Cancer is among one of the leading causes of death around the globe; namely, in 2018, there were a total estimated 18.1 million new cases worldwide. The International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) projects that one-in-five men and one-in-six women will develop cancer over their lifetime. The agency also suggests that the rising number of cancer cases is correlated to a growing and aging population, in combination with exposure to risk factors associated with social and economic development. The most common types of cancer are lung, breast, and colorectal. The concern over the growing number of patients diagnosed with cancer is causing a demand for effective treatments to rise. As a result, biotechnology companies are developing various new treatments, drugs, and therapies to decelerate or eradicate cancer. According to data compiled by GBI Research, the global oncology market revenue is expected to grow to USD 241 Billion in 2023 from USD 118.6 Billion in 2016. It is also expected to grow at a CAGR of 10.66%. The oncology pipeline is large and very diverse, containing over 7,000 different products. However, the number of cases is still rising, which is responsible for the growing demand for new remedies.
Throughout the process of cancer treatments, patients suffer from symptoms associated with cancer itself or the therapy. Common side effects include vomiting, inflammation, and pain, but companies involved in the oncology and immunotherapy industry have developed numerous palliative medications to aid with the symptoms. The medications most commonly used include analgesics, antiemetics, antidepressants, and steroids. Other variations of treatments, such as chemotherapy or radiotherapy, are intended to slow or control the spread of cancer rather than treating the associated symptoms or curing cancer itself. “Today new avenues for cancer diagnostics and therapeutics present themselves. The choices include specific diagnostics, such as the rapidly evolving use of liquid biopsies that analyze cells and molecules spawned by the tumor and found in bodily fluids such as blood or urine, a more focused analysis of non-responders, the financial implications of future therapies, and an advocacy for a return to basic scientific research. The result of exploring these options will be a wider range of treatment choices for oncologists and a more positive outcome for patients,” said Steve Brozak, President of WBB Securities, LLC, an investment bank and research firm that specializes in the biotechnology, specialty pharmaceutical and medical device sectors.
