Global Gemcitabine HCL Market Dynamics

The gemcitabine HCL market growth is driven by several factors, such as an increase in the geriatric population, an increase in cancer diseases, technological advancements, and research activities for improvising the treatment.

The prevalence of cancer disease is expected to drive the market growth     

The rise in breast cancer, pancreatic cancer, and many more is increasing the demand for gemcitabine HCL globally. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), cancer is the main cause of death globally. Approximately 10 million deaths in 2020 will be due to cancer, or nearly one in six deaths of patients. The most common cancers are breast, lung, colon, rectum, and prostate cancers. Around one-third of all cancer deaths are due to high body mass index, alcohol consumption, tobacco use, low vegetable, and fruit intake, and lack of physical activity. According to WHO data from February 2022, in 2020, there will be 2.26 million cases of breast cancer, 2.21 million cases of lung cancer, 1.20 million cases of skin cancer, and 1.93 million cases of colon and rectum cancer worldwide. In addition, every year, 400,000 children develop cancer. Cervical cancer is the most common cancer. The incidence of cancer disease increases with age, mostly due to risk factors building up for specific cancers that rise with age. To treat a cancer patient, it is necessary to diagnose cancer on time. Many cancers can be cured if detected early and treated effectively. In the proper selection of treatment, both cancer and the individual are considered for treatment. Gemcitabine HCL is given intravenously and belongs to a family of drugs called antimetabolites, which are very similar to normal substances within the cell. It is cell-cycle specific. When the cells incorporate these substances into the cellular metabolism, they are unable to divide. Mainly, it shows anitumor effects by promoting programmed cell death of cancer cells undergoing DNA synthesis. Specifically it blocks progression of cells through the G1/S-phase boundary. That's how it prevents the division of cells and prevents different cancers.

The side effects of gemcitabine HCL will hamper the growth of the market  

However, studies have shown side effects of gemcitabine HCL, such as unusual weakness, loss of appetite, dark urine, pain spreading to the arm or shoulder, sudden severe headache fever, chills, body aches, flu symptoms, hearing problems, breathing problems, and chest pain and heavy feeling. These side effects create health risks among patients, which may adversely affect the market's growth.

COVID-19 Impact on Global Gemcitabine HCL Market

The appearance of COVID-19 considerably impacted the global demand for these drugs due to their antiviral activity. In order to prevent the novel virus from rising into a pandemic human pathogen, it is essential that public health professionals can diagnose the infection, control its spread, and treat its causes. For instance, due to the antiviral activity of gemcitabine, HCL is compiled in the list of drugs with the potential to be used in the treatment of COVID-19 infection based on experience in treating a subsequence of viral diseases such as MERS-CoV and SARS-CoV infection. Gemcitabine hydrochloride is one of the nucleoside analog inhibitors for this purpose. It is valid for the treatment of SARS-CoV-2 treatment. Due to this, the demand is high in the market to treat the infection. As the cases of coronavirus rise worldwide, the demand has increased worldwide. For instance, as per the WHO data report of September 2022, the confirmed cases of coronaviruses are 609,848,852 globally.

On the other hand, many patients faced difficulty receiving their regular treatments during the pandemic due to transportation restrictions and lockdowns. However, because the situation is reversing in the middle of 2022 rather than 2021, the patient can now receive treatment in the hospital. The market will also show good growth in the forecast period.
