The Kaposi's sarcoma market has been comprehensively analyzed in IMARC's new report titled "Kaposi's Sarcoma Market: Epidemiology, Industry Trends, Share, Size, Growth, Opportunity, and Forecast 2024-2034". Kaposi's sarcoma (KS) refers to a type of cancer that affects the cell linings of the blood and lymph vessels. The symptoms of the ailment depend on the location and extent of the lesions. The most typical indication is the development of red or purple patches and nodules on the skin or mucous membranes, which may be painless or tender. These lesions can vary in size as well as number and may be flat or raised. The condition can also affect internal organs, leading to symptoms such as shortness of breath, chest pain, abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting, etc. In cases of HIV-associated Kaposi's sarcoma, the disease may be accompanied by other indications of advanced HIV infection, including fever, night sweats, weight loss, fatigue, etc. The diagnosis involves a physical examination and a biopsy of the affected tissue. The biopsy sample is examined under a microscope to look for the characteristic spindle-shaped cells that are seen in KS. Several additional procedures are performed to determine the extent of the ailment, such as imaging studies like X-rays, CT scans, or MRI scans. Various blood tests are also advised to check for infection with Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus.

The increasing cases of human herpesvirus 8 (HHV-8) infections that affect the cell linings of blood vessels and lymphatic vessels, leading to the formation of lesions, are primarily driving the Kaposi's sarcoma market. Furthermore, the widespread adoption of targeted therapy drugs, such as bevacizumab or pazopanib, to target specific proteins or pathways that are involved in the development of the ailment is acting as another significant growth-inducing factor. Additionally, the inflating utilization of photodynamic therapy as a treatment option, which uses a special light and a photosensitizing drug to destroy cancer cells, is further augmenting the market growth. Moreover, the escalating demand for topical treatments, including imiquimod cream and retinoids, to treat lesions on the skin or mucous membranes caused by KS is also creating a positive outlook for the market. Apart from this, the introduction of numerous advanced imaging techniques, such as magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and positron emission tomography (PET), which have greatly improved the ability to detect as well as monitor lesions in various parts of the body, including soft tissues, bones, lymph nodes, etc., is expected to drive the Kaposi's sarcoma market in the coming years.
IMARC Group's new report provides an exhaustive analysis of the Kaposi’s sarcoma 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 Kaposi’s sarcoma 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 Kaposi’s sarcoma market in any manner.
Key Highlights:
- In the United States, around 2,000 cases of Kaposi sarcoma are reported each year or 6 cases per million people.
- The major group in the United States that develops Kaposi sarcoma is the posttransplant population, with a frequency of roughly 1 in 200.
- In Africa, the annual incidence of Kaposi sarcoma is quite high, with 37.7 per 100,000 men and 20.5 per 100,000 women.
- Classic Kaposi sarcoma mainly affects older males of Mediterranean and Eastern European descent.
- Classic Kaposi sarcoma primarily affects men, with a male-to-female ratio of 10-15:1.
Drugs:
Paclitaxel injection, known by the brand name Taxol, is one of the most commonly used anticancer medications and is used to treat Kaposi’s sarcoma. Taxol injection is a viscous fluid that is clear, colorless, or slightly yellow. It comes in 30 mg (5 mL), 100 mg (16.7 mL), and 300 mg (50 mL) multidose vials.
Vas-01 (recombinant fusion protein) is being developed for the treatment of Kaposi sarcoma. The medication is given both intravenously and intramuscularly. The recombinant fusion protein is made up of the full-length extracellular domain (soluble) of human receptor tyrosine kinase ephrin type-B receptor 4 (sEphB4) linked at the C-terminus to full-length human serum albumin.
Aldoxorubicin, an albumin-linked formulation of doxorubicin, has undergone Phase II studies in sarcoma and glioblastoma. Its unique molecular structure, with an acid labile albumin linker, sets it apart from doxorubicin. Phase II trials show that aldoxorubicin passes the blood-brain barrier and has a lower cardiotoxicity profile. Aldoxorubicin can be administered at larger individual and cumulative dosages than doxorubicin due to its superior cardiotoxicity profile.
