Targeted Cancer Therapies Market 2018-2026: Experts Cues for High Growth Worldwide With Global Players Abbott Laboratories, Bayer AG, Boehringer Ingelheim GmbH, GlaxoSmithKline plc, AstraZeneca PLC, OncoGenex Pharmaceuticals Inc. and Pfizer, Inc.

Targeted cancer therapies are drugs which block the growth and proliferation of cancer by interfering with specific molecules such as DNA or proteins, which are involved in the growth or expansion of cancerous cells. Targeted cancer therapies differ in several ways from standard chemotherapy. Standard chemotherapy act on all rapidly dividing cancerous cells as well as normal cells, while targeted cancer therapies act on specific molecular targets that are associated with cancer. Standard chemotherapy agents are cytotoxic that kill tumor cells, while targeted therapies are often cytostatic that blocks tumor cell proliferation. Targeted therapies uses information about a person’s gene and protein to prevent, diagnose, and treat disease, which makes them extremely applicable in the making of precision medicine. Targeted therapy drugs are mainly used for the treatment of cancer, and are mostly used along with another treatments such as chemotherapy, surgery, and radiation therapy.

Various insurance companies cover the targeted therapy drugs that are taken orally according to the prescription. However, drugs that are given intravenously are covered in a different way by insurance plans, wherein patient end up paying more money. According to report published in the Journal of Clinical Oncology, in 2015, expenditure for cancer drugs has significantly increased to around US$ 200 for oral drugs per patient per month and around US$ 900 for targeted intravenous anti-cancer therapy per month. According to a study by US National Bureau of Economic Research, in 2015, prices of cancer drugs have increased 10% every year between 1995 and 2013. Rising cost of targeted oral anticancer medicines is a major factor in rising overall cost of targeted cancer therapies.
