Gastroesophageal Cancer – Unmet Need – Detailed, Expanded Analysis (US & EU) Previously treated Metastatic Gastric and Gastroesophageal Junction (GEJ) Adenocarcinoma

While the incidence of gastric and GEJ adenocarcinoma continues to rise, efficacious treatment options, especially in the previously treated metastatic setting, remain limited. Cyramza (Eli Lilly) and cytotoxic therapies are the mainstays of treatment, and new therapies, including Keytruda (Merck & Co.) and Lonsurf (Taiho Oncology), have recently been added to the armamentarium. Several new therapies, spanning novel drug classes, are in development, and if they can demonstrate greater survival benefits than the current standards of care, they could reap significant commercial rewards. The substantial unmet need for therapeutic management of previously treated metastatic gastric and GEJ adenocarcinoma with more-efficacious and well-tolerated novel therapies presents an attractive opportunity for drug developers.
