Immuno Oncology Assays Market Dynamics
Drivers: Rising incidence of cancer and growing adoption of targeted therapies
Cancer is a complex disease that develops through the multi-stage carcinogenesis process involving multiple molecular pathway events. Thus, various hurdles are associated with cancer diagnosis, prognosis, and therapy. In this regard, due to the complex nature of cancer, a single marker is not helpful. Moreover, in terms of its molecular profile, each cancer is different from other cancer types. Hence, the use of immuno-oncology assays has been particularly significant in understanding cancer signatures and developing customized therapies.
Globally, the prevalence of cancer has increased significantly over the last few years. Cancer, which has become the leading cause of death globally, accounted for 9.6 million deaths in 2018. According to GLOBOCAN, the number of cancer cases will rise to approximately 30 million by 2040 from 18 million in 2018. More than 60% of new cancer cases occur in Africa, Asia, and Central and South America; 70% of global cancer deaths also occur in these regions. Thus, the growth in the incidence and prevalence of cancer has resulted in a need to conduct extensive research for diagnosis and treatment; immuno-oncology assays form an important part of this research.
Opportunities: Emerging markets offer lucrative opportunities
Emerging economies such as China, India, South Korea, Brazil, and Mexico offer significant growth opportunities to major market players. This can be attributed to their low regulatory barriers, improvements in healthcare infrastructure, growing patient population, and rising healthcare expenditure. The regulatory policies in the Asia Pacific are more adaptive and business-friendly than those in developed countries. This, along with the increasing competition in mature markets, has drawn key players in the immuno-oncology assays market to focus on emerging countries.
Restraints: Requirement of high capital investments and low cost-benefit ratio
Significant capital investments are required for the discovery, development, and validation of biomarkers. Additionally, due to the high drug attrition in clinical trials (with almost 30% of drugs failing in Phase III), diagnostic manufacturers are exposed to significant financial challenges. To gain approval for in vitro diagnostics (IVD) from regulators, manufacturers need successful Phase III clinical trials, which depend on well-validated biomarker tests. Huge investments are required to run clinical trials and address stringent regulatory requirements, which not only affect the ability of small companies to develop biomarkers but also severely affect innovation. Hence, along with the high amount of capital investments, the low cost-benefit ratio is hindering the growth of the immuno-oncology assays market for biomarker detection.
