Global Proton Therapy Market Outlook

The global proton therapy market size was valued at USD 1314.6 million in 2023, driven by the increasing incidence of cancer across the globe. The market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 12.4% during the forecast period of 2024-2032, with the values likely to rise from USD 1477 million in 2024 to USD 3749.8 million by 2032.

Proton Therapy: Introduction

Proton therapy is a type of radiation therapy that treats cancer with the help of positively charged ions (protons). It may also be used in the treatment of some noncancerous tumours or in conjunction with treatments like chemotherapy or surgery. Proton therapy has garnered high popularity owing to its minimal side effects when compared to conventional methods as doctors have better hold at controlling the site of energy accumulation.

Global Proton Therapy Market Analysis

The rising prevalence of cancer is a major factor leading to proton therapy market demand. While radiation has been a common part of cancer treatment, proton therapy is now gaining popularity owing to its minimal side effects when compared to traditional radiotherapy. It also facilitates the patients to continue with day-to-day lives owing to its painless nature.

The proton therapy market value is also anticipated to grow with increasing encouragement by regulatory authorities like American Society for Radiation Oncology (ASTRO) to apply the therapy on patients. Consequently, new age pharmaceutical companies are now dedicated to use the therapy. In September 2023, Shuttle Pharmaceuticals Holdings, Inc. conveyed their commitment to employ the treatment on patients at the Hampton University Proton Therapy Institute Prostate Cancer & Men's Health Fair.

The market is anticipated to grow with the rising set up proton system into the existing infrastructure. In October 2023, Hitachi launched Southeast Asia’s first proton therapy system in National Cancer Centre Singapore (NCCS). This system is equipped with four rotating gantries and a Real-time image Gating system for Proton Therapy (RGPT) to treat tumours in motion due to respiration. It is also enabled with advanced spot scanning technology to precisely irradiate tumors with compound shapes.
