Warts Therapeutics Market Developments and Forecast by 2028

The warts therapeutics market was valued US$ 1,829.54 million in 2021, it is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 3.4% from 2021 to 2028.

The growth of the warts therapeutics market is attributed to rising prevalence of human papillomavirus infections and recurrence of genital warts, and development of new products. However, poor diagnostics scenario in low-income countries restrains the market growth. Warts are skin growth caused by the human papillomaviruses (HPV). There are more than 60 types of HPVs, and several of these tend to cause warts on the skin. Although topical treatments could probably resolve the issue of warts in a few weeks with minimal side effects, they may not be effective all the time. Hence, cryotherapy with liquid nitrogen is a suitable option for treatment, where cure rate is 60–90% and less than 10–20% recurrence rate.

In the US, the demand for warts treatment procedures has reduced due to the shift in focus on COVID-19. The pandemic has been causing havoc in the global supply chains, consumer markets, and economies as a whole. As a result of the measures implemented by governments around the world have negatively impacted the warts therapeutics market growth.

Market Insights

Rising Prevalence of Human Papillomavirus Infections and Recurrence of Genital Warts Fuel Warts Therapeutics Market Growth

Warts are caused by various strains of human papillomaviruses (HPV), and different strains cause warts in different parts of the body. Healthy persons coming in contact with warts can acquire the infection. As per the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), in 2018, ~20% of the population, i.e., ~42.5 million people, in the US had sexually transmitted infections (STIs). In addition, before HPV vaccination, genital warts affected ~340,000–360,000 women and men in the US annually. Moreover, the recurrence rate for genital warts is high. As per the National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI), ~30% of total warts cases globally are expected to regress within the first four months of infection. In addition, HPV infections lead to cervical cancer, and cervical cancer is the fourth most common cancer among women globally. As per the World Health Organization (WHO), ~570,000 new cases of cervical cancer recorded in 2018 with high prevalence in low-income countries. Hence, an increase in the prevalence of HPV infections, leading to a rise in wart cases, and the high recurrence rate of warts are driving the wart therapeutics market growth.
