Ependymoma is a rare type of brain tumour called a glioma. It starts from ependymal cells in the brain or spinal cord. Ependymomas can develop in children and adults. They are soft, grayish, or red tumors which may contain cysts or mineral calcifications. Symptoms of ependymomas depend on whether the tumor is in the brain or the spinal cord. These tumors are divided into four major types, subependymoma, myxopapillary ependymoma, anaplastic ependymoma and classic ependymomas. Symptoms of an ependymoma are related to the location and size of the tumor. In infants, increased head size may be one of the first symptoms. Irritability, sleeplessness, and vomiting may develop as the tumor grows. In older children and adults, nausea, vomiting, and headache are the most common symptoms

Market Dynamics

Key players operating in the global ependymoma drug market are focusing on increasing research and development for ependymoma which is expected to drive the market growth during the forecast period. For instance, in April 2022, Pediatric Brain Tumor Consortium initiated Phase 2 Study of Intraventricular Omburtamab-based Radioimmunotherapy for Pediatric Patients with Recurrent Medulloblastoma and Ependymoma. The study is estimated to be completed in July 30, 2030.  Moreover, increasing research funding for ependymoma is expected to propel growth of the global ependymoma drug market over the forecast period. For instance, in November 2021, a team of scientists led by researchers at the Yale School of Public Health had received a US $13 million grant to investigate the molecular evolution of lower grade gliomas, slow growing but malignant brain tumors that primarily affect young adults.
