equipment market are Boston Scientific Corporation, Coloplast Group, Ethicon US, C. R. Bard Inc., Johnson & Johnson, Teleflex Incorporated, Medtronic PLC., COVIDien, Cook Medical, and Neomedic.

This urinary stone treatment devices (or) equipment market research report delivers a complete perspective of everything you need, with an in-depth analysis of the current and future scenario of the industry. The global urinary stone treatment devices and equipment market size will grow from $2.84 billion in 2022 to $3.05 billion in 2023 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.4%. The Russia-Ukraine war disrupted the chances of global economic recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic, at least in the short term. The war between these two countries has led to economic sanctions on multiple countries, a surge in commodity prices, and supply chain disruptions, causing inflation across goods and services and affecting many markets across the globe. The global urinary stone treatment devices and equipment market size is expected to grow to $3.79 billion in 2027 at a CAGR of 5.6%. The increasing prevalence of Kidney Stones, especially in the geriatric population is driving the urinary stone treatment devices and equipment market growth. The incidence of urolithiasis is reported to be increasing across the globe. According to a study, about 30% of people around the world are obese and nearly 900 million people are geriatrics which is expected to increase to 1.4 billion by 2030. The incidence of kidney stones is globally increasing with an estimated prevalence ranging up to 15%. According to a Robotic Stone survey, the probability of stone formation in Saudi Arabia is 20.1% and 13% in the USA. Stone diseases or urolithiasis are frequent in the ageing population. The Asia-Pacific is presently home to more than half of the world’s ageing population above 60 years and the number is expected to rise to 2.45 billion by 2050. Lack of public awareness and proper knowledge about the problems associated with urinary stone diseases, particularly in under-developed countries acts as a major factor hindering the market growth. This lack of proper knowledge becomes a roadblock for the Urinary stone treatment device manufacturers because of many cases are unnoticed/unaddressed which amounts to a decrease in demand for these devices. For instance, according to a study conducted in Saudi Arabia, 44% of the participants had a family member suffering from urinary stone disease and 9.6% had urinary stones themselves, which suggests a high prevalence of the ailment in the country. But there was an incidence of lack of awareness and misconceptions among the people in most parts of that region. Companies in the industry are investing in advanced laser technology and robot-assisted surgeries to treat urolithiasis. Urolithiasis is a disease condition where calculi or stones are formed in the kidney, bladder, and urinary tract of the human body. Urolithiasis open surgeries are increasingly conducted with the help of minimally invasive procedures, advanced lasers, enhanced surgical tools, and robot-assisted devices to reduce hospitalization time, be less invasive and enable a shorter bladder catheterization time. For instance, Boston Scientific Co. is investing by way of an agreement with Lumenis, a company offering minimally-invasive clinical solutions, and holmium laser technology, to use and leverage the benefits of advanced laser technology. In May 2021, based on the guideline provided by the Food and Drug administration, a US-based regulator of medical devices and healthcare technology, Imperative Care Inc recalled Zoom 71 reperfusion Catheter due to the risk of breaking during use. If the device broke during use, it could leave fractured pieces inside the patient’s body resulting in serious injuries.

This industry includes establishments that produce infertility drugs, hormonal contraceptives, erectile dysfunction drugs and hormonal replacement drugs to treat infertility, infections and prevent pregnancy. It also consists of establishments which produce drugs for benign prostatic hypertrophy, drugs for urinary incontinence and overactive bladder, diuretics to treat urinary calculi, glomerular disorders and other urinary disorders. The main types of genito-urinary drugs are hormonal contraceptives, drugs for benign prostatic hypertrophy, drugs for infertility, drugs for erectile dysfunction, drugs for urinary incontinence and overactive bladder, drugs for infections and others, drugs for hormonal replacement therapy and diuretics. Hormonal contraceptives are medications or devices that reduce the likelihood of becoming pregnant. The drugs are administered through oral, parenteral, and others that are classified into branded and generic drugs. The various mode of purchase includes prescription-based drugs and over-the-counter drugs which are distributed by hospital pharmacies, retail pharmacies/ drug stores, and others. The global genito-urinary drugs market size is expected to grow from $40.40 billion in 2021 to $42.75 billion in 2022 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.8%. The growth in the market is mainly due to the companies rearranging their operations and recovering from the COVID-19 impact, which had earlier led to restrictive containment measures involving social distancing, remote working, and the closure of commercial activities that resulted in operational challenges. The genito-urinary drugs market is expected to reach $63.83 billion in 2026 at a CAGR of 10.5%. The aging population profile of most countries contributed to the growth of the gastrointestinal drugs market. The increase in patient pool due to rising geriatric population globally, contributed significantly to the growth of the market during the historic period. According to the WHO, by 2030, one in every six people on the planet will be 60 or older. The proportion of the population aged 60 and up will rise from 1 billion in 2020 to 2.2 billion by 2050. This rise in the geriatric population increased the demand for medical care and drove the healthcare expenditure. This has led to increased demand for pharmaceuticals products, significantly impacting market growth during this period. Regulatory agencies and federal governments adopted stringent regulations and took a tough stance on drug pricing by pharmaceutical companies during the historic period. Pharmaceutical companies faced criticism from politicians, patients and physicians over high pricing of some medicines and drugs. Moreover, companies had to sell drugs and medicines at subsidized rates to government hospitals, doctors and clinics, further effecting companies’ revenues. This led to drug manufacturing companies operating on a reduced profit margin, which negatively impacted the attractiveness of the genito-urinary drugs industry in the historic period. Pharmaceutical companies are investing in development of new class drugs for treating overactive bladders (OAB). Earlier anti-muscarinic agents have been used for the treatment of OAB. Going forward, the market is expected to be driven by a new class of drug known as beta-3 adrenergic agonists that has been increasingly used to treat OAB. Beta-3 adrenergic agonists are drugs which cause the bladder muscles to relax without causing side effects such as dry mouth.
