    Analyst Opinion

    The Oncology Drugs market in Thailand has been growing steadily over the past few years, driven by various factors such as an aging population, increasing cancer incidence rates, and advancements in medical technology.

    Customer preferences:
    Thai customers have shown a growing preference for targeted therapies and immunotherapies over traditional chemotherapy. This is due to the fact that these treatments have fewer side effects and are more effective in treating certain types of cancer. Additionally, there is a growing demand for personalized medicine, which involves tailoring treatment plans to individual patients based on their genetic makeup.

    Trends in the market:
    The Oncology Drugs market in Thailand has seen a trend towards the development of biosimilars, which are cheaper versions of biologic drugs. This is due to the fact that biosimilars are becoming more widely accepted as safe and effective alternatives to their branded counterparts. Additionally, there has been a trend towards the development of combination therapies, which involve using multiple drugs to treat cancer in order to increase their effectiveness.

    Local special circumstances:
    One of the unique challenges in the Thai market is the lack of access to healthcare in rural areas. This has led to a growing demand for telemedicine and other remote healthcare services, which can help to bridge the gap between patients in rural areas and healthcare providers in urban areas. Additionally, there is a growing demand for affordable cancer treatments, as many patients are unable to afford the high cost of branded drugs.

    Underlying macroeconomic factors:
    The Thai government has been investing heavily in healthcare infrastructure and technology in recent years, which has helped to drive growth in the Oncology Drugs market. Additionally, the country's aging population and increasing cancer incidence rates have created a growing demand for cancer treatments. Finally, Thailand's position as a hub for medical tourism has helped to attract foreign investment in the healthcare sector, which has further contributed to the growth of the Oncology Drugs market.

    Cancer worldwide - Statistics & Facts

    Cancer is one of the leading causes of death worldwide, with lung cancer alone ranked the sixth leading cause of death in 2021. Cancer, also known as malignant tumors and neoplasms, is the result of interactions between personal genetic factors and external agents causing abnormal transformations of cells into tumors over time. As the global population has increased in age, the incidence of new cancer cases has also risen, contributing to a higher number of deaths each year. In 2022, nearly 10 million deaths were caused by cancer worldwide- a number which is expected to reach over 15 million by 2040.
