Veterinary oncology is a branch of veterinary medicine that deals with cancer diagnosis, treatment, and prevention in animals. It entails the care of cancer in different animal species, such as dogs, cats, horses, and other pets.

Veterinary Oncology Market Trends

  • Cancer is the leading cause of death in pets after middle age. Consequently, due to the higher incidence of cancer in animals like dogs, demand for therapy is expected to increase in future years.
  • For example, based on a study conducted by Aging and Cancer in February 2022, it is estimated that 1 out of every 4 dogs develops cancer during their lifetime. Hence, with the increasing incidence of cancer among animals, there is expected to be a corresponding upsurge in demand for sophisticated and effective cancer therapeutics, leading to expected growth in the market.

However, high cost of cancer treatment and procedures and adverse effects of drugs may hamper the market growth to certain extent.
