Immune Checkpoint Inhibitors: A New Hope for Cancer Patients

Published: September 2015


Roots Analysis has announced the addition of “Immune Checkpoint Inhibitors Market (2nd edition), 2015-2025” report to its portfolio. The study provides a comprehensive analysis of the current market landscape and future outlook of the growing pipeline of Immune Checkpoint Inhibitors (ICIs).

Rupali Verma, the principal analyst, said, “The immuno-oncology market encompasses a myriad of immune checkpoint targeting drugs for a broad range of cancer indications. Specifically, CTLA-4 inhibitors were pioneers in this segment. Yervoy was the only immunotherapeutic commercially available until other classes stepped in. The recent approval of anti PD-1 drugs and emergence of anti PD-L1 drugs has provided a significant boost. In addition, there are several novel checkpoint inhibitors (e.g. IDO, LAG-3, CD70, OX40, CD40, GITR, TIM-3, CD137/4-1BB, KIR, TDO, VISTA, CS1, NKG2A, GARP, ICOS) which are expected to gain traction in the future.”

Verma further stated, “The market is currently characterized by the presence of three marketed drugs and 34 drugs in clinical development.

  • BMS, with ten ICIs, is the leading player followed by other giants including AstraZeneca, Merck, Pfizer, Roche, GSK, Novartis and Amgen.
  • Several molecules are being tested in combination with other drug classes; Jan 2014-May 2015 saw over 40 such collaborations.”

Amongst other things, the report covers:

  • Current market outlook, along with key drivers and restraints, likely to influence future growth.
  • Detailed analysis of the active/planned clinical studies evaluating phase II/III/marketed ICIs.
  • Partnering activities which are likely to unfold as the market matures.
