Burgeoning investments in the research and development (R&D) sector for the approval of immune checkpoint inhibitors for cancer applications are imparting large momentum to the growth of the market. However, the growing trend of regulatory price capping has crippled the overall revenue of drug makers. The adverse reactions witnessed from the use of CTLA-4 immune checkpoint inhibitors in a sizeable percent of patient population is also a key factor hampering the growth of overall market.

Of all the key regional markets for immune checkpoint inhibitors, North America is anticipated to hold the leading share in the global immune checkpoint inhibitors by the end of 2018 end. On the other hand, Asia Pacific is projected to rise at a relatively higher CAGR over 2018–2026.

The various drug classes in the immune checkpoint inhibitors market are programmed cell death protein 1 (PD-1), cytotoxic T-lymphocyte–associated antigen 4 (CTLA-4), and Programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1). These are the only approved drug classes. Of these, PD-1 leads the pack at present and is expected to hold its sway throughout the forecast period.

Some of the top players operating in the immune checkpoint inhibitors market are Sanofi, Pfizer, Novartis AG, Roche Holdings AG, Bristol-Myers Squibb, and AstraZeneca. A number of these companies have immune checkpoint inhibitor candidates in the drug pipeline and the product launches are expected to take place in the not-so-distant future. Several manufacturers are focusing on entering into strategic collaborations and agreements in a bid to expand their geographic reach and gain a stronghold over the market.
