Doxorubicin (DOX) is a generic drug used in chemotherapy to treat cancer. It is administered intravenously as an injectable solution or in lyophilised powder form using a peripherally inserted central line catheter (PICC) or central venous catheter (CVC). DOX is quickly removed by enzymes and undergoes hydrolytic breakdown in plasma following intravenous injection. It is used to treat a variety of cancers, including breast cancer, bladder cancer, Kaposi's sarcoma, lymphoma, Wilms' tumour, non-Hodgkin lymphoma, and acute lymphocytic leukaemia.

Drivers: The global doxorubicin market is growing mainly due to the rising rates of cancer. As a result, DOX is now being used more frequently in conjunction with chemotherapy drugs for various types of carcinoma. There is also an increased preference for DOX because of the demand for minimally invasive surgical procedures and the aging population unable to have major surgeries. Governments are promoting technological growth in clinical oncology, such as intravenous free therapy and digital microfluidics, while also raising awareness about cancer treatments. This has significantly boosted the demand for DOX. Researchers are investing in clinical trials to develop better DOX formulations, and partnerships in clinical trials are likely to enhance market prospects in the future.

Challenges: Side Effects Associated with Use of Doxorubicin Doxorubicin (Dox) can induce a variety of side effects, including cardiotoxicity, gastrointestinal problems, and myelosuppression. These side effects can deter the use of doxorubicin for cancer treatment. Healthcare specialists and scientists should prioritise research to address these concerns. Furthermore, the emergence of other therapeutic options such as immunotherapies and target treatments is projected to limit doxorubicin market expansion in the following decade.

Market Trends: Recent advancements in chemotherapy have made treatments more effective and safer through new formulations like nanoparticle encapsulation and targeted delivery systems, which lower heart damage and improve results. Nanoparticle formulations aim to deliver drugs directly to cancer cells while reducing overall toxicity. They show better drug behavior and less heart damage than standard doxorubicin. For example, Doxil, a liposomal formulation, helps avoid quick drug removal and targets tumors more effectively. Research groups are focusing on combining doxorubicin with heart-protective agents like dexrazoxane to reduce heart damage caused by oxidative stress. New methods using polymeric micelles and nanocarrier systems are also being tested to improve doxorubicin delivery, with the aim of lowering its harmful effects on the heart.
