Incident and Prevalent Cases of Breast Cancer Continue to Grow as Effective Screening Boosts Survival Rates

EpiCast Report: Breast Cancer - Epidemiology Forecast to 2022

The total number of breast cancer incident cases in the nine major markets (9MM) — the US, France, Germany, Italy, Spain, UK, Japan, urban China and Brazil — is expected to increase by 44% over the next decade, from 0.90 million in 2012 to 1.29 million by 2022.

The latest report states that the number of five-year prevalent cases will also grow by 44%, climbing from 3.7 million in 2012 to 5.39 million by 2022. Out of the 9MM, the US and urban China had the highest number of five-year prevalent cases in 2012, with 1.15 million and 898,406 cases, respectively.

Samantha Lee, Epidemiologist, says: “The forecast growth in breast cancer incidence is partly due to rising cases of obesity, growing detection through screening programs, and changes in reproductive patterns and the use of postmenopausal hormone replacement therapy.”

According to the World Health Organization, increased breast cancer survival has contributed greatly to the prevalence of the disease, and there is a large amount of evidence showing that breast cancer mammographic screening is effective in reducing the disease mortality by at least 20% in women aged 50 years and older.

Lee says: “Prevention measures taken to improve breast cancer survival in parts of the world where organized nationwide mammography screening has only been made available in recent years, such as Brazil and China, will boost survival rates and impact the disease incidence and prevalence in those countries.”

Nonetheless, epidemiologists expect the impact of screening in these markets to be limited in the short term. This is due to the lack of sufficient resources and infrastructure needed to support the downstream healthcare needs associated with screening, such as additional diagnostic tests and treatment.

The global knee replacement market to reach $7,459 million in 2019, finds new report


MediPoint: Knee Replacement - Global Analysis and Market Forecasts

The knee replacement market value across 10 major countries will undergo a slight increase over the next few years, from $6,544m in 2012 to $7,459m in 2019, at a Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of 1.9%.

The latest report states that out of the 10 major markets (10MM) – the US, France, Germany, Italy, Spain, the UK, Japan, Brazil, China and India – the US possessed the largest market share of 63% in 2012. This is expected to drop slightly to just below 61% in 2019.

According to analyst of this report “The knee replacement market represents the largest joint reconstruction market in the world. Although it has continued to grow at a steady rate in procedure volume, profit margins have been negatively affected by health executives scrutinizing purchases and using multiple channels to procure orthopedic devices at highly competitive prices.”

Nevertheless, the rising prevalence of symptomatic arthritis will drive the expected growth over the forecast period. Emerging markets, such as India and China, will see a higher growth level in knee replacement and will provide the key for players to gain additional market share.
Furthermore, technological advancements in joint reconstruction surgeries, such as computer-assisted systems, will also provide a boost to the market.

Analyst added: “As the knee replacement procedure volume rises over the next decade, it will become increasingly important to improve surgical accuracy and reduce revision rates to a specific level. Future competition among vendors will thus be more likely to center on the instrumentation and ancillary equipment, such as patient-specific instruments (PSIs), navigation systems, and robotic systems.”
However, a number of significant barriers will prevent a more impressive level of growth in the knee replacement market, including the deferral of procedures.

The analyst continues: “Current economic conditions are forcing patients to reconsider hip and knee replacements due to the costs involved and potential missed work days. Knee replacement is more likely to be deferred by patients in comparison with hip replacement, because medical treatments such as viscosupplementation can ease the pain.

“Additionally, cost-containment pressures are persisting in the US and EU healthcare systems, with a particular focus on limiting the spending on high-volume surgeries, such as knee replacement.”

The global cardiac rhythm management (CRM) market to cross $15.7 billion by 2020, finds new report

MediPoint: Cardiac Rhythm Management - Global Analysis and Market Forecasts


The global cardiac rhythm management (CRM) market is set to experience significant expansion and emerging market adoption, with revenues climbing from $10.9 billion in 2012 to more than $15.7 billion by 2020, at a Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of 4.6%.

The latest report states that the US held the largest CRM market share in 2012, with 55%, and will continue to do so in 2020 – despite the potential slowing effect of Obamacare on revenue growth – with 45%. The 5EU countries – France, Germany, Italy, Spain and the UK – followed in 2012, with a share of 29%, which is due to rise to 32% by the end of the forecast period.

The anticipated expansion of the global CRM market will result from increasing incidences of arrhythmia and heart failure in the global population, combined with the growing market penetration of pacing and pulse generator technology in the Asia-Pacific and South American regions.

The lead analyst of this report says: “The extremely competitive CRM market is dominated by several key players, who must continue to innovate in the face of mounting pricing pressures and strict regulation as they battle to gain market share.

“New technologies currently under development, such as leadless pacemakers and energy harvesting generators, promise to heighten product sales and boost new account openings, while industry standards continue to develop in regards to remote home monitoring and rate-adaptive therapy.”

However, the CRM market will experience some barriers to further revenue growth during the forecast period. These include the high costs surrounding new CRM devices, along with a subsequent lack of reimbursement, which is also expected to limit hospital product offerings.

“Additionally, healthcare reforms introduced by the US government in 2010, namely the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act and the Health Care and Education Affordability Reconciliation Act, may adversely affect the US medical devices market by increasing pressure on device manufacturers. This could therefore slow CRM growth in what continues to be the world’s largest market shareholder,” Littlefield concludes.

This report provides analysis on the cardiac rhythm management market in 10 major countries (10MM) – the US, France, Germany, Italy, Spain, the UK, Japan, China, India and Brazil.

By 2020, the U.S. market for peripheral vascular devices will be worth over $6 billion

By 2020, the U.S. market for peripheral vascular devices will be worth over $6 billion

The peripheral vascular device market includes stents, percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTA) balloon catheters, atherectomy devices, chronic total occlusion devices, stent grafts, surgical grafts, arteriovenous (AV) access thrombectomy devices, inferior vena cava filters, catheters, guidewires, introducer sheaths, vascular closure devices and transcatheter embolization devices. These devices can be used for treating either coronary arterial or peripheral arterial disease (PAD), but only those devices used for peripheral procedures are included in this report. Older individuals and those who are obese have a higher risk of developing PAD. As result of a general increase in peripheral procedures and the development of new lower-limb treatments, the market for products such as stents and stent grafts will grow rapidly in the U.S. over the forecast period.

Peripheral artery disease (PAD) remains a significantly under treated condition in the U.S and PAD is the leading cause of leg amputation. These factors will continue to drive growth in the peripheral vascular device market. In particular, the peripheral stent market is projected to grow over the forecast period. However, intense competition has led to price erosion and market penetration has moderated this once high growth segment. The launch of new technologies, including drug-eluting stents, will generate marginal revenues and only one company has sought FDA approval. In contrast, significant investments and acquisitions have taken place in the efforts of bringing the first drug-eluting balloon to the market, with Medtronic and C. R. Bard in a tight race to gain approval.
