In the current decade, oncology has been one of the most important growth segments among the pharmaceutical markets with a major focus on targeted agents (drug treatments developed to preferentially target those signaling pathways that are disregulated in tumors). Most innovation in oncology over the past 10 years has been driven by scientific advances, particularly in genomics, transcriptomics and proteomics.

In the current environment, the successful oncology players of the future will be those that can anticipate protocol evolution and design the most relevant clinical trials. In recent years, biotech companies have fuelled innovation in oncology more than ever before. Partnering with biotech companies is a key (but expensive) source of innovation for many pharma companies as approximately 75% of phase II, III and pre-registration innovative drugs are of biotech origin.

At $47.7bn, cancer is one of the largest, fastest growing markets in the pharmaceutical industry. However, pricing risk remains the key investment concern in oncology. The key concern, however, is not price erosion driven by competitive forces, but price cuts imposed by payors irrespective of the fact that such unilateral price cuts by payors have never occurred in any of the major developed markets and would surely jeopardize the premise on which the entire biopharmaceutical industry has been built.

Key Market Issues
• FDA approves Cervarix for cervical cancer
In October 2009, FDA approved GSK’s Cervarix for the prevention of pre-cancerous lesions caused by human papillomavirus (HPV) type 16 & 18 in women aged 10-25 years. Cervarix’s inclusion in children’s vaccine program is a major step towards securing reimbursement. Cervarix, expected to launch by the end of 2009, faces direct competition from Merck’s Gardasil and will help to reduce the incidence of cervical cancer in future.
• Merck’s Gardasil adds US indication of genital warts for boys and men On 16th October 2009, Gardasil’s US label was extended to include its use in both men and boys aged 9-26 years of age. The pivotal trial results showed an efficacy of 90.4% while preventing external genital lesions of HPV types 6/11/16/18. In addition, Merck also planned to extend its vaccine patient assistance program providing free Gardasil to 19-26 year old uninsured males meeting eligibility criteria but unable to afford the vaccine.

Key findings from this report
• In 2008, antineoplastic mAbs delivered huge sales of $13.6bn with a market share of 28.6% of total sales. The key antineoplastic mAbs which contributed to the higher market share of this class in 2008 were MabThera (11.0%), Avastin (10.3%), Herceptin (9.7%) and Erbitux (3.4%). Forecast sales of the total antineoplastics market are estimated at $65.2bn in 2014.
• Roche is the global market leader in cancer, holding the highest market share of 29.2% ($14.0bn sales) in 2008 based on sales from (MabThera, Avastin, Herceptin, Tarceva and Xeloda). Roche’s strength in the cancer market has been bolstered by its acquisition of Genentech and purchase of majority stakes in Chugai, which has provided additional breadth to its portfolio.
• Eli Lilly’s acquisition of ImClone will increase the former’s flow of high-quality, innovative new therapies. The transaction will immediately enable Eli Lilly to offer physicians and their patients a complementary portfolio of leading oncolytic agents and targeted therapies including Gemzar, Alimta and Erbitux.
