Dublin, June 16, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The "Immuno-oncology: Focus on Developments and Opportunities in Immune Checkpoint Modulators" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.
This report focuses on immune checkpoint modulators and provides an overview of the current and emerging key products and players within the 8MM (France, Germany, Italy, Spain, UK, US, Japan, China), main unmet needs; R&D challenges, strategies and opportunities; and clinical development trends. The report also includes competitive analysis of marketed products and a tabular analysis of key checkpoint targets and indications investigated in clinical trials. In addition, the report also provides an overview and critical assessment of the future landscape including bispecific antibodies, predictive/prognostic biomarkers and microbiome.
Key Highlights
- Although ICIs work in some tumors such as lung cancer and melanoma, the majority of cancers fail to respond to ICIs, mainly due to various tumor- and immune-related factors.
- These tumor types are refractory, benefitting the least from available therapies. Remission rates in all tumors are high, which can result in secondary resistance to ICIs.
- The understanding of endogenous resistance mechanisms is poor and ICI monotherapy has not been able to overcome issues related to secondary resistance.
- None of the current biomarkers used in development and in clinical practice are sensitive or accurate enough.
- Without robust predictive/prognostic biomarkers, it is difficult to execute effective patient segmentation in clinical trials, match the best drugs for combination therapies, or predict and proactively manage side effects that might arise due to a treatment.
- Lack of robust, predictive biomarkers creates a bottleneck for companies to develop safer and effective therapies for both small subsets of patients as well as for common tumors.
- Current research in novel checkpoint targets provides possible rationale for addressing primary and secondary resistance in some tumor types.
- In addition to immunotherapy combinations, companies are investigating targeted therapies as possible additions to ICI-based combinations to increase response rates in tumors with known mutations and genetic aberrations.
- In the future, with emerging pharmacological and immune biomarkers, the publisher expects numerous doublet and triplet combination therapies to appear in all lines of treatment.
