Multiple myeloma is an incurable hematological malignancy with a 100% mortality rate that affects a sizable portion of the Chinese population every year. With the introduction of proteasome inhibitors and immunomodulatory agents in China, the median overall survival has seen much improvement over the last decade. The multiple myeloma market of China is expected to expand further over the 2020-2030 period, fueled by the increasing disease incidence and an increasing uptake of targeted agents—most notably that of the recently launched daratumumab and upcoming carfilzomib, selinexor and isatuximab—owing to their potential efficacy in improving the progression-free survival (PFS) in patients, especially in the relapsed / refractory setting. Despite the availability of several traditional and novel agents over the forecast period, high unmet need will remain for therapies that can significantly improve patients’ PFS and overall survival (OS), representing an opportunity for new drug developers. Additionally, with the ongoing reforms in China’s regulatory and access and reimbursement landscape, multinational companies are likely to be increasingly incentivized to enter the multiple myeloma market of China.
