Therapeutic Nuclear Medicines Market 2018-2028 Market Report - Recent Trends and Growth Opportunities

Tier 1 players contribute to more than 80% revenue share
The therapeutic nuclear medicines market is a highly consolidated market with top three leading players contributing 87.4% of the market share. The tier 1 players of the global therapeutic nuclear medicines market are Novartis AG, Bayer AG and GE Healthcare. Bayer AG alone accounts for a 78.9% market share of the therapeutic nuclear medicines market due to the high penetration of its brand Xofigo for the treatment of prostate cancer in the U.S. and Europe. Novartis AG accounts for the second largest share of the global market owing to its acquisition of Advanced Accelerator Applications in 2017. Tier 2 players, such as Curium Pharmaceuticals, Jubilant DraxImage, Spectrum Pharmaceuticals and Progenics Pharmaceuticals, Inc., collectively accounted for 9% of the global therapeutic nuclear medicines market in 2017.

Growing acceptance of radiopharmaceuticals for therapeutic purposes
Radiopharmaceuticals are being used for diagnosis as well as therapeutic purposes. However, radiopharmaceuticals are currently used for diagnostic purpose rather than therapeutic purposes. Currently, only 12-13% revenue of the global radiopharmaceutical market comes from therapeutic nuclear medicines, however, by 2030, therapeutic nuclear medicines are expected to gain around 60-65% revenue of the global radiopharmaceutical market due to the positive results of Xofigo for the treatment of prostate cancer and the launch of Iodine-131 for the treatment of hypothyroidism and thyroid cancer in developed countries. Moreover, the leading radiopharmaceutical manufacturers are collaborating with hospitals and cancer research institutes for the sale of their products, which has increased the acceptance of therapeutic nuclear medicines.

Launch of more efficient therapeutic nuclear medicines for prostate cancer treatment
In the past few years, more efficient therapeutic nuclear medicines have been launched, which have shown positive results for the treatment of various types of cancer. For instance, the launch of Xofigo (Radium-223) by Bayer for the treatment of prostate cancer and the launch of Lutathera (Lutetium-177) for the treatment of neuroblastoma and synovitis has created growth opportunities for the therapeutic nuclear medicines market over the forecast period. In addition, the launch of these products has boosted the demand for therapeutic nuclear medicines among patients and physicians as well as opened the door for the other pharmaceutical manufacturers to launch more efficient therapeutic nuclear medicines.


Growing prevalence of prostate cancer
The prevalence of prostate cancer is rising throughout the globe, especially in developed countries such as the U.S. and UK, which is fuelling the growth of the therapeutic nuclear medicines market. According to the U.K. cancer research organization, prostate cancer is the most common type of cancer in the U.K. Around 47,151 men were diagnosed with the prostate cancer in 2015. Similarly, according to American Cancer Society, prostate cancer is the most common cause of death in the U.S. Around 1 in 9 men are expected to be diagnosed with prostate cancer during their lifetime. Therefore, increase in the incidence of prostate cancer is expected to drive the therapeutic nuclear medicines market over the forecast period

Stringent regulatory guidelines by FDA
The production, storage and usage of radioisotopes requires proper precautions because radioisotopes generate radiation that can affect the mass population as well as the environment. Approvals from the Food and Drug Administration and Medicines and Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency is mandatory for any usage, storage, or production of radioisotopes. According to the Nuclear Regulatory Commission, approximately 6,000 licenses are maintained for the usage of radioactive materials, the violation of which leads to enforcement actions that include loss of license. This stringent regulatory guideline by FDA for the approval and production of radiopharmaceuticals is likely to hamper the revenue growth of the therapeutic nuclear medicines market.
