The global mesna (mesnex) market is anticipated to grow at a significant CAGR during the forecast period (2021-2027). The major factors that are expected to boost the market growth include an increase in incidences of cancer, coupled with the rising practices of chemotherapy, which has increased the demand for mesna. In 2018, cases of cancer were estimated to be 1,735,350 and this figure is estimated to grow by 3% every year. As a result, the chemotherapy is going through a phase of evolution and rapid progress. Ongoing clinical research for use in new treatment such as hemorrhagic cystitis is another factor that is accelerating the growth of the market along with increasing approvals by the FDA for new therapies, which are expected to open new doors for mesna. 

Mesnex is sold by the trade name mesna. It is a thiol compound that oxidizes rapidly in plasma to mesna disulfide, it is hydrophilic, remains in the intravascular compartment, and is rapidly thrown by the kidneys. Mesna is a drug used for the prevention of ifosfamide-induced hemorrhagic cystitis and high-dose cyclophosphamide-induced hemorrhagic cystitis. It is also prescribed after the chemotherapy to reduce the undesired side effects of certain chemotherapy drugs. It is either injected through the vein or given as a pill by mouth. Mesna is either consumed as a tablet or injected into the veins in a dosage equal to 40% of the ifosfamide dose at two and six hours after each dose of ifosfamide as a prophylactic agent to reduce the incidence of ifosfamide-induced hemorrhagic cystitis in conjunction with standard antineoplastic therapy. The daily dose of mesna is equal to 100% of the ifosfamide dose.
