Malignant Melanoma | Disease Landscape and Forecast | G7 | 2017

The malignant melanoma market has become increasingly crowded in recent years with novel treatments expanding therapy options for patients and segmenting the market according to BRAF mutational status. The introduction of immune checkpoint inhibitors such as Merck & ;s Keytruda and Bristol-Myers Squibb’s Opdivo has led to their domination of this market. The treatment algorithm will continue to evolve, with the entry of several agents into the underpenetrated and high opportunity resectable setting, the advent of triplet BRAF/MEK/immune checkpoint inhibitor combinations in the unresectable or metastatic setting, and the market entry of IDO-1 inhibitors in combination with PD-1 inhibitors. In such a dynamic indication, marketed drugs need to be carefully positioned to achieve optimal uptake.
