Human papillomavirus (HPV) infections are a primary risk factor for cervical cancer. The increasing prevalence of HPV infections globally directly correlates with higher incidences of cervical cancer. For instance, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, over 90% of cervical cancer cases are linked to HPV infection. Annually in the U.S., about 200,000 women are diagnosed with cervical precancer, while approximately 11,100 cases of cervical cancer are caused by HPV.
Tragically, around 4,000 women lose their lives to cervical cancer each year. Therefore, as the number of HPV infections rises, so does the demand for effective treatments for HPV-related cervical cancers.
There has been a notable increase in research and development funding aimed at cancer treatments, including cervical cancer. This funding supports the development of innovative therapies, novel drug delivery systems, diagnostic tools, and preventive measures. Advances in treatment options and technologies attract investments from pharmaceutical companies and research institutions, driving market expansion.
