In 2022, the highest cancer rate for men and women among European countries was in Denmark with 728.5 cancer cases per 100,000 population. Ireland and the Netherlands followed, with 641.6 and 641.4 people diagnosed with cancer per 100,000 population, respectively.
Lung cancer Lung cancer is the deadliest type of cancer worldwide, and in Europe, Germany was the country with the highest number of lung cancer deaths in 2022, with 47.7 thousand deaths. However, when looking at the incidence rate of lung cancer, Hungary had the highest for both males and females, with 138.4 and 72.3 cases per 100,000 population, respectively.
Breast cancer Breast cancer is the most common type of cancer among women with an incidence rate of 83.3 cases per 100,000 population in Europe in 2022. Cyprus was the country with the highest incidence of breast cancer, followed by Belgium and France. The mortality rate due to breast cancer was 34.8 deaths per 100,000 population across Europe, and Cyprus was again the country with the highest figure.

In 2022, the incidence of lung cancer among men in Europe was highest in Hungary at 138.4 per 100,000, while Sweden had the lowest incidence. The incidence of lung cancer recorded among women in Denmark was over 79 per 100,000 population. Across the European Union overall, the rate of lung cancer diagnoses was 94.5 per 100,000 among men and 44.1 per 100,000 among women. Smoking and lung cancer risk The connection between smoking and the increased risk of health problems is well established. As of 2021, Hungary had one of the highest daily smoking rates in Europe, with over a quarter of adults smoking daily in the Central European country. The only other countries with a higher share of smoking adults were Bulgaria and Turkey. A positive development though, is the share of adults smoking every day has decreased in almost every European country since 2011. The rise of vaping Originally marketed as a device to help smokers quit, e-cigarettes or vapes have seen increased popularity among people who never smoked cigarettes, especially young people. The use of vapes among young people was reported to be highest in Estonia, Czechia, and Ireland. The dangers of vaping have not been examined over the long term. In the EU there have been attempts to make ‘vapes’ less accessible and appealing for young people, which would include such things as banning flavors and stopping the sale of disposable e-cigarettes.

In 2022, Australia had the fourth-highest total number of skin cancer cases worldwide and the highest age-standardized rate, with roughly 37 cases of skin cancer per 100,000 population.

This statistic depicts the mortality rate of breast cancer in Europe in 2022 in women population, by country.

ObjectiveWe investigated whether there are differences in cancer incidence by geographical area of origin in North-eastern Italy.MethodsWe selected all incident cases recorded in the Veneto Tumour Registry in the period 2015-2019. Subjects were classified, based on the country of birth, in six geographical areas of origin (Italy, Highly Developed Countries-HDC, Eastern Europe, Asia, Africa, South-central America). Age-standardized incidence rates and incidence rate ratio (IRR) were calculated, for all cancer sites and for colorectal, liver, breast and cervical cancer separately.ResultsWe recorded 159,486 all-site cancer cases; 5.2% cases occurred in subjects born outside Italy, the majority from High Migratory Pressure Countries (HMPC) (74.3%). Incidence rates were significantly lower in subjects born in HMPC in both sexes. Immigrants, in particular born in Asia and Africa, showed lower rates of all site cancer incidence. The lowest IRR for colorectal cancer was observed in males from South-Central America (IRR 0.19, 95%CI 0.09-0.44) and in females from Asia (IRR 0.32, 95%CI 0.18-0.70). The IRR of breast cancer appeared significantly lower than Italian natives in all female populations, except for those coming from HDC. Females from Eastern Europe showed a higher IRR for cervical cancer (IRR 2.02, 95%CI 1.57-2.61).ConclusionCancer incidence was found lower in subjects born outside Italy, with differences in incidence patterns depending on geographical area of origin and the cancer type in question. Further studies, focused on the country of birth of the immigrant population, would help to identify specific risk factors influencing cancer incidence.

BackgroundThe nationwide HUN-CANCER EPI study examined cancer incidence and mortality rates in Hungary from 2011 to 2019.MethodsUsing data from the National Health Insurance Fund (NHIF) and Hungarian Central Statistical Office (HCSO), our retrospective study analyzed newly diagnosed malignancies between Jan 1, 2011, and Dec 31, 2019. Age-standardized incidence and mortality rates were calculated for all and for different tumor types using both the 1976 and 2013 European Standard Populations (ESP).FindingsThe number of newly diagnosed cancer cases decreased from 60,554 to 56,675 between 2011–2019. Age-standardized incidence rates were much lower in 2018, than previously estimated (475.5 vs. 580.5/100,000 person-years [PYs] in males and 383.6 vs. 438.5/100,000 PYs in females; ESP 1976). All-site cancer incidence showed a mean annual decrease of 1.9% (95% CI: 2.4%-1.4%) in men and 1.0% (95% CI:1.42%-0.66%) in women, parallel to mortality trends (-1.6% in males and -0.6% in females; ESP 2013). In 2018, the highest age-standardized incidence rates were found for lung (88.3), colorectal (82.2), and prostate cancer (62.3) in men, and breast (104.6), lung (47.7), and colorectal cancer (45.8) in women. The most significant decreases in incidence rates were observed for stomach (4.7%), laryngeal (4.4%), and gallbladder cancers (3.5%), with parallel decreases in mortality rates (3.9%, 2.7% and 3.2%, respectively).InterpretationWe found a lower incidence of newly diagnosed cancer cases for Hungary compared to previous estimates, and decreasing trends in cancer incidence and mortality, in line with global findings and the declining prevalence of smoking.

In 2022, Turkey reported a rate of 48 cancer incidents per 100,000 persons per year in the Middle East and North Africa.

BackgroundThe exponential growth of the cancer burden attributable to metabolic factors deserves global attention. We investigated the trends of cancer mortality attributable to metabolic factors in 204 countries and regions between 1990 and 2019.MethodsWe extracted data from the Global Burden of Disease Study (GBD) 2019 and assessed the mortality, age-standardized death rate (ASDR), and population attributable fractions (PAFs) of cancers attributable to metabolic factors. Average annual percentage changes (AAPCs) were calculated to assess the changes in the ASDR. The cancer mortality burden was evaluated according to geographic location, SDI quintiles, age, sex, and changes over time.ResultsCancer attributable to metabolic factors contributed 865,440 (95% UI, 447,970-140,590) deaths in 2019, a 167.45% increase over 1990. In the past 30 years, the increase in the number of deaths and ASDR in lower SDI regions have been significantly higher than in higher SDI regions (from high to low SDIs: the changes in death numbers were 108.72%, 135.7%, 288.26%, 375.34%, and 288.26%, and the AAPCs were 0.42%, 0.58%, 1.51%, 2.36%, and 1.96%). Equatorial Guinea (AAPC= 5.71%), Cabo Verde (AAPC=4.54%), and Lesotho (AAPC=4.42%) had the largest increase in ASDR. Large differences were observed in the ASDRs by sex across different SDIs, and the male-to-female ratios of ASDR were 1.42, 1.50, 1.32, 0.93, and 0.86 in 2019. The core population of death in higher SDI regions is the age group of 70 years and above, and the lower SDI regions are concentrated in the age group of 50-69 years. The proportion of premature deaths in lower SDI regions is significantly higher than that in higher SDI regions (from high to low SDIs: 2%, 4%, 7%, 7%, and 9%). Gastrointestinal cancers were the core burden, accounting for 50.11% of cancer deaths attributable to metabolic factors, among which the top three cancers were tracheal, bronchus, and lung cancer, followed by colon and rectum cancer and breast cancer.ConclusionsThe cancer mortality burden attributable to metabolic factors is shifting from higher SDI regions to lower SDI regions. Sex differences show regional heterogeneity, with men having a significantly higher burden than women in higher SDI regions but the opposite is observed in lower SDI regions. Lower SDI regions have a heavier premature death burden. Gastrointestinal cancers are the core of the burden of cancer attributable to metabolic factors.

In 2022, the incidence rate of colorectal cancer in the EU was, among men, 92.7 per 100,000, while among women it stood at 58.2 per 100,000. For men, Hungary had the highest incidence rate at 138.3 per 100,000, while Austria had the lowest at 62.5 per 100,000. For women, Denmark had the highest incidence rate at 95.7 per 100,000, while Austria had the lowest at 37.6 per 100,000. This statistic depicts the incidence rate of colorectal cancer in the EU in 2022, by country and gender (per 100,000 population).

Background: Data on burden and changing trends of breast cancer are of value for policymaking. We aimed to determine the pattern of breast cancer incidence, mortality, and disability-adjusted life-years (DALYs), as well as temporal trends, from 1990 to 2017.Methods: We collected detailed information on breast cancer between 1990 and 2017 using the results of the Global Burden of Disease study. The number of incident cases, deaths, and DALYs attributable to breast cancer are reported as well as age-standardized rates. Estimated annual percentage changes (EAPCs) in age-standardized rates were calculated to quantify the temporal trends. Moreover, the attributable burden to breast cancer risk factors was also estimated.Results: There were 1,960,682 incident cases and 611,625 deaths of breast cancer globally in 2017, contributing to 17,708,600 DALYs. The age-standardized incidence rates (ASIRs) increased between 1990 and 2017, while the age-standardized mortality rates and DALY rates decreased. The corresponding EAPCs were 0.41, −0.62, and −0.56, respectively. These trends were heterogeneous across regions and countries. The increase in the ASIRs was more prominent in countries with a low sociodemographic index. The percentages of breast cancer deaths due to alcohol use and tobacco were decreasing, while deaths due to high body mass index and high fasting plasma glucose were increasing.Conclusion: Breast cancer remained a major public health concern globally. The trends of incidence, mortality, and DALYs were heterogeneous across regions and countries, suggesting that the allocation of appropriate health care resources for breast cancer should be considered at the national scale and even at the subnational scale.

The incidence of non-melanoma skin cancer is 17-fold lower in Singapore compared to the UK1, despite Singapore receiving 2-3 times more year-round ultraviolet radiation (UV)2,3. The ageing epidermis of the skin comprises competing somatic mutant clones4,5, from which such cancers develop. We question if differences in keratinocyte skin cancer incidence are reflected in the mutational landscape by comparing ageing facial epidermis from donors of Singapore and the UK. We find UK skin to be a highly competitive, densely mutated landscape with 4-fold greater mutation burden compared to Singaporean skin and differences in clonal selection by country. We disproportionately observe multiple features common to keratinocyte skin cancers6,7,8 in UK skin, such as UV mutagenesis, copy number aberration and hotspot mutations (in particular TP53 R248W). We conclude that keratinocyte skin cancer incidence is reflected in the somatic clones of non-cancerous epidermis. Finally, we re-analyse squamous cell carcinoma exomes from Korea9 to show, even in low incidence populations, carcinogenesis is driven by UV damage.

Market Dynamics of the Solid Tumor Therapeutics Market

Key Drivers of the Solid Tumor Therapeutics Market

The increasing prevalence of cancer is driving the global solid tumor therapeutics market growth.

The rising number of cases of various forms of metastatic cancer is expected to support market growth. Every day, the occurrence of many malignant illnesses rises. More tumor testing will be necessary for lung, colorectal, breast, and liver cancers, which will propel the market upward. Brain and neuroblastomas are the most prevalent forms of solid tumors; osteosarcoma and rhabdomyosarcoma are thought to be less common solid cancer types. The aging population and changing lifestyle habits, such as poor eating habits and inactivity, have contributed to a rise in the occurrence of cancer. • For instance, according to the European Breast Cancer Coalition 2022 report 1 in 11 women in the European Union develop breast cancer before the age of 74. (Source:https://www.europadonna.org/breast-cancer/ )

Rising government initiatives towards cancer cases significantly boost the market

The market for solid tumor cancer treatments is anticipated to expand between 2024 and 2031 as a result of growing government efforts, increased spending on research and development (R&D), advancements in sophisticated medical technology, and an increase in early cancer detection tests. Governments from many different nations have actively worked to raise knowledge about cancer treatment. Comprehensive cancer control programs are being implemented by several countries throughout the globe to lower cancer incidence and fatality rates. These initiatives frequently involve clinical trial assistance, medication development subsidies, and money for research and development. • For instance, the Indian government has started raising about treating cancer cases not only over offline media (boards, hoardings, in-store advertisements, in-mall activations) but also over online channels (social media channels, TV, radio, and others) (Source:https://assets.ey.com/content/dam/ey-sites/ey-com/en_in/topics/media-and-entertainment/2024/03/ey-in-india-s-media-entertainment-sector-is-innovating-for-the-future-03-2024-v2.pdf ) • For instance, in May 2022, the United States Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) awarded funding worth USD 5 million to community health centers to increase equitable access to life-saving cancer screenings.

Market Dynamics of the Targeted Cancer Drugs Market

Key Drivers of the Targeted Cancer Drugs Market

Rising incidence of cancer enhances the targeted cancer drugs market growth

Tobacco use, high body mass index, alcohol usage, low intake of fruits and vegetables, and lack of physical activity are responsible for about one-third of cancer-related risk. Furthermore, one significant risk factor for lung cancer is air pollution. About 30% of cancer cases in low- and lower-middle-income nations are caused by diseases that cause cancer, such as hepatitis and the human papillomavirus (HPV). How frequently a cancer arises (incidence) and how long people typically live after being diagnosed (survival) are the two factors that determine cancer prevalence. This indicates that the most prevalent malignancies with the longest survival have the highest prevalence counts. Compared to a less common cancer with a longer survival, a common cancer with a shorter survival may have a lower prevalence count. For instance, according to the American Cancer Society 2023, non-Hodgkin lymphoma, a less common cancer, has a higher prevalence rate than lung cancer, despite lung cancer being one of the most common malignancies in the US. There are more persons living after a diagnosis of non-Hodgkin lymphoma than after a diagnostic of lung cancer because those with non-Hodgkin lymphoma have a higher chance of surviving longer than those with lung cancer. There were 1,777,566 new cases of cancer reported in the US in 2021. An estimated 608,366 Americans lost their lives to cancer in 2022. https://www.cdc.gov/cancer/data/index.html In the twenty-first century, cancer is a significant social, public health, and economic issue, accounting for about one in six fatalities (16.8%) and one in four deaths (22.8%) from noncommunicable diseases (NCDs) globally. Three out of ten premature deaths worldwide are caused by NCDs (30.3% in people aged 30 to 69), and in 177 out of 183 nations, it ranks among the top three causes of death for this age group. Apart from being a significant hindrance to extending life expectancy, cancer is linked to significant societal and macroeconomic expenses, which differ in extent depending on the type of cancer, location, and gender. For instance, according to International Agency for Research on Cancer in 2022, there were about 20 million new cases of cancer, including nonmelanoma skin cancers (NMSCs), and 9.7 million cancer-related deaths. According to estimates, one in five men and women will get cancer at some point in their lives, while one in nine men and one in twelve women will pass away from the disease. With about 2.5 million new cases, or one in eight cancers worldwide (12.4% of all cancers), lung cancer was the most commonly diagnosed cancer in 2022. It was followed by stomach (4.9%), colorectum (9.6%), prostate (7.3%), and female breast (11.6%) cancers. With an anticipated 1.8 million deaths (18.7%), lung cancer was also the most common cause of cancer-related mortality. Colorectal (9.3%), liver (7.8%), female breast (6.9%), and stomach (6.8%) cancers were next in line. The two most common cancers in both men and women were lung and breast cancer. https://acsjournals.onlinelibrary.wile...

Cisplatin Chemotherapy Market Outlook

The global Cisplatin Chemotherapy market size is projected to reach $3.2 billion by 2032, up from $1.8 billion in 2023, at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.2%. This robust growth is driven by increasing cancer incidence rates worldwide, advancements in chemotherapy techniques, and a rising demand for effective cancer treatments. As a cornerstone in oncology, cisplatin's efficacy in treating various cancers makes it a vital component in chemotherapy regimens.

One key growth factor for the cisplatin chemotherapy market is the rising prevalence of cancer globally. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), cancer remains one of the leading causes of death worldwide, which has spurred extensive research and development activities focused on effective treatments. Cisplatin, a platinum-containing chemotherapy drug, is extensively used to treat various types of cancer, including lung, ovarian, testicular, and bladder cancers. Its proven efficacy in shrinking tumors and improving survival rates is a significant factor contributing to market growth.

Another critical driver is the continuous advancements in chemotherapy protocols and drug formulations. Innovations in drug delivery systems, such as liposomal formulations and nanoparticle-based delivery, have enhanced the therapeutic index of cisplatin while minimizing its side effects. These advancements have made cisplatin more tolerable for patients, thereby increasing its adoption. Furthermore, ongoing clinical trials aimed at exploring new indications and combination therapies are expected to provide fresh avenues for market expansion.

Additionally, the increasing investment in healthcare infrastructure globally, particularly in emerging economies, is facilitating greater access to cancer treatment. Governments and private sectors are channeling substantial funds into building state-of-the-art cancer treatment centers, which are equipped with the latest chemotherapy drugs, including cisplatin. Moreover, the growing awareness about early cancer detection and the availability of better diagnostic tools are leading to higher diagnosis rates, further driving the demand for effective chemotherapy treatments.

Oxaliplatin, another platinum-based chemotherapy drug, has been gaining attention for its role in treating colorectal cancer, among other types. Unlike cisplatin, oxaliplatin is often used in combination with other agents like 5-fluorouracil and leucovorin, forming regimens such as FOLFOX, which are standard in colorectal cancer treatment. Its unique mechanism of action and reduced nephrotoxicity compared to cisplatin make it a preferred choice in certain cancer protocols. The development of oxaliplatin has expanded the arsenal of platinum-based therapies, providing oncologists with more options to tailor treatments based on patient needs and cancer types.

On the regional front, North America and Europe currently dominate the cisplatin chemotherapy market due to their well-established healthcare systems, high healthcare expenditure, and strong presence of key market players. However, the Asia Pacific region is expected to witness the fastest growth during the forecast period. Increasing cancer prevalence, improving healthcare infrastructure, and rising government initiatives to enhance cancer care are significant factors contributing to the market's growth in this region.

Product Type Analysis

The Cisplatin Chemotherapy market is segmented into generic and branded products. Generic cisplatin holds a significant market share due to its cost-effectiveness and widespread availability. Generic drugs are bioequivalent to branded drugs but are sold at lower prices, making them accessible to a broader patient population, particularly in low and middle-income countries. The lower cost of generic cisplatin helps reduce the financial burden on patients and healthcare systems, promoting higher adoption rates.

Branded cisplatin products, while more expensive, offer certain advantages that contribute to their market demand. These branded formulations often come with innovative delivery mechanisms designed to enhance drug efficacy and reduce side effects. Pharmaceutical companies invest heavily in research and development to distinguish their branded products from generic counterparts. The resulting improvements in patient outcomes drive a steady demand for these premium options, particularly in developed regions wi
