Oncology drugs include chemotherapy, hormone therapy, immunotherapy, and other drugs that are useful in the treatment of cancer. According to the CDC, 21.1 million adults were diagnosed with cancer in 2015, which drives the number of oncologic drugs in the market. Whereas in Latin America and the Caribbean about 1.1 million new cancer cases and 600,000 cancer deaths are estimated to occur annually.
Increase in prevalence in cancer, growth in population and more dispatchable money with the older section of the society, and rise in awareness about the treatments, technologies, and the disease itself drive the market growth. However, the high cost involved in new drug development coupled with threat of failure and adverse effects associated with anti-cancer drugs therapies restrain the growth of the market. Nevertheless, advancements in cancer drug research owing to biological/targeted therapies and personalized medicines make way for promising opportunities for pharmaceutical, bio-pharmaceutical, and biotechnology companies engaged in developing cancer drugs.
