ATC accounts for less than 2% of all thyroid cancers but contributes significantly to thyroid-cancer-related mortality. The market is seeing a shift toward precision oncology approaches, including therapies targeting BRAF mutations, MEK pathways, immune checkpoints, and tumor-agnostic biomarkers. Increased availability of genomic testing, improved supportive care, and growing clinical trial activity further support the expansion of treatment options.

Key Market Highlights
• 2024 Market Size: USD 520 million
• 2034 Forecast: USD 1.04 billion
• CAGR (2025-2034): 7.2%
