### Increasing Incidence of Colorectal Cancer Cases Fuels Market Growth

Colorectal cancer is characterized by malignant tumors that develop in the colon or rectum. Various lifestyle factors, including low consumption of fruits and vegetables, smoking, sedentary behavior, obesity, high intake of processed meats, and excessive alcohol use, are significant contributors to the rising number of colorectal cancer cases. This type of cancer ranks as the third most commonly diagnosed cancer (excluding skin cancers) in the United States. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), colorectal cancer is the third most prevalent cancer globally and the second leading cause of cancer-related fatalities. Approximately 10% of all cancer diagnoses worldwide are attributed to colorectal cancer. The American Cancer Society estimates that in 2023, around 106,000 new cases of colon cancer and approximately 46,000 new cases of rectal cancer were reported in the United States.

Data from the European Cancer Information System indicates that colorectal cancer represented about 12.7% of all new cancer diagnoses in 2020, accounting for roughly 12.4% of total cancer-related deaths in the EU-27 countries that same year. Due to its high prevalence, colorectal cancer is the second most frequently diagnosed cancer after breast cancer and the second leading cause of cancer deaths after lung cancer. The International Agency for Research on Cancer and GLOBOCAN reported that around 1 million new cases of colorectal cancer were identified in Asia in 2020, with countries such as Japan, Malaysia, China, Singapore, Turkey, and South Korea exhibiting higher prevalence rates compared to others in the Asia Pacific region. Projections indicate that by 2040, the global burden of colorectal cancer could rise by 72%, surpassing 3 million new cases, which poses a significant threat to public health. Consequently, the increasing incidence of colorectal cancer is a primary driver of growth in the colorectal cancer treatment market.
