Proton beam therapy is going through an interesting period right now as the unprecedented
demand of proton therapy for the treatment of cancer has set the stage for the market to
move ahead at a rapid pace. Proton therapy is a type of particle therapy which is used to treat
cancer patients by means of proton beams irradiation. The main advantage of proton therapy is
that while destroying the target malignant cells, it causes minimal damage to the surrounding
cells. Proton therapy uses the ionization technique to inhibit cell proliferation. Protons move
slowly through the body and interact with electrons and discharge energy. At a cost of US$ 125
Million, and sometimes much more, todays centers usually fill a city block. Building and
equipping a facility carries financial and logistical challenges that dwarf nearly any other
capital project. Even health care systems with deep pockets might not have sufficient land
available, particularly in urban areas.
By 2018, the number of sites providing proton therapy in the US is expected to cross 25. Still,
industry experts believe that players will miss out on a majority of cancer patients who can
benefit with proton therapy, overlooking a huge multi Billion dollar potential market. In Unites
States the numbers of patients treated with Proton Therapy is very low whereas; the potential
candidates for proton therapy are in Millions. IBA dominates the proton therapy market in
United States while in Japan Mitsubishi is the leading player. However other players like
Varian, Mevion, Hitachi etc. have also started to make their presence felt in the market. The
increased demand for proton therapy has motivated many prominent cancer centers in the
world to provide proton therapy treatment. The number of proton therapy centers worldwide
is anticipated to increase year on year with an ever-increasing number of patients.
