The global cancer pain market accounted for a market size of USD 6,716.2 Million in 2021 and is projected to reach USD 9,951.2 Million by 2030, at a growth rate of 4.6% during the forecast period.



The global cancer pain market is expected to grow owing to various factors such as the niche penetration of healthcare facilities for cancer diagnostics coupled with the rising healthcare expenditure & government support worldwide. Furthermore, growing prevalence of cancer pain is also estimated to boost the market growth. According to the National Cancer Institute, as of December 2021, around 20-50% cancer patients suffer from pain. Also, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), roughly 15.5 million cancer survivors (those who have had a cancer diagnosis) were alive in the United States in 2016, with that figure predicted to rise to over 20 million by 2026. Despite the driving factors, accessibility to facilities and high cost of treatment are expected to hinder the market growth during the forecast period.

Growth Influencers:


Rising healthcare expenditure and government support worldwide

With the growing prevalence of cancer, the awareness for the disease as well as the associated pain is also increasing. This is also leading to the rising healthcare expenditure for diagnosis and treatment of the cancer associated pain. According to the OECD, the preliminary estimates of healthcare spending for a group of 16 OECD countries jumped to about 9.9% of GDP in 2020. Therefore, the rising healthcare expenditure and government support worldwide is anticipated to fuel the market growth.

Segments Overview:


The global cancer pain market is segmented the drug type and disease indication.

By Drug Type,

  • Opioids/ Narcotics
  • Hydromorphone (Dilaudid)
  • Morphine (Kadian, M-Eslon Others)
  • Codeine
  • Oxycodone
  • Tramadol
  • Fentanyl
  • Others
  • Non-Opioids
  • Acetaminophen
  • Non-Steroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drugs (NSAIDs)
  • Nerve Blocks

The opioids/narcotics segment is estimated to account for the largest market share of approximately 75% owing to the growing prevalence of cancer pain and the growing product pipeline. Within this segment, the codeine sub-segment is expected to witness the highest CAGR of 5.5%. This is because codeine is required in less amount as compared to the other opioids. In addition, the non-opioids segment is estimated to account for a market opportunity of around USD 482.7 million during 2022 to 2030. Within this segment, the non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDS) segment is estimated to surpass a market size of USD 1,000 million by 2022. This is because of the low cost as well as easy availability of these drugs.

By Disease Indication,

  • Lung Cancer
  • Colorectal Cancer
  • Breast Cancer
  • Prostate Cancer
  • Blood Cancer
  • Others

The breast cancer segment is expected to witness the fastest growth rate of 5.5% during the forecast period and is also estimated to account for the largest market share of around 16% in 2021, owing to the increasing prevalence of breast cancer. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), there were around 2.3 million women diagnosed with breast cancer in 2020. As per the same source, about 685,000 deaths occurred globally in 2020, due to breast cancer. On the other hand, the colorectal cancer segment accounted for the lowest revenue of USD 549.5 million by 2030.

Regional Overview


Based on region, the global Cancer pain market is divided into Europe, North America, Asia Pacific, South America, and the Middle East & Africa.

The North America region is expected to hold the largest market share of around 42% in 2021. This amounted to a market size of USD 2,834.8 million. This is owing to the growing incidence rate of cancer and presence of various market players in the region. In the U.S. around 1,194 people below the age of 20 years were suffering from cancer pain in 2021. Total number of people suffering from cancer pain in 2021 in the country was 1,16,182. Also, this number was expected to reach 1,743 people below the age of 20 and 1,59,889 total population suffering from cancer pain by 2030.

Asia Pacific region witnessed the fastest growth rate of 5.7% during the forecast period owing to the easy availability of pain therapeutics, growing geriatric population, and rising awareness of cancer.
