Global Renal Cancer Drugs Market Overview
Renal Cancer Drugs Market Size was valued at USD 3.72 Billion in 2023. The Global Renal Cancer Drugs industry is projected to grow from USD 4.73 Billion in 2024 to USD 8.48 Billion by 2032, exhibiting a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.12% during the forecast period (2024 - 2032).
Renal cancer also called as kidney cancer or hypernephroma. Renal cancer is a disease in which kidney cells become malignant, the cells start proliferating out of control and start forming a tumor. Principal locations for kidney cancer are renal tube and renal pelvis. It is observed both in males and females between the age group of 50 to 80 years.
The key factors responsible for influencing renal cancer drugs market are increasing use of tobacco, smoking, and increasing alcohol consumption which can also lead to cause renal cancer. Other factors of renal cancer drugs market which support to cause renal cancer are obesity and mutation in von Hippel-Lindau (VHL) gene. According to the World Cancer Research Fund, 2018 database has estimated kidney cancer is the ninth most commonly occurring cancer in men and 14th most commonly occurring cancer in women. According to the American Cancer Society in 2018, 63,340 new cases of kidney cancer are estimated in the US This is expected to provide favorable backgrounds for the renal cancer drugs market growth during the forecast period.
However, factors such as the high cost of expensive chemotherapy, increasing preference for generic drugs and side effects associated with drugs are expected to restrict the renal cancer drugs market growth during the forecast period.
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved Mounjaro™ (tirzepatide) injection as an adjunct to diet and exercise to improve glycemic control in adults with type 2 diabetes, a GIP (glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide) and GLP-1 (glucagon-like peptide-1) receptor agonist made by Eli Lilly and Company's (NYSE: LLY), May 2022. It should not be used in patients with type one diabetes mellitus since there are no studies carried out on it for pancreatitis history patients. which is the first FDA-approved GIP & GLP-1 agonist that acts on GIP and GLP-1 receptors found naturally within the body called incretins.
On January 2023, Everimmune said it had treated its first patient as part of a phase one clinical trial involving lung and kidney cancer patients studying Oncobax AK. The study aims to evaluate how effective Oncobax AK can be used together with immunotherapy treatment, as well as its toxicity. In addition, for this trial, EverImmune intends to enroll 60 people: 41 for renal cell carcinoma (RCC) and 19 for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), spanning phases I & IIa, using four sites based in France or Belgium. Phase I results will be available by H1-end. At the same time, approvals were based on data from the SURPASS program phase III with active comparators – Injectable Semaglutide 1mg, Insulin degludec, and Insulin glargine, which included several compounds like Mounjaro.
As we approach the end of this year, Eli Lilly puts forth its plan for the year ahead before the biopharma industry enters into a lull of the Christmas holidays. For example, next year, Lilly intends to file five regulatory applications along with six phase III trials initiation and present data from 6 additional phase III trials, according to executives at the investor presentation on Tuesday. With that said and done, new approvals alongside diabetes breakthroughs such as Mounjaro are projected to help the firm make sales worth $30 billion next year, as said by execs at Lilly. The company's 2023 regulatory submissions will involve empagliflozin for chronic kidney disease (CKD) in Japan, Europe, and the USA; donanemab for early Alzheimer's disease (A.D.) in Japan, U.S., and Europe; tirzepatide for obesity; lebrikizumab for atopic dermatitis in Japan.

It is estimated that North America dominated the global renal cancer drugs market owing to the increasing innovations in clinical practice, cancer research, and access to cancer treatment in this region. The American Cancer Society estimated about 22,660 women and 42,680 men new cases of kidney cancer in 2018 in the US This influences the market growth in North America.
Europe stood the second largest in the renal cancer drugs market owing to the increasing use of smoking and increasing tobacco usage. According to the World Health Organization’s (WHO) Fact Sheet on Tobacco and Oral Health (2018), Europe has the highest prevalence of smoking among adult population that is 28% of adults in Europe are engaged in smoking. Such a high prevalence of tobacco smoking in this region facilitates the market growth.
Asia-Pacific was projected to be the fastest growing region for the global renal cancer drugs market in 2017. The market is expected to witness growth owing to the rising prevalence of kidney cancer, changing lifestyle, and increasing tobacco use within the population. Such a high prevalence of oral cancer favors the market growth in this region. According to the National Center for Biotechnology Information, August 2016, report 121, 099 renal cancer cases were recorded in Asian countries in 2012, the number is expected to grow in coming years. This influences the market growth in this region.
The Middle East and Africa holds the least share in the global renal cancer drugs market due to the presence of poor health expenditure, low awareness, and economically diverse countries. However, the market is expected to witness growth due to increasing cancer care programs in the Middle East.
