The radiopharmaceutical theranostics market is poised for growth, driven by the increasing incidence of cancer. Cancer, characterized by abnormal cell growth that can invade and spread, necessitates targeted and personalized approaches for effective treatment. Radiopharmaceutical theranostics plays a crucial role in cancer treatment, offering precision and personalized solutions. In the US alone, the American Cancer Society estimates that 1.9 million new cancer cases may be diagnosed in 2023, resulting in approximately 609,820 deaths. The majority of these diagnoses, 88%, are expected to be in individuals aged 50 and above. The rising prevalence of cancer is a key factor fueling the expansion of the radiopharmaceutical theranostics market.

The growth of the radiopharmaceutical theranostics market is further augmented by the increasing healthcare expenditure. Support from government initiatives, grants, and R&D funding in the radiopharmaceutical theranostics field encourages innovation and the development of new products. According to data from the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) in June 2023, the national health expenditure in the US reached $4.3 trillion in 2021, contributing to 18.3% of the Gross Domestic Product (GDP). This significant healthcare expenditure is expected to drive the radiopharmaceutical theranostics market.

A prominent trend in the radiopharmaceutical theranostics market is technological advancement. Major companies in the market are actively developing advanced technologies to maintain their competitive positions. In March 2021, GE HealthCare Technologies Inc. introduced StarGuide, its latest SPECT/CT technology designed to advance precision health and theranostics. The system incorporates Cadmium Zinc Telluride (CZT) technology, allowing healthcare providers to gain deeper insights into patient conditions and improve outcomes across various care areas. The digital focus detectors and 360-degree imaging of StarGuide are anticipated to enhance precision health and theranostics capabilities in nuclear medicine.

Companies operating in the radiopharmaceutical theranostics market are also focusing on the development of theranostics for cancer treatment. Theranostic approaches aim to provide targeted therapies and diagnostic solutions for rare diseases, particularly for patients with limited treatment options such as cancer. In November 2023, GE HealthCare Technologies Inc. launched theranostic solutions for cancer, marking a significant stride in precision medicine. Theranostics utilizes therapeutic agents in conjunction with imaging technology to identify and target cancer cells for destruction.

In March 2023, Radiopharm Theranostics, an Australia-based biotechnology company, acquired Pharma15 Corporation for $4 million. This strategic move positions Radiopharm to explore next-generation radiopharmaceuticals for prostate cancer treatment, surpassing PSMA-based therapies, and advancing innovative solutions for patients. Pharma15 Corporation, a US-based pharmaceutical company, specializes in radio-immuno-theranostics platforms and pharmaceutical products' development, aligning with Radiopharm's focus on advancing radiopharmaceutical products.
