Global Cryptococcosis Market Trends
North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, Latin America, the Middle East, and Africa comprise the regional segments of the global cryptococcosis market. North America is anticipated to represent a sizable share of the global cryptococcosis market due to the rising incidence of the disease, advancements in technology, and higher costs associated with treatment in this region. In the United States, for example, the prevalence of cryptococcosis is estimated to be 0.4–1.3 cases per 100,000 in the general population and 2–7 cases per 100,000 in people living with AIDS, with a case fatality ratio of roughly 12%, according to a 2019 National Institute of Health report. North America has a substantial market share, supporting the growing prevalence of cryptococcosis in endemic locations—the entire regional market growth. The global HIV patient population is expanding, which is driving the industry's growth. 15% of HIV patients have been found to have died from cryptococcosis, according to reports. HIV patients' impaired immune systems make it simple for the fungus to spread because of this. Lack of diagnostic tests prevents people in poor countries from receiving an early diagnosis, which affects the market. Advancements in detection and treatment are driving the industry, and numerous government agencies are striving to eradicate the disease. During the 2021–2028 forecast period, the market for cryptococcosis is expected to gain from advancements in drug discovery, an evolving clinical trial landscape, and growing efforts by public, private, and healthcare providers. On the other hand, high treatment costs and a lack of clinical knowledge among patients would make market expansion difficult. Additionally, a limited range of testing and diagnostics due to higher mortality rates among patients infected with cryptococcosis and a shortage of skilled technicians would challenge the cryptococcosis market in the anticipated year.
