Gastroesophageal Cancer | Disease Landscape & Forecast | G7 | 2019

The incidence of gastroesophageal cancer—encompassing gastric cancer, esophageal cancer, and gastroesophageal junction (GEJ) adenocarcinoma— continues to rise; however, treatment options remain limited. Targeted therapies, including Herceptin (Roche / Genentech / Chugai [for HER2-positive patients only]) and Cyramza (Eli Lilly), have been approved exclusively for gastric and GEJ adenocarcinoma patients across the major markets. Additional agents are also approved for later-line treatments in certain geographies, such as Keytruda (Merck & Co.), Opdivo (Bristol-Myers Squibb), and Lonsurf (Taiho). A plethora of agents including immunotherapies, vaccines, and a variety of targeted therapies are vying for approval in underserved patient segments, such as resectable disease or the first-line metastatic setting.

Questions Answered

• How do current treatment practices differ among esophageal, gastric, and GEJ cancer patients? Do these practices differ by geography, and which populations provide the greatest drug-treatment opportunities?
• What are interviewed experts’ insights on the use of currently approved agents? What clinical needs remain unfulfilled, and on what opportunities can developers capitalize?
• Which drugs in late-phase development are poised to change the treatment landscape for gastroesophageal cancer? How are these agents being assessed, and how will they impact the gastroesophageal cancer market?
• What are the key market drivers and constraints in the gastroesophageal market, and how will the market evolve over the forecast period?
