DUBLIN, Jan. 14, 2019 /PRNewswire/ --
The "China Cancer Drugs Market, by Drugs, Cancer, Therapy, and Companies" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.
China Cancer Drugs Market is projected to reach US$ 30 Billion by the year 2024; owing to the increasing prevalence of various types of cancer, changing lifestyle & dietary habits, growing aging population, rising demand of targeted drug therapy and the patent expiration of key cancer drugs. Cancer is one of the leading causes of death worldwide and is a major public health burden in both developed and developing countries.
The rate of cancer incidences in China is exploding very rapidly; nearly 4 million people diagnosed and almost 3 million died from it. For instance; due to increasing air pollution over the last couple of years, lung cancer has increased 50% in Beijing only. Anticancer drugs act like an inhibitor that prevents cancer cells to grow.
In addition; factors like growing awareness regarding cancer diagnosis & treatment, advancement in cancer drugs and therapies, rise in cancer awareness programs like breast cancer screening, investment in healthcare infrastructure are expected to drive China anti-cancer drugs market positively over the forecast period. However, major side-effects of cancer drugs and its high cost are certainly restraining the China anti-cancer drugs market to reach its full potential.
