Photodynamic Therapy Market Overview

Photodynamic Therapy is one of the fastest-growing markets in the pharmaceutical industry, with rapid adoption across developing and developed markets. Technological advancements in the industry are encouraging the wide adoption of different device types. Photodynamic therapy involving light-sensitive medicine and a light source to destroy abnormal cells is widely being used worldwide with a growing incidence of cancers, actinic keratosis, and others.

Ease of application, less painful process, and reimbursement trends across developed countries support the market demand. Potential advantages such as less invasive than surgery, no long-term adverse events, PDT can be repeated many times in the same location, and other benefits. Accordingly, it is used in diverse conditions.

In addition to oncological conditions, PDT is effectively used to treat multiple dermatological and infectious diseases such as psoriasis Vulgaris, Darier’s disease (DAR), cutaneous sarcoidosis (granulomatous disease), lichen planus, acne vulgaris, acne inversa, rosacea, sebaceous hyperplasia, verrucae Vulgaris, cutaneous leishmaniasis, condyloma acuminatum (genital warts), and circumscribed scleroderma. One in three cancer diagnoses worldwide can be attributed to skin cancer (Zink, Hautarzt. 2017 Nov;68 (11):919-928), which presents significant scope for photodynamic drugs and devices.

Ophthalmologic conditions such as age-related macular degeneration (AMD) and choroidal neovascularization can also be treated by PDT.

PDT is widely researched and used to treat various cancers, remove bacteria and inflammations, and also to healing various skin diseases. PDT is a two-step process: The first step is the application of a drug known as “photosensitizer,” or a precursor of this type of drug, which tends to collect in specific cells; The second step is the activation of the photosensitizer by controlled exposure to a selective light source in the presence of oxygen.

The market growth is driven by the growing prevalence of cancer around the world, advancements in photosensitizer device technologies, robust demand for personalized medicine, and others. On the other hand, challenges associated with the negative impact of COVID-19 conditions, limitations of photodynamic therapy, and lack of trained personnel pose market expansion challenges, and others restrict the market growth.

Photodynamic Therapy Market Trend - Advancements in photosensitizer device technologies

Photosensitizers are used in the treatment of various types of tumors. Significant investments in the development of photosensitizers led to rapid evolution in the field. From first-generation PSs such as Porphyrin, and Hematoporphyrin to Second-generation PSs such as Benzoporphyrin, 5-Aminolevulinic acid, Protoporphyrin IX, Phthalocyanine, and Chlorin to third-generation photosensitizers such as Antibody conjugates, and Encapsulated agents into carriers, the field continues to evolve rapidly over the forecast period, driven by investments in clinical trials. Rapid advancements in Photosensitizers including enhanced tolerance of the tumor microenvironment, improved tumor-specific selectivity, and feasibility of use in deep tissue support widespread adoption.

Photodynamic Therapy Market Share Analysis- Cancer is the leading revenue generator in 2023

Photodynamic Therapy Market Share- Cancer, Actinic Keratosis, Psoriasis, Acne

Photo Dynamic Therapy uses light-sensitive compounds (photosensitizers) that are activated by light to induce cytotoxicity. These compounds penetrate preferentially into cancer cells, leaving healthy cells intact, and when activated by light, destroy cancer cells with minimal to no side effects. Clinical applications in the fields of dermatology, gastroenterology, neurosurgery, pneumology, gynecology, urology, and ophthalmology present significant potential for treatment.

Colorectal cancer, lung cancer, prostate cancer, head & neck cancer, brain cancer, pancreas cancer, and skin cancer are widely focused areas of cancer. Significant improvements in the areas of precision medicine will drive the way for more efficient and widespread utilization of Photodynamic therapy.

PDT helps to diagnose and treat multiple cancer types at the same time. The light-sensitive drug makes cancer visible, which can be removed by the surgeon. Further, with ongoing clinical trials emphasizing light-sensitive drugs, laser light treatments, non-laser light treatments, and ways of reducing the side effects, the outlook for the adoption of photodynamic therapy in the cancer application segment remains robust.
