Abundance of Clinical Data

The abundance of clinical data for actinic keratosis treatment is estimated to aid in the development of novel medications and therapies. The vast amount of clinical data available is being leveraged to understand and develop new and innovative options for effective treatment of actinic keratosis in different patients. Availability of data regarding the treatment is also enabling dermatologists and surgeons to develop customized combination therapies for patients

Combination Therapy

Dermatologists are increasingly adopting a combination of various methods for effectively treating actinic keratosis in patients. The combination of cryotherapy and fluorouracil cream exhibit a success rate of approximately 90% for the treatment of multiple actinic keratosis lesions. The combination of the two treatment offers a variety of benefits such as convenience of application and administration, lower irritability, and enhanced absorption of fluorouracil cream. Clinical trials have suggested enhanced outcome while using the combined therapy compared to the use of cryotherapy and fluorouracil cream individually.

However, lack of skilled worker is anticipated to be a key restraint for the growth of actinic keratosis treatment market during forecast period. The actinic keratosis treatment by photodynamic therapy, cryotherapy or chemical peel requires skilled plastic surgeons. According to the WHO, it is expected to witness a shortage of 12.9 million healthcare workers by 2035 across the globe. The demand for plastic surgery has increased globally whereas the number of plastic surgeons has declined. Besides, the treatment-seeking rate of actinic keratosis is relatively low in developing countries owing to its low awareness among the population.
