Overview of Report Findings
Increasing Burden of Colorectal Cancer:
According to the World Health Organization (WHO), colon cancer is the second leading cause of cancer-related deaths worldwide. In 2022, there were over 1.9 million new colorectal cancer cases and more than 930,000 deaths due to this disease globally. Incidence rates were highest in Europe, as well as Australia and New Zealand, while mortality rates were highest in Eastern Europe. By 2040, the burden of colorectal cancer is projected to increase to 3.2 million new cases per year-a 63% rise-and to 1.6 million deaths per year, reflecting a 73% increase. The increasing prevalence of colorectal cancer is expected to drive the demand for its treatment in the coming years.
Surging Advancements in Treatments and Product Approvals:
The advancement and acceptance of sophisticated treatments; such as targeted therapies (e.g., cetuximab, bevacizumab, regorafenib), immunotherapies, and combination therapies; have enhanced patient outcomes and broadened treatment options. Continued research and new product approvals, including biosimilars and personalized medicine, are driving market growth. For instance, in April 2025, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved the combination of two immunotherapy drugs, nivolumab (Opdivo) and ipilimumab (Yervoy), for the initial treatment of some patients with advanced colorectal cancer. This approval expands the use of this immunotherapy combination into the first-line setting and can be used as the initial treatment.
Geographical Insights:
In 2024, North America led the market with a substantial revenue share, followed by Europe and APAC. Asia Pacific is expected to register the highest CAGR during the forecast period.

The rising prevalence of colorectal cancer and increasing innovations in cancer therapies drive the colorectal cancer treatment market growth. Colorectal cancer continues to be one of the leading causes of illness and death worldwide, with millions of new cases diagnosed each year. The increasing prevalence of CRC directly correlates with an increased demand for a wide range of treatments such as surgery, chemotherapy, targeted therapies, immunotherapy, and supportive care services. Pharmaceutical and biotech firms are investing significantly in research and development to meet unmet needs, especially for younger patients and those suffering from advanced or resistant diseases.
In November 2023, Takeda received the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approval for FRUZAQLA (fruquintinib), an oral targeted therapy for adults with metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) who have been previously treated with fluoropyrimidine-, oxaliplatin-, and irinotecan-based chemotherapy. Additionally, the rise in early-onset cases is encouraging advancements in personalized medicine and less invasive surgical methods. According to an article published in White Rose in December 2024, in England, the use of minimally invasive surgery (MIS) for resections has significantly increased. For colon cancer, the percentage of resections performed using MIS increased from 34.9% in 2007 to 72.9% in 2021, while for rectal cancer it grew from 28.8% to 72.5%.
Additionally, robot-assisted surgery for colon cancer increased from 0.1% in 2007 to 2.7% in 2021, and for rectal cancer from 0.2% in 2007 to 7.9% in 2021. However, there was a wide variation in the adoption of MIS at the hospital level between during 2007-2021.
The report from The Insight Partners, therefore, provides several stakeholders-including PDX model developers, academic and research organizations, healthcare facilities, and others, with valuable insights to successfully navigate this evolving market landscape and unlock new opportunities.
