Cutaneous T-Cell Lymphoma (CTCL) Therapeutics Market: Overview

Cutaneous T-cell lymphoma (CTCL) is an extremely rare form of cancer with origins in the white blood cells called T cells or T lymphocytes. They are used to enhance the body’s mechanism to fight germs by upgrading the immunity system. In the case of cutaneous T-cell lymphoma, the lymphocytes develop abnormalities causing them to attack the skin itself.

Some of the results of CTCL include skin redness like rashes and scaly or slightly raised skin patches in round forms, and some cases include skin tumors as well. Even though there are several types of CTCL the most common form is the mycosis fungoides.

The exact cause of the disease is still unknown. Some theories conclude that it is a result of exposure to carcinogens, antigen persistence, or retroviruses. Mycosis fungoides does not have any cure but with the right and timely treatment, a patient may live on for years without any symptoms. It is not as aggressive as other forms of cancer and progresses slowly.

Symptoms for CTCL include lumps formed on the skin that may break open, hair loss, enlarged lymph nodes, an intensely itchy red-skin spot, and elevated round skin patches that may itch intensely. Generally, cancer occurs as a result of mutations in the DNA. In the case of CTCL, too many mutated and abnormal T-cells led to attacking the skin.

Covid-19 Impact:

The global market cap was negatively impacted due to Covid-19 owing to a reduction in the number of services assisting patients suffering from CTCL or other diseases as the majority of the resources were used for the treatment of Covid-19 patients. The global market also witnessed delays in various clinical trials for CTCL and other cancer-related cases due to lockdowns and other restrictions laid down by governments.

Cutaneous T-Cell Lymphoma (CTCL) Therapeutics Market: Growth Drivers

Increasing number of CTCL cases to aid market growth

The global cutaneous T-cell lymphoma (CTCL) therapeutics market is projected to be driven by the rising number of cutaneous T-cell lymphoma cases across the globe. As per a 2020 study submitted by the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society, T-cell lymphoma is one of the most common forms of skin cancer.

Three out of every four skin lymphoma-related cases are diagnosed to be suffering from cutaneous T-cell lymphoma. More than 15% of non-Hodgkin lymphomas (NHLs) are T-cell lymphoma cases in the USA, as per a report by Cancer.org whereas the disease is around 1% of all kinds of lymphomas.

The concern over the disease has been increasing over the past few years since even though the doctors are aware of mutations in T-cells that make them grow with abnormalities at an uncontrollable rate, however, there is no significant data that can confirm the exact reason for these changes making the disease incurable as of 2022. Some of the reasons for CTCL include lowered immunity levels resulting from HIV or taking medications or drugs to suppress the immunity that is generally observed post organ transplant procedures.

CTCL is more commonly found in the male population with the risk rate being twice as high as in the case of females. The disease is found mostly in the geriatric population or people between the age group of 40 to 60 years. Another significant aspect is that the disease is prevalent at a higher rate in black Americans as compared to other racial groups.

Cutaneous T-Cell Lymphoma (CTCL) Therapeutics Market: Restraints

Non-availability of effective treatment to restrict the market growth

The global market cap may have restricted growth owing to the nonavailability of concrete and effective treatment for the disease. Even though CTCL is not fatal, except in rare cases, unlike other harsher forms of cancer, it deteriorates the quality of patients’ life. The main reason that the scientific community has failed to obtain a sure treatment plan is that there is a lack of exact understanding of the root cause of the disease.

The global market growth may not develop high profits as a result of unawareness amongst the population about the proper detection of the symptoms. The signs of the disease may be passed along a normal skin rash in case the patient has no prior knowledge of CTCL.

Cutaneous T-Cell Lymphoma (CTCL) Therapeutics Market: Opportunities

Long line-up of clinical trials to provide market growth opportunities

Cancer and its various forms have been in existence for a long time but the healthcare, research, and pharmaceutical sectors have been unable to find a cure for the same. The number of cancer patients and subsequent deaths have increased significantly over the years. In 2020, over 5,40,000 people were diagnosed with NHLs, and the death toll was around 20,250 as per official cancer-related websites. These high numbers have propelled the need and efforts toward cancer treatments which are projected to provide global market growth opportunities.

Cutaneous T-Cell Lymphoma (CTCL) Therapeutics Market: Challenges

High cost of treatment to challenge market growth

Cancer treatment costs may go up to millions over time depending on the aggressiveness of the cancer cells. As per studies, for treating aggressive NHL, the mean initial cost is up to USD 10,000 monthly. In the secondary phase, the amount is somewhere between USD 3000 to USD 4000. These numbers indicate the high expenses patients have to bear, which may become impossible for patients in developing regions thus creating challenging situations for global market expansion.

Cutaneous T-Cell Lymphoma (CTCL) Therapeutics Market: Segmentation

The global cutaneous T-cell lymphoma (CTCL) therapeutics market is segmented based on treatment, type, and region.

Based on treatment, the global market segments are chemotherapy, radiation therapy, topical therapy, immunotherapy, targeted therapy, and others. Topical therapy may generate the highest revenues in the global market owing to the rise in several treatment approvals, research activities, and high funding received for further development.

However, chemotherapy is projected to grow at the highest CAGR because of its various applications throughout the cancer stages. The global chemotherapy market was around USD 135,400 million in 2020.

Based on type, the global market segments are Sezary syndrome and mycosis fungoides. The global market is projected to be dominated by the mycosis fungoides owing to its high prevalence as compared to the Sezary syndrome. As per the National Library of Medicine, 1 in every 100,000 to 3,50,000 people was infected by mycosis CTCL. More than 70% of T-cell lymphomas are due to this type. A lot of medicines for the treatment of both types are receiving approvals by government agencies for further use. A lot of these drugs are now called breakthrough therapy or Orphan drugs.

Recent Developments:

• In June 2020, Japan-based Kyowa Kirin managed to enter the European market with the launch of Poteligeo or mogamulizumab. The drug provides efficient treatment for Sezary syndrome and mycosis fungoides, both of which lack a 100% effective treatment plan resulting in high demands for the same in the global market
• In November 2021, Soligenix, In, a leading biopharmaceutical firm specializing in the development and commercialization of products used in the treatment of rare diseases, announced that the company made great financial advancements in the 3rd quarter of 2021 with exhaustive activities across public health solution and the Specialized BioTherapeutics segments. The company was working towards the development of HyBryte which can be used in the CTCL treatment process.
• In November 2019, Celgene Corporation was acquired by the Bristol-Myers Squibb Company post the approval receipt from government regulatory bodies. With the acquisition, the company intends to become a global leader in the biopharmaceutical sector.
