Cancer is one of the leading causes of death around the world. The global prevalence of cancer is continuously increasing, increasing the demand for radiotherapy as a therapeutic option. Being exposed to radiation during radiotherapy causes radiation toxicity.

As per the previous decade's trend, around 50% of patients with liver cancer, colon cancer, pancreatic cancer, and prostate cancer were treated with radiotherapy. Radiotherapy not only destroys tumor cells, but it also destroys normal and healthy cells in the proximity of the tumor. This is the primary cause of radiation toxicity in 60% of individuals who receive radiotherapy. As a result, with the rising prevalence of cancer, the number of cases of radiation toxicity is also increasing around the world.

Significant investments in nuclear energy in some countries have been increased in recent years, resulting in more nuclear facilities, which has raised the risk of individuals being exposed to radiation. The radiotherapy coverage policies and reimbursements provide easy access to radiotherapy treatments.

Increased usage of positron emission tomography (PET) and single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) scanners in hospitals and diagnostic centers increases radiation toxicity due to gamma radiation emission, which provides a potential growth opportunity for the radiation toxicity market.

Sales of the radiation toxicity treatment market grew at a CAGR of 4.9% between 2014 and 2021. In 2021, the global market of radiation toxicity treatment accounts for approx. 38% of the overall toxicology drug screening market which accounts for around USD 9.4 Billion.

Radiation used in the treatment also damages the healthy cells present around cancer tumors in the human body, resulting in side effects such as dry mouth, mouth and gum sores, difficulty in swallowing, stiffness in the jaw, nausea, and others, after a duration ranging from days, months, to years.

For the prevention of damage to healthy cells, radiologists and dosimetrists are focusing on using software such as treatment planning software, radiation dose management, and others for providing the right amount of radiation doses to the patients at targeted locations, without harming the healthy cells around the tumor.

With technological evolution in the field of radiation, automation is successfully implemented in radiotherapy. Radiation therapy centers are increasingly using advanced software, such as treatment planning software, for developing a treatment plan for each beamline route for estimating the direction in which the therapy system will deliver radiotherapy to a patient hence, the demand for radiation toxicity treatment will increase and will drive the market.

The radiation toxicity treatment market is expected to grow in the future, as the healthcare profession continues to evolve as a result of the need to discover newer technologies to effectively diagnose any issue.

In addition, the market's growth is expected to be boosted by rising acceptance and quick expansion of new technologies in emerging economies throughout the forecast period. Leading companies are concentrating their efforts on the launch of new products as well as research and development.

Which Factors Are Restraining the Demand for radiation toxicity treatment?

Lack of guidance regarding rare diseases such as acute radiation syndrome-specific research methodologies and identifying patients for a study, especially including very impaired or minimally impaired patients in research remains a challenge.

There also exist various legal and ethical issues to finding an adequate sample size for clinical research. Selecting appropriate outcomes and their measurement is difficult due to heterogeneity in treatment and the effect of various diseases in patients due to the absence of validated outcomes. Also, a lack of disease knowledge and diversity in terms of epidemiology, diagnosis, prognosis, and treatment affects the clinical trial design and planning.

In cases of rare diseases such as acute radiation syndrome, the patient–physician relationship may not fit with the traditional assumptions of medical care. The lack of disease-related expertise among healthcare professionals and psychological challenges associated with the diagnosis of an incurable disease may lead to improper treatment. Due to poor knowledge of rare diseases and limited therapeutic options of treatments, physicians may not act as competent technical experts who provide relevant information to patients.

To avoid this, disease specialists should be trained to deal with patients with rare diseases and they must learn to cope with assertive and well-informed expert patients. Educational associations and institutions in healthcare should encourage physicians to practice and improve their skills in this area.

This can prove to be a major restraining factor for the product segment of the radiation toxicity treatment market.
