Cancer biologics Global Market Report 2024

The cancer biologics market size has grown rapidly in recent years. It will grow from $106.2 billion in 2023 to $117.03 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 10.2%. The growth observed in the historical period can be attributed to several key factors. These include the escalating incidence of cancer cases worldwide, a heightened awareness and understanding of the benefits of cancer biologics among healthcare professionals and patients, advancements leading to improved efficacy and safety profiles of these biologics, regulatory approvals for new cancer biologics expanding treatment options, and a growing acknowledgment and utilization of combination therapies for cancer treatment. These elements collectively contributed to the growth and acceptance of cancer biologics, fostering their increased adoption in cancer care and treatment protocols.

The cancer biologics market size is expected to see rapidly grown in the next few years. It will grow to $168.75 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 9.6%. The anticipated growth in the forthcoming period can be attributed to several contributing factors. These include the expansion of indications for existing cancer biologics, the development and utilization of combination therapies to enhance treatment effectiveness, the growing utilization of real-world evidence to inform treatment decisions, and advancements in gene and cell therapies, offering promising avenues in cancer care.

The upward trend in chronic disease prevalence stands as a key driver in propelling the growth of the cancer biologics market. Chronic diseases, persisting over extended periods, often affect people's health and wellbeing, with cancer being one of the most prevalent chronic conditions. Notably, common cancers include breast, lung, prostate, colon, rectum, skin melanoma, bladder, non-Hodgkin lymphoma, kidney, endometrial, leukemia, pancreatic, thyroid, and liver cancers. By January 2023, the National Center for Biotechnology Information projects a significant surge in the number of individuals aged 50 years and older experiencing chronic illnesses, expected to reach 142.66 million by 2050 in the United States, up from 71.522 million in 2020. This escalation in chronic disease prevalence is poised to steer the cancer biologics market's growth trajectory in the foreseeable future.

The upsurge in investments directed towards cancer research is predicted to act as a catalyst in driving the expansion of the cancer biologics market. Investments in cancer research denote financial backing channeled towards scientific endeavors aimed at comprehensively understanding, preventing, diagnosing, and treating cancer. Heightened funding in this domain empowers pharmaceutical and biotechnology entities to delve into pioneering discoveries, rigorous testing, and development of novel cancer biologics, including drug target identification and potential candidate synthesis. For instance, in March 2022, the Australian-based government agency, the Department of Health and Aged Care, allocated $893.5 million to bolster cancer services and outcomes. Part of this investment, around $329.4 million, supports the introduction of new cancer medications like Trodelvy, Lynparza, and Mylotarg, designed for various cancer types, benefiting a substantial number of patients annually. Consequently, increased investment in cancer research is expected to propel the growth of the cancer biologics market moving forward. Entities within the cancer biologics market are actively engaged in developing predictive biomarkers, aiding physicians in treatment decisions by leveraging physiological indicators for performance prediction. Predictive biomarkers meticulously examine tumor growth in patients by scrutinizing major causative factors, given the distinct etiology of cancer among individuals. These biomarkers serve not only in early cancer detection but also in determining the most cost-effective treatment approaches, especially concerning biologics rooted in gene therapy.

Major players in the cancer biologics market are intensively focused on crafting cancer biosimilars, exemplified by ONTRUZAN, to secure a competitive edge. ONTRUZAN, a biosimilar drug, is specifically formulated to address various cancer forms, encompassing breast and gastric cancer treatments. In November 2022, Organon, a Canada-based women's health firm, launched ONTRUZAN, a Herceptin biosimilar, broadening the therapeutic options for Canadian adults confronting early breast cancer (EBC), metastatic breast cancer (MBC), and metastatic gastric cancer (MGC). This strategic inclusion of biosimilars into breast and gastric cancer treatments aims to expand access to cost-effective medications, thereby fostering avenues for continual reinvestment in healthcare system innovations.

In November 2022, Biocon Biologics Ltd., an esteemed biopharmaceutical company based in India, successfully acquired the global biosimilars business situated in North America from Viatris Inc., a prominent global pharmaceutical and healthcare corporation. The specific financial details of the transaction remain undisclosed. This strategic acquisition represents Biocon's strategic move to strengthen its position within the global biosimilars market, enabling the company to provide comprehensive end-to-end solutions to a wide spectrum of patients and customers worldwide. Viatris Inc., recognized as a US-based global pharmaceutical and healthcare corporation, has specialized expertise in cancer biologics, and this acquisition is expected to augment Biocon's capabilities and further its reach in the biosimilars domain, reinforcing its commitment to advancing healthcare solutions across the globe.
