Gastric Cancer Drug Pipeline Analysis Report 2024

According to World Cancer Research Fund International, approximately 968,784 new cases of gastric cancer were diagnosed in 2022 across the globe. Data suggests that gastric cancer ranks among the top three most common cancers in 19 countries and continues to be the leading cause of cancer mortality worldwide. The ongoing development of innovative and novel therapies shows a promising future for gastric cancer treatment.

Report Coverage

The Gastric Cancer Drug Pipeline report by Expert Market Research gives comprehensive insights on the gastric cancer drugs currently undergoing clinical trials and covers various aspects related to the details for each of these drugs under development. The report includes the analysis of over 100 pipeline drugs and 50+ companies. Moreover, the analysis based on efficacy and safety measures outcomes published for the trials will be covered including their adverse effects in gastric cancer.

A detailed analysis of each drug, drug class, clinical studies, phase type, drug type, route of administration and ongoing product development activities are covered.

Gastric Cancer Drug Pipeline Outlook

An abnormal cell growth in the stomach can lead to gastric cancer. Before the development of true cancer, pre-cancerous changes occur in the inner lining of the stomach. There are multiple types of gastric cancer which include adenocarcinoma of the stomach, Gastroesophageal Junction Adenocarcinoma (GEJ), gastrointestinal neuroendocrine tumors, and Gastrointestinal Stromal Tumors (GIST).

The treatment for gastric cancer depends on the location of the cancer within the stomach and cancer stage. The treatment options include chemotherapy, targeted therapy and immunotherapy, radiation therapy and others. In 2021, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration amended its accelerated approval of the immunotherapy drug pembrolizumab (Keytruda) for treatment of advanced stomach cancer and gastroesophageal junction (GEJ) cancer.

Research studies shows that the drugs that target HER2 can be used to treat other cancers as well stomach cancer and GEJ cancer. Data suggests that 15% of patients with advanced stomach cancer have HER2-positive tumors. In November 2023, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration approved pembrolizumab combined with chemotherapy as an initial treatment for patients suffering from advanced stomach gastric that is HER2-negative.

The report covers the pathophysiology and epidemiology of gastric cancer, developing treatment, and the progress and future aspects of ongoing clinical trials for treatment in detail.
