Key Market Trends

Immunotherapy Expected to Remain a Significant Revenue Source For Leading Players Due to Label Expansions Despite Approaching Patent Expiry.

Immunotherapy refers to the fighting cancer cells by taking advantage of the human immune system. There are several immunotherapy drugs available for colorectal cancer worldwide. These therapeutics include targeted antibodies and checkpoint inhibitors.

Furthermore, growing R&D on combination therapy coupled with rising awareness on cancer therapeutics and advantages of immunotherapy anticipated fueling the segment growth over the forecast period.
For instance, In August 2018, United States Food and Drug Administration approved combination of immunotherapeutic drugs ipilimumab (Yervoy) and nivolumab (Opdivo) for the treatment of some patients with metastatic colorectal cancer who have been treated previously with standard chemotherapy drugs.
Moreover, the expansion of therapeutic applications of immunotherapeutic agents to colorectal cancer is projected to further fuel the market growth.
