The radiopharmaceuticals market size has grown steadily in recent years. It will grow from $6.46 billion in 2023 to $6.77 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 4.7%. The expansion observed in the historical period can be linked to an increase in healthcare spending, government initiatives, the convenience of treatment, and shifts in lifestyle.
The radiopharmaceuticals market size is expected to see rapid growth in the next few years. It will grow to $10.59 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 11.8%. Anticipated growth in the forecast period is attributed to factors such as the increasing geriatric population, a rise in the prevalence of cancer and cardiovascular diseases, substantial capital investments, and the introduction of new products. Notable trends in this period include collaborative efforts with other companies to enhance revenues and product quality, investments in expanding plant capacity to meet growing demand, embracing new technologies to address emerging requirements, incorporating 3D printing technology in manufacturing for cost savings, investment in innovations such as theranostics, striving for category leadership, exploring in silico modeling for a more rational and scientific approach, leveraging AI to reduce research and development costs and expedite drug development, and investing in technologies focused on cardiology to boost revenues. Additionally, adopting disease-specific approaches for accurate and timely diagnosis of cancer is a noteworthy trend.
The escalating prevalence of cancer and cardiovascular diseases is expected to be a driving force for the radiopharmaceuticals market. Radiopharmaceuticals are increasingly recognized as a safe and effective therapeutic alternative to conventional medicines. They offer radiologists a distinct advantage in treating cancer and cardiovascular diseases, primarily due to their targeted therapy benefits. Cancer ranks as the second leading cause of death, with approximately 1 in 6 global deaths attributed to cancer. According to the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC), by 2040, the global burden is projected to reach 27.5 million active cancer incidents and 16.3 million cancer deaths, driven by population growth and aging. Notably, around 70% of cancer deaths occur in low- and middle-income countries. As a result, the increasing prevalence of cancer and cardiovascular diseases is expected to fuel the demand for radiopharmaceuticals in treating these conditions.
The radiopharmaceuticals market is anticipated to experience significant growth, driven by the increasing demand for personalized medicine. Personalized medicine, also known as precision medicine, is an innovative approach to medical care that tailors medical decisions, treatments, interventions, and drug therapies to the unique characteristics of each patient. Integrating personalized medicine into radiopharmaceuticals enhances the precision and accuracy of imaging and therapy, enabling healthcare providers to deliver more targeted and effective care. For example, in 2022, the Food and Drug Administration's Center for Drug Evaluation and Research (CDER) approved 37 new molecular entities (NMEs), with approximately 34%, or 12 of them, classified as personalized medicines by the Personalized Medicine Coalition (PMC). The increasing demand for personalized medicine is thus a driving force behind the growth of the radiopharmaceuticals market.
Several companies in the radiopharmaceuticals market are adopting strategic initiatives such as opening new manufacturing facilities and expanding plant capacity, gaining significant popularity. ITM Isotopen Technologien München AG (ITM), for instance, launched a new manufacturing facility in the Munich area to increase the production capacity of high-purity (n.c.a.) Lutetium-177 and no-carrier-added (n.c.a.) Lutetium-177-containing radiopharmaceuticals. This move aims to meet the high demand for quality medical isotopes for precision oncology worldwide.
Major players in the radiopharmaceuticals market are forming partnerships to enhance their market profitability. In June 2023, the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center partnered with PharmaLogic Holdings Corporation to produce new radiopharmaceuticals at a Pittsburgh facility. This collaboration enables patients and professionals in the UPMC vicinity to access innovative diagnostic and therapeutic drugs that are not currently available. The non-exclusive agreement outlines the conversion of experimental radiopharmaceuticals into therapeutically useful medications.
In June 2021, Curium, a France-based nuclear medicine solutions provider, acquired IASON for an undisclosed amount. This acquisition is expected to bolster Curium's presence in Europe for its extensive range of life-saving diagnostic techniques. By expanding its geographic reach, Curium aims to serve clients and patients throughout Austria and Central Europe with its diverse range of medications and future pipeline of novel agents. IASON, based in Austria, specializes in radiopharmaceutical development, manufacturing, and distribution for use in positron-emission tomography (PET).
