Abstract Table of Contents Related Reports

This comprehensive report is designed to present a state-of-the-art view of chemotherapy approaches to the treatment of cancer and an assessment of the critical parameters of drug discovery and development that may lead to the introduction of new oncology drugs with great therapeutic and market potential over the next decade. The oncology market is currently the fastest growing in the pharmaceutical industry, driven by the explosion of potential therapeutic targets revealed by the molecular genetic assessments of cancer biology and fuelled by the magnitude of the disease worldwide, which shows every indication of increased incidence and sustained mortality rates over the next decade. Currently, there are 25 million people afflicted with cancer worldwide, and the World Health Organization (WHO) predicts that cancer rates may increase by 50% from 10 million cases in 2000 to 15 million cases in 2015. Moreover, the Association for International Cancer Research (AICR) estimates that by 2020, there will be 10 million deaths from cancer. Even in developed nations, approximately 50% of patients diagnosed with cancer will eventually die of this disease. The challenges are great, but the world of molecular medicine and biopharmaceuticals has presented great opportunities to discover and develop new pharmacological approaches with prospects for greater therapeutic efficacy and more promising clinical outcome.

In this report, Chemotherapy Market Insights, 2006-2016: A Critical Analysis of CancerResearch, Treatments, Pipelines, and Commercial Opportunities, the reader will be presented with an expert perspective on oncology therapeutics, drug development, and commercial opportunities within the field. The introductory chapter is designed to provide a global perspective on the many facets of cancer that will affect the discovery, development and marketing of oncology pharmaceuticals over the next decade. Among the critical disease parameters are the global epidemiology of cancer, which includes current incidence, survival and mortality trends for the most common cancers worldwide. This assessment is designed to focus attention on the types of cancer that may be most appropriately targeted for treatment research and development based on these current global statistics.

These statistics also highlight the types of cancer that continue to be most refractory to current treatment approaches, suggesting areas for future research in drug discovery. Each of the many common cancers is assessed in this chapter with respect to its aetiology, pathophysiology, diagnosis, current treatment options, and clinical outcomes.

Objectives of the Report

The objectives of this report are to provide an in-depth assessment and analysis of the global cancer therapy market. Included in this study are critical analyses of key therapeutic areas, epidemiological, aetiological, and healthcare data, pipeline programs, and innovating companies and products. It is hoped that the reader will benefit from critical review, market forecasts, pooled knowledge of recent industrial activities and events, and from analytical discourse, which is intended to stimulate growth and create new market opportunities.
