As per the report, the growing prevalence of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) and poor management of GERD are prime factors driving the growth of Barrette’s esophagus treatment market. Barrett’s esophagus is a serious complication chronic of gastroesophageal reflux disease, and its high prevalence is leaving a significant economic impact on the global healthcare system. According to US Surveillance Epidemiology and End Results (SEER), 10% of GERD patients develop Barrett’s esophagus. The low treatment rate for GERD is another major factor leading to the increased prevalence of Barrett’s esophagus. Risk factors for the development of Barrett’s disease also include obesity and tobacco smoking, but GERD is the major risk factor.
Costs due to poorly treated GERD with Barrett’s esophagus represent a substantial burden for the healthcare systems. For instance, according to a study conducted by Universitat de Barcelona and the University of Naples Italy, the estimated cost for the healthcare systems for the population with poorly treated GERD with Barrett’s esophagus was found to be €18 million in Spain, € 12 million in Germany and € 7 million in Germany, in 2015.
Furthermore, improving diagnosis rates for Barrett’s esophagus is expected to drive the market for Barrett’s esophagus over the forecast period. A study from Mayo clinic suggests that the concurrent increase number of endoscopies performed annually has improved the ability to diagnose Barrett’s esophagus.

Barrett's esophagus is two to three times more common in men than in women.

Endoscopic ablation therapies use different techniques to destroy dysplasia – abnormal cells developed in the esophagus. Photodynamic therapy uses light-activated chemical and laser to destroy precancerous cells in the esophagus.
