Increasing prevalence of cancer

The global burden of cancer continues to grow at an alarming rate. As per the estimates of World Health Organization, the worldwide incidence of cancer rose to 18.1 million new cases in 2018 with 9.6 million cancer deaths. If urgent actions are not taken, the global cancer burden is expected to rise to over 29 million new cancer cases and 16 million cancer deaths by 2040.

The rising prevalence of cancer can be attributed to various factors like rapidly aging population across the world, increasing adoption of unhealthy lifestyle involving smoking, excessive alcohol consumption, and physical inactivity, environmental pollution, and prolonged exposure to carcinogens. Some of the most commonly occurring cancers worldwide are lung cancer, breast cancer, colorectal cancer, prostate cancer, and stomach cancer. Even though the healthcare systems are advancing in diagnosis and treatment of cancer, still a vast number of patients lack early detection leading to advanced stages at diagnosis and lower survival rates.

This increased cancer burden is expected to drive the demand for novel diagnostic and therapeutic approaches to improve outcomes for cancer patients. Exosomes are being extensively researched for their applications in liquid biopsy for non-invasive cancer diagnosis. Being secreted by all cell types including cancer cells, analysis of exosomes can provide valuable molecular insights about underlying pathology and help detect cancer at early stages when treatment options are most effective. Research studies have demonstrated exosomes potential as biomarkers for various cancers like ovarian cancer, lung cancer, and breast cancer. Their ability to capture real time molecular alterations in tumors make them promising alternatives to invasive tissue biopsies. Researchers are also exploring whether analysis of tumor derived exosomes cargo like DNA, RNA, and proteins could determine cancer progression and therapy response for personalized treatment decisions.

On therapeutic front, efforts are ongoing to develop exosome mediated drug delivery systems for enhanced targeting and treatment of cancer. Studies involving the modification of exosome membranes and loading them with anti-cancer drugs, immune stimulatory molecules, or toxins are paving way for novel exosome based anti-cancer therapies. With improved survival rates remaining a top priority for cancer patients and researchers, the growing disease burden is certain to boost investments and clinical adoption of exosome diagnostics and therapeutics in the coming years.
