In the current decade, oncology has been one of the most important growth segments among the pharmaceutical markets with a major focus on targeted agents (drug treatments developed to preferentially target those signaling pathways that are disregulated in tumors). Most innovation in oncology over the past 10 years has been driven by scientific advances, particularly in genomics, transcriptomics and proteomics.
In the current environment, the successful oncology players of the future will be those that can anticipate protocol evolution and design the most relevant clinical trials. In recent years, biotech companies have fuelled innovation in oncology more than ever before. Partnering with biotech companies is a key (but expensive) source of innovation for many pharma companies as approximately 75% of phase II, III and pre-registration innovative drugs are of biotech origin.
At $47.7bn, cancer is one of the largest, fastest growing markets in the pharmaceutical industry. However, pricing risk remains the key investment concern in oncology. The key concern, however, is not price erosion driven by competitive forces, but price cuts imposed by payors irrespective of the fact that such unilateral price cuts by payors have never occurred in any of the major developed markets and would surely jeopardize the premise on which the entire biopharmaceutical industry has been built.
- Merck's Gardasil adds US indication of genital warts for boys and men
On 16th October 2009, Gardasil's US label was extended to include its use in both men and boys aged 9-26 years of age. The pivotal trial results showed an efficacy of 90.4% while preventing external genital lesions of HPV types 6/11/16/18. In addition, Merck also planned to extend its vaccine patient assistance program providing free Gardasil to 19-26 year old uninsured males meeting eligibility criteria but unable to afford the vaccine.

- FDA approves Cervarix for cervical cancer
In October 2009, FDA approved GSK's Cervarix for the prevention of
pre-cancerous lesions caused by human papillomavirus (HPV) type 16 & 18 in
women aged 10-25 years. Cervarix's inclusion in children's vaccine program is
a major step towards securing reimbursement. Cervarix, expected to launch by
the end of 2009, faces direct competition from Merck's Gardasil and will help
to reduce the incidence of cervical cancer in future.- Merck's Gardasil adds US indication of genital warts for boys and men
On 16th October 2009, Gardasil's US label was extended to include its use in both men and boys aged 9-26 years of age. The pivotal trial results showed an efficacy of 90.4% while preventing external genital lesions of HPV types 6/11/16/18.
