50mg/Vial Segment to Lead Epirubicin Market During 2022–2028

NEW YORK, UNITED STATES, January 19, 2023 /EINPresswire.com/ -- The epirubicin market is projected to reach US$ 243.99 million by 2028 from US$ 191.66 million in 2021; it is expected to register a CAGR of 3.60% from 2022 to 2028.

Epirubicin is an anthracycline medicine with the first clinical trial published in 1980. The drug was designed to be favored over doxorubicin because of better efficacity and quality. It is used for chemotherapy purposes for the treatment of various cancers. The drug is prescribed alone or in combination for the primary use against breast cancer, ovarian cancer, liver cancer, bladder cancer, and others. The product works by slowing or stopping the growth of cancer cells in the body. Combination therapies include fluorouracil, epirubicin hydrochloride, and cyclophosphamide (FEC), in which the product is given along with fluorouracil and cyclophosphamide. Adjuvant therapy of epirubicin seems to be less toxic compared to monotherapy. It is marketed by Pfizer under the trade name Ellence in the US and Pharmorubicin or Epirubicin Ebewe elsewhere. In August 2007, the product lost its patent and became generic. The product shows the limited scope in cancer treatment due to its side effects. The common side effect was the heart, bone marrow, and blood.

According to the European Journal of Oncology Pharmacy, 29% of hospital pharmacists reported shortages of drugs necessary for treating COVID-19 patients, and almost 50% also faced shortages of drugs necessary for treating cancer patients. In addition, most hospital pharmacists reported a decrease in planned surgery for oncology patients and a decrease in the number of chemotherapy preparations.

Based on dosage, the epirubicin market is segmented into 10mg/vial, 50mg/vial, 100mg/vial, and 200mg/vial. In 2021, the 50mg/vial segment held the largest market share; however, the 100mg/Vial segment is estimated to grow at the fastest CAGR of 4.1% during the forecast period. The largest share of the 50mg/vial segment can be attributed to the rise in cancer cases globally. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), in 2020, 2.3 million women were diagnosed with breast cancer and 685,000 total deaths globally. As of the end of 2020, there were 7.8 million women alive diagnosed with breast cancer in the past 5 years, making it the world's most prevalent cancer. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), every year in the US, ~2,64,000 breast cancer cases are diagnosed in women and ~2,400 in men. It is also estimated that ~42,000 women and ~500 men in the US die each year from breast cancer. The Canadian cancer society estimated that in 2022, ~28,600 Canadian women would be diagnosed with breast cancer, and ~5,500 Canadian women would die from breast cancer. Further, it is estimated that in 2022, ~270 Canadian men would be diagnosed with breast cancer, of which 55 men would die due to breast cancer. Further, as per BLADDER CANCER CANADA, in Canada, bladder cancer is the fifth most common cancer, fourth most common in men, and eighth most common in women. It has been estimated that every year ~12,500 Canadians are diagnosed with bladder cancer.
