Impact of COVID-19 on the cancer immunotherapy market:

COVID-19 had a positive impact on the healthcare sector. World health organization announced COVID-19 as a pandemic on March 11, 2020. During the first half of 2020, the cancer immunotherapy market was slightly reduced due to the lockdown restrictions and ban on travel. There was an increase in the cancer patient rate, but the world was focused on fighting against the coronavirus, and many cancer treatments have been postponed. As there is a high risk for cancer patients due to COVID-19, they need to stay home. The treatment procedures for cancer patients were resumed in the last months with preventive measures as it is mandatory to give continuous treatment. The market shares are expected to grab the highest growth rate by 2021. 

Multiple therapeutic regimens are being followed across various countries to develop a reliable cancer treatment. Immunotherapy is a cancer treatment that boosts the human immune system to fight against cancer cells. But cancer treatment therapies have been stopped and postponed by various hospitals worldwide due to the sudden outburst of the COVID-19 pandemic. In addition, many countries have been impacted negatively by the coronavirus. Therefore, no activities related to cancer therapies have been done due to the unavailability of doctors and medical centers, but cancer patients need to monitor their conditions regularly. This is expected to result in industry growth over the forecast period.

MARKET DRIVERS:

The growing occurrence of cancer, the rising number of R & D, and technological developments in treatment options are majorly fuelling the global cancer immunotherapy market.

Cancer has now become one of the leading causes of death worldwide. According to the statistics published by the World Health Organization (WHO), an estimated 9.6 million died of cancer in 2018 also found tobacco was the leading risk factor for cancer, and recorded 22% of the responsibility for cancer deaths in 2018. The noticed increasing prevalence of cancer is estimated to favor the growth of the global cancer immunotherapy market.

Additionally, global cancer immunotherapy is fuelled by the high efficacy of immunotherapy compared to other treatments, fewer side effects associated with cancer immunotherapy, and reduced chance of cancer recurrence. Other notable drivers expanding the market size are technological advances in clinical therapies, increased R&D for cancer treatment, and the specificity and efficacy of cancer immunotherapy to treat a wide range of cancers.

The rising adoption of advanced therapeutics for cancer and growing implementation in the healthcare sector to treat cancer diseases is also supporting the growth of the global cancer immunotherapy market. Also, public organizations are focusing on investment in Research and development activities to develop new cancer immunotherapy. CAR –T cell therapy development is also propelling market growth.

MARKET RESTRAINTS:

High costs associated with immunotherapy drugs are difficult for some cancer patients to afford, which is limiting the adoption and hampering the market growth. The side effects of cancer immunotherapy such as inflammation, fatigue, and skin reactions, are another notable attribute hindering the market growth. The stringent regulatory environment for immunotherapy drugs and limited access to cancer immunotherapy in low-income countries are diluting the overall growth rate of the market. The presence of alternative cancer treatments such as chemotherapy, radiation therapy, and targeted therapy is limiting the adoption of cancer immunotherapy and affecting the market’s growth rate. Lack of awareness among patients and healthcare providers in some countries as it is a new treatment approach is further impeding the market growth.
