Drivers

• Increasing Demand of Radiation Therapy

The radiation therapy is projected to show steady growth during the forecast period due to the growing number of advanced melanoma cases and the increasing use of radiation as an adjuvant therapy post-surgery. Radiation therapy is often used as a primary treatment. It is only administered to stage 4 patients who cannot be treated with surgery.

• Increase in Skin Cancer

According to records of WHO, about 132,000 cases of skin cancer occur each year. Additionally, a 10% reduction in ozone levels is projected to lead to an increase of 4,500 skin cancer cases worldwide. The incidence of skin allergies, melanoma, and other skin cancers in developing countries is more, that serves as an opportunity for many drug companies to gain a greater share in these regions. This is estimated to increase the demand for these drugs during the forecast period.

Opportunities

• Growing Regulatory Approvals By Authorizations

The high emphasis and increasing investment in highly developing efficient treatment options are most likely to significantly impact the market growth. Treatment recommendations depend on several factors, and the increasing number of regulatory approvals has considerably impacted the market growth. For instance, in 2021, Binimetinib, Braftovi, Aldesleukin, Cobimetinib Fumarate, Dabrafenib Mesylate, Cotellic were some of the approved drugs that are used for the treatment of cancer by FDA. The significance of major key players on introducing several innovative treatment options and drugs will support the market growth in the upcoming years.   

• Development of new Biologics

The major market players in the U.S., Europe, and Asia Pacific are focusing on developing several new biologics for the treatment of melanoma. For instance, in March 2017, Take a Novel Challenge for Drug Discovery (TaNeDS) was introduced by Daiichi Sankyo Company Limited, a collaborative project aimed at facilitating new drug development through various collaborations. In addition to this, it has a strategic research partnership with AgonOX, Inc. to explore innovative immunotherapy treatments for the market.

 Restraints/Challenges

• Unavailability of Appropriate Treatments

To treat many different types of cancers, there are times when all treatments are not available, particularly in underdeveloped countries. Severe patients need to be treated with many advanced techniques, but these are sometimes unavailable in the hospitals and clinics. Therefore, it impedes the market growth.

• Increasing Rate of Patent Expiration Drugs

There are several drugs that lose expiry and it takes much time to get back the patent. Branded drugs are anticipated to lose their market share during the forecast period because of the patent expiration of notable brands such as Yervoy and Imlygic. Imlygic is projected to lose its patent protection in 2021, which will result in reduced revenue for Amgen, Inc. Likewise, Yervoy is estimated to lose its patent exclusivity in the U.S. in 2022 and Europe in 2020.
