Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is a cancer of the myeloid blood cells, causing extreme and rapid growth of abnormal white blood cells of the bone marrow. The rapid buildup of abnormal white blood cells causes interference in the production of normal blood cells. AML has a propensity to increase towards age. Replacement of normal bone marrow with cancer cells causes a drop in blood constituents such as red blood cells, platelets, white blood cells etc. which causes symptoms such as fatigue, breathlessness, easy bruising and bleeding, and increased risk of infection. The market driving factors for acute myeloid leukemia (AML) are rise in risk factors such as exposures to carcinogens such as ionizing radiation, chemicals etc. Presence of other blood disorders and genetics is also involved for the higher risk of AML. Other market drivers are increasing number of cancer hospitals, greater awareness, good reimbursement scenario etc. The market constraints are poor cure rates of the present drugs, serious side effects of the drugs etc.
Considering all these factors the market for acute myeloid leukemia treatment is expected to reach $ 1.2 billion by the end of 2023, this market is projected to growing at a CAGR of Approx 5.3 % during 2017-2023.
