Breast Cancer | China In-Depth | China | 2020

Breast cancer is the most commonly diagnosed cancer among Chinese women. A high incidence and a prolonged treatment duration make the treatment of breast cancer a lucrative commercial opportunity for pharmaceutical manufacturers in China. The drug-treatment rate for breast cancer has increased over the last few years in China owing to the launch of novel, premium-priced, targeted therapies (e.g., pertuzumab [Roche’s Perjeta]) and the inclusion of these agents in the National Reimbursement Drug List (NRDL). With a strong late-phase pipeline, we expect additional new agents to be launched, leading to further market growth during the forecast period. Additionally, with the ongoing reforms in the regulatory and access and reimbursement landscape of China, multinational companies are likely to be increasingly encouraged to enter the breast cancer therapy market.
