New Cancer Drugs Market Outlook
Today, improving cancer treatments is a priority for many new cancer drug developers, academic researchers, and funding bodies. This has led to the prosperity of innovative therapies and increased survival rates. However, there are types of cancers with massive unmet needs. New innovations will possibly add further to the challenges and complexities within drug development to meet the increased need for precision medicine.
Industry Challenges
Improving initial detection: For most human diseases, prevention is usually preferable to finding a cure, both to improve the chances of an efficacious treatment and as the less expensive approach. In cancer, early tumor detection with non-invasive imaging such as MRI, CT, and PET scans– is proving increasingly promising for discriminating between aggressive and indolent tumors. However, these are expensive interventions that also increase an individual’s exposure to radiation and can result in a high false-positive rate.
Financial troubles: The current medical insurance systems in the US, provides no financial support for companies trying to refine prevention strategies such as cancer-preventing vaccines, a strategy that has proven fruitful for human papillomaviruses.
