Market Outlook:
Immune checkpoint inhibitors are revolutionizing the treatment algorithm for the unresectable locally advanced or metastatic bladder cancer. With the 2016/7 FDA approvals of five immune checkpoint inhibitors for platinum-treated patients (i.e., second– and later lines), PD-L1 inhibitor Tecentriq (Roche/Genentech) first followed by PD-1 inhibitor Opdivo (Bristol-Myers Squibb) and other PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors, significant sales are forecast to be generated in the unresectable locally advanced or metastatic setting. There is now intense phase II/III pipeline activity, with some drugs in late-phase pipeline also targeting previously-untreated unresectable locally advanced or metastatic bladder cancer (i.e., first-line setting). We anticipate that several new therapies will gain approvals within the forecast period, resulting in increased therapy options for patients.
