Castrate-resistant Prostate Cancer Market Introduction and Overview
According to SPER Market Research, the Global Castrate-resistant Prostate Cancer Market is estimated to reach USD 30.78 billion by 2034 with a CAGR of 8.91%.
The report includes an in-depth analysis of the Global Castrate-resistant Prostate Cancer Market, including market size and trends, product mix, Applications, and supplier analysis. The global castrate-resistant prostate cancer market was estimated at USD 13.11 billion in 2024 and is expected to increase at a CAGR of 8.91% between 2025 and 2034. This expansion is being driven by the rising prevalence of prostate cancer, particularly among the elderly, which is contributing to an increase in castrate-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC). Furthermore, advances in therapeutic alternatives, such as next-generation hormonal therapies, chemotherapy, and immunotherapies, are boosting market growth. The growing awareness of prostate cancer, as well as the need of early detection and treatment, are further driving market expansion.
By Therapy Insights: The hormonal therapy segment led the global castrate-resistant prostate cancer market in 2024, capturing a large revenue share due to the success of advanced hormonal therapies in treating CRPC. Hormonal therapies like enzalutamide and abiraterone target the androgen pathways that promote CRPC's progression. They significantly prolong survival and delay disease progression in patients resistant to standard hormone therapies, confirming their status as the top treatment for CRPC. The immunotherapy segment is expected to grow significantly from 2025 to 2034 due to the increasing awareness of its ability to provide lasting responses and improve survival for CRPC patients. Immunotherapy, including drugs like pembrolizumab, helps the immune system target cancer cells. While its effectiveness in prostate cancer varies, research and clinical trials are looking into combining it with other treatments to boost its results. Increased investment and positive study outcomes are likely to lead to advancements in this segment.
Regional Insights: North America held the largest revenue share of the global castrate-resistant prostate cancer market in 2024 due to a high prevalence of the disease, strong healthcare infrastructure, and significant investment in research and treatment. Leading pharmaceutical companies and ongoing clinical trials for advanced therapies support market growth. Increased awareness of prostate cancer and the importance of early detection and treatment also contribute. Government initiatives and funding help develop and adopt innovative treatments for CRPC.
Market Competitive Landscape:
Astellas Pharma, Inc, Pfizer, Inc, Sanofi, and Johnson & Johnson Services, Inc. are a few of the major players in the castrate-resistant prostate cancer market. Johnson & Johnson Services, Inc. contributes to the CRPC market with its drug Erleada (apalutamide), which improves overall survival compared to other treatments. Sanofi plays a vital role with its drug Jevtana (cabazitaxel), also improving overall survival rates in metastatic CRPC.
Recent Developments:
- In June 2024, AstraZeneca acquired Fusion Pharmaceuticals. This move strengthens AstraZeneca's cancer treatment options, especially in radio conjugates. Fusion's main program, FPI-2265, targets metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer.
- In March 2024, Johnson & Johnson completed the acquisition of Ambrx Biopharma. Ambrx's synthetic biology platform helps develop advanced antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs), strengthening J&J's oncology pipeline, especially with ARX517 for metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer.
