Key Market Drivers

Persistent High Disease Burden Worldwide

Stomach (gastric) cancer continues to pose a serious global health threat. The World Health Organization reports approximately 1 million new cases annually, with nearly 800,000 deaths, ranking it among the top five causes of cancer-related mortality. Although incidence rates have declined in many Western countries due to improved food preservation and H. pylori management, global case numbers remain stable due to rising trends in several Asian and Latin American nations. This high disease burden fuels sustained demand for advanced treatment options-from surgical procedures to chemotherapy, targeted agents, and emerging immunotherapies-for both localized and advanced-stage diseases. Governments are responding for instance, Japan and South Korea have implemented national screening programs that detect early-stage cancers in 50%-60% of patients, vastly improving outcomes. In lower-income regions, late diagnosis (with 5-year survival below 20%) underscores a continued need for treatment expansion.

In addition, the aging global population contributes to rising incidence: the UN projects that the number of individuals over age 65 will double by 2050, and since age is a primary risk factor, this will further increase the prevalence of stomach cancer. These factors combine to drive robust investment from public health agencies, cancer centers, and pharmaceutical companies in treatment development, including supportive therapies and advanced surgical techniques.

Key Market Challenges

Late Diagnosis in Low-Resource Settings

In many regions without national screening programs, stomach cancer is still detected late, when curative options are limited. Globally, less than 10% of cases are diagnosed at Stage I outside East Asia, leading to 5-year survival rates below 20%. The lack of affordable diagnostic infrastructure-including endoscopy, imaging, and molecular profiling-limits access, even in countries with high disease burden. Additionally, stigma and low public awareness hinder early presentation. During the COVID-19 pandemic, diagnoses fell by 40% in South Asia, exacerbating the problem. Even in nations with existing screening systems, rural or lower-income populations may face barriers to care-amplifying health inequities.

Addressing this requires investment in lower-cost but high-impact diagnostic methods (e.g., breath tests, tele-endoscopy), public awareness programs, and distributed diagnostic services. Without improving early detection, treatment advances may reach only a minority of patients, limiting overall population health impact.

Key Market Trends

Immunotherapy as a Standard of Care

Immunotherapy is rapidly emerging as a transformative modality in gastric cancer treatment. While early trials showed modest results, recent Phase III studies have demonstrated median overall survival extending beyond 12 months when combining immunotherapy with chemotherapy in first-line advanced disease. Pembrolizumab and nivolumab are now commonly employed in frontline regimens in many countries.

In parallel, biomarkers like PD-L1 combining positive score (CPS) and tumor mutational burden are being integrated into routine diagnostic panels, guiding patient selection. Major healthcare systems-including the U.S. Medicare program-have approved reimbursement for PD-L1 testing in gastric cancer. Japan and South Korea have also revised clinical guidelines to recommend immunotherapy in HER2-negative, PD-L1-positive cases within the past year. With over 10 ongoing Phase III trials exploring immunotherapy in perioperative or second-line settings, its use is expected to become further standardized. As the technology matures, research is also exploring combinations with vaccines, oncolytic viruses, and adoptive cell therapies, opening new frontiers in personalized cancer care.
