In 2023, the number of stem cell transplantation procedures performed in Japan was approximately 6.20 thousand. From 2024 onward, the forecast data indicates a steady growth in the number of these procedures. The year-on-year growth rates are modest, with an increase of 0.96% in 2025 and similarly slight upward trends in subsequent years, reaching approximately 6.47 thousand by 2028. The compound annual growth rate (CAGR) over the five-year forecast period stands at around 0.84%, indicating a cautious but continuous expansion in the number of procedures performed.

Future trends to watch for include:

Advancements in stem cell technology which may accelerate growth in transplantation numbers.
Government policies and funding for healthcare that could impact the frequency of these procedures.
Development of alternative therapies which may either complement or compete with stem cell transplantation.
Changes in population demographics in Japan which might influence the demand for stem cell treatments.
