Gastric cancer drugs encompass anti-cancer medications administered either orally in the form of pills or through injection into a vein via an IV line or central venous catheter. This form of treatment proves effective for cancers that have metastasized to organs beyond their origin, as these medications travel through the bloodstream, reaching all parts of the body.
The primary types of gastric cancer drugs include doxorubicin hydrochloride, sunitinib, docetaxel, mitomycin, fluorouracil, imatinib, and trastuzumab. Sunitinib functions as both a chemotherapeutic agent and a receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitor, employed in the treatment of renal cell carcinoma (RCC) and imatinib-resistant gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST). These drugs are administered via oral and parenteral routes and find application in hospitals, clinics, and other healthcare settings.
The gastric cancer drugs market research report is one of a series of new reports from The Business Research Company that provides gastric cancer drugs market statistics, including gastric cancer drugs industry global market size, regional shares, competitors with a gastric cancer drugs market share, detailed gastric cancer drugs market segments, market trends and opportunities, and any further data you may need to thrive in the gastric cancer drugs industry. This gastric cancer drugs market research report delivers a complete perspective of everything you need, with an in-depth analysis of the current and future scenario of the industry.
The gastric cancer drugs market size has grown rapidly in recent years. It will grow from $3.91 billion in 2023 to $4.41 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 12.8%. The growth observed in the historical period can be ascribed to the rise in pharmaceutical research and development (R&D) expenditure, augmented healthcare spending, robust economic growth in emerging markets, and the swift expansion of the elderly population.
The gastric cancer drugs market size is expected to see rapid growth in the next few years. It will grow to $6.92 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 11.9%. The anticipated growth in the forecast period can be ascribed to the increase in the incidence rate of gastric cancer, a robust pipeline of drugs, a surge in acquisitions and partnerships for drug development, a rise in healthcare expenditure, high potential in emerging economies, a growing geriatric population, and revised FDA regulations aimed at facilitating biologics drug development. Major trends expected in the forecast period include strategic collaborations and agreements to expand product portfolios, partnerships with other companies or government bodies to expedite the development of new drugs, an increase in the number of pipeline studies for the development of gastric cancer drugs, investments in AI solutions to reduce R&D costs, the development of next-generation biologics to enhance revenue and market share, and the use of CRISPR-Cas9 technology in new drug developments or for improved results in gastric cancer treatments.
The rising prevalence of obesity and an increasing number of smokers have contributed to a higher incidence of gastric cancer. Tobacco consumption and an unhealthy diet are identified as risk factors for stomach cancer. According to the American Institute for Cancer Research's 2020 estimates, approximately 27,600 cases of stomach cancer were projected to be diagnosed, with 16,980 in men and 10,620 in women. The growing number of gastric cancer cases is expected to fuel the expansion of the gastric cancer drugs market.
The expanding global aging population is anticipated to drive the future growth of the gastric cancer drug market. An aging population is characterized by a significant proportion of individuals aged 65 and above, resulting from increased life expectancy and reduced birth rates. This demographic shift necessitates tailored treatment options, including drugs, to accommodate the specific needs and tolerances of elderly patients who may have limited tolerance for certain cancer treatments such as surgery or chemotherapy. For example, as reported by The Print in August 2021, India's elderly population (aged 60 and above) is expected to reach 194 million by 2031, reflecting a 41% increase from 138 million in 2021, according to the National Statistical Office's Elderly in India 2021. Consequently, the gastric cancer drug market is poised for growth due to the expanding elderly population.
Numerous companies are employing combination therapies as a strategy to combat gastric cancer effectively. Combination therapies involve the simultaneous use of two or more drugs to treat a single disease, enhancing patient care. For instance, in January 2021, AstraZeneca PLC, a UK-based pharmaceutical and biotechnology company, announced the FDA approval of Enhertu (trastuzumab deruxtecan) in the US for treating adult patients with locally progressed or metastatic HER2-positive gastric or gastroesophageal junction (GEJ) adenocarcinomas. This therapy, combining trastuzumab with a fluoropyrimidine- and platinum-based chemotherapy, is administered to individuals facing advanced gastric cancer or GEJ adenocarcinoma who have previously undergone a trastuzumab-based regimen.
Major companies in the gastric cancer drugs market are introducing innovative medications such as Nivolumab (Opdivo) to maintain a competitive edge. Nivolumab is an immune checkpoint inhibitor belonging to the Programd death receptor-1 (PD-1) blockers class, used in cancer therapy. The incorporation of immune checkpoint inhibitors in gastric cancer treatment aligns with the broader effort to develop more targeted and effective therapies for the disease. For example, in April 2021, Bristol-Myers Squibb Company, a US-based biopharmaceutical company, received FDA approval for Opdivo (nivolumab) injection for the treatment of patients with advanced or metastatic gastric cancer, gastroesophageal junction cancer, and esophageal adenocarcinoma, irrespective of PD-L1 expression status.
In March 2021, Amgen Inc., a US-based biopharmaceutical company, completed the acquisition of Five Prime Therapeutics, Inc. for $1.9 billion. This strategic move by Amgen enhances its oncology product portfolio, assets for gastric cancer treatment, monoclonal antibody manufacturing capabilities, and drug development capabilities, particularly for biological drugs targeting advanced gastric or gastroesophageal junction (GEJ) cancer. Five Prime Therapeutics, Inc. is a clinical-stage biotechnology company focused on discovering and developing immuno-oncology protein therapeutics for cancer treatment.
