by

The global Tumor Treating Fields Market is estimated to be valued at US$ 333.8 Mn in 2023 and is expected to exhibit a CAGR of 15% over the forecast period 2023-2030, as highlighted in a new report published by Coherent Market Insights.

Market Overview:
Tumor treating fields are alternating electric fields designed to disrupt cell division. These fields interfere with mitosis and cytokinesis during mitosis, resulting in non-viable tumor cells or cell death. Tumor treating fields target rapidly dividing cells, such as cancer cells.

Market key trends:
One of the key trends in the tumor treating fields market is the increasing adoption of optic fibers based tumor treating fields devices. Optic fiber technology delivers TTFields therapy via non-invasive transducer arrays placed on the patient’s skin. Optic fibers provide advantages such improved patient comfort and mobility compared to older transducer arrays. Fiber-optic transducer arrays are lighter in weight, more flexible, and have a low-profile design. Optic fiber based tumor treating fields devices offer a personalized treatment and enhanced quality of life for cancer patients.
