NEW YORK, May 4, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- OpportunityAnalyzer: Bladder Cancer - Opportunity Analysis and Forecasts to 2017

Summary

The bladder cancer market has remained largely unchanged in the past 10-20 years. However, significant expansion is expected starting in 2016, with the introduction of several new therapies that are projected to fuel market growth. In addition, bladder cancer has a robust early-stage pipeline that will contribute to market growth beyond the forecast period of 2012-2017. Currently, the bladder cancer market is dominated by generic chemotherapy and immunotherapy. Though initially effective, toxicity and lack of clinical efficacy in improving overall survival have left the door open for more tolerable and effective drugs to be developed. In the past, bladder cancer has not been an area of focus for pharmaceutical companies, but that is rapidly changing as more companies focus on the bladder cancer market, recognizing the high level of unmet need and relatively clear regulatory path. During the forecast period, the market landscape will begin to change dramatically with the introduction of targeted immunotherapies. These drugs will provide much-needed alternatives to bladder cancer patients who have not benefitted from traditional treatments.

Highlights

Key Questions Answered

- The bladder cancer market is poised to undergo rapid expansion during the forecast period and beyond. What are the main drivers of this expansion? What are the main barriers that could dampen this expansion?
- The bladder cancer market is plagued by the presence of high unmet needs not addressed by current treatments. What are the main unmet needs in this market? Will the drugs under development fulfil the unmet needs of the bladder cancer market?
- The current bladder cancer market is highly generic. How will the introduction of targeted immunotherapies, including the much-anticipated PD-1/PD-L1 class of immune checkpoint inhibitors, change the market landscape?

Key Findings

- The main driver of the rapid expansion of the bladder market will be the launch of several highly anticipated drugs into the market starting in 2016.
- The second largest driver will be the forecast increase in number of incident cases in bladder cancer.
- To gain approval, it is essential for companies to demonstrate efficacy in delaying recurrence, but not necessarily improvement in overall survival. Thus, the bar for approval in bladder cancer is low.
- In the future, companies will have to differentiate their drugs from others in the same class in order to successfully compete for patient share.
- The number of pipeline agents being developed by small to mid-sized companies represents an opportunity for large pharma to enter this highly lucrative market through licensing and marketing partnerships.
