The anaplastic astrocytoma market has been comprehensively analyzed in IMARC's new report titled "Anaplastic Astrocytoma Market: Epidemiology, Industry Trends, Share, Size, Growth, Opportunity, and Forecast 2024-2034". Anaplastic astrocytoma is a type of brain tumor that arises from astrocytes, which are star-shaped cells that provide support and nourishment to nerve cells in the brain. The disease is mainly characterized by the presence of rapidly dividing, abnormal astrocytic cells. The symptoms of this ailment can vary depending on the location and size of the tumor. Individuals suffering from the condition may experience persistent headaches, double or blurred vision, seizures, changes in behavior or personality, cognitive impairments, focal neurological deficits, etc. The diagnosis of anaplastic astrocytoma typically involves a combination of underlying indications, medical history, and neurological studies. Several other diagnostic procedures, like magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), immunohistochemistry, fluorescence in-situ hybridization analysis, etc., are also utilized to help in identifying the presence of specific markers that are characteristic of this condition. The healthcare provider may further perform a histological examination of a tissue sample obtained through a brain biopsy to determine the grade and type of tumor cells among patients.
The increasing cases of genetic disorders that cause numerous gene mutations in cellular DNA are primarily driving the anaplastic astrocytoma market. In addition to this, the rising incidences of various risk factors, such as prior exposure to high-dose radiation, advancing age, unhealthy diet, family history of gliomas, stress, etc., are also bolstering the market growth. Furthermore, the widespread adoption of anti-angiogenic therapy, which aims to inhibit the development of new blood vessels that supply nutrients to the cancerous cells, thereby preventing disease progression, is acting as another significant growth-inducing factor. Additionally, the escalating demand for tumor-treating field treatment, which uses low-intensity or frequency-alternating electrical fields to disrupt cell division and block the proliferation of tumors in patients, is also creating a positive outlook for the market. Apart from this, the emerging popularity of targeted therapies, since they aim to directly interfere with specific molecules or signaling pathways that are involved in the survival of cancerous cells while potentially sparing the surrounding healthy tissues, is expected to drive the anaplastic astrocytoma market in the coming years.
IMARC Group's new report provides an exhaustive analysis of the anaplastic astrocytoma market in the United States, EU4 (Germany, Spain, Italy, and France), United Kingdom, and Japan. This includes treatment practices, in-market, and pipeline drugs, share of individual therapies, market performance across the seven major markets, market performance of key companies and their drugs, etc. The report also provides the current and future patient pool across the seven major markets. According to the report, the United States has the largest patient pool for anaplastic astrocytoma and also represents the largest market for its treatment. Furthermore, the current treatment practice/algorithm, market drivers, challenges, opportunities, reimbursement scenario, unmet medical needs, etc., have also been provided in the report. This report is a must-read for manufacturers, investors, business strategists, researchers, consultants, and all those who have any kind of stake or are planning to foray into the anaplastic astrocytoma market in any manner.
TEMODAR is an alkylating medication used to treat adults with anaplastic astrocytoma. Temozolomide is an oral prescription-only medicine (although an intravenous variant is available) that is given once a day. The half-life of temozolomide is about 1.8 hours, but the active half-life of the metabolite (MTIC) is slightly longer.
Eflornithine, or α-diflurormethylornithine (DFMO), is an investigational treatment for recurrent anaplastic astrocytoma. Eflornithine oral solution specifically targets and irreversibly inhibits ornithine decarboxylase (ODC), an enzyme required for polyamine production, DNA, and RNA function.
Zotiraciclib is a powerful oral selective kinase inhibitor being developed to treat anaplastic astrocytoma. The first Phase 1b clinical trial of zotiraciclib is a multi-arm, dose-finding study evaluating zotiraciclib plus dose-dense or metronomic temozolomide in people with recurring anaplastic astrocytomas.
