Market Dynamics: Drivers & Restraints
Rise in technological advancements
The rise in technological advancements in immunotherapies is one of the driving factors that help the market to grow during the forecast period. For instance, an area of innovation in India is the use of personalized medicine in immuno-oncology. This approach involves using genetic information about a patient’s tumour to select the most appropriate IO treatment for that individual. Research is being conducted to develop methods for identifying which patients are most likely to respond to immunotherapy drugs and to understand the mechanisms behind the clinical response.
Some of these path-breaking innovations have a significant artificial intelligence (AI) / machine learning (ML) component. AI is also being leveraged for assessing new and better combination therapies which involve using more than one type of existing treatment in conjunction with immunotherapy for better outcomes.
Furthermore, the global immuno-oncology (io)-thematic intelligence is also driven by various other factors like a rise in clinical trials and approval of IO therapies, a rise in demand for combination therapies and others helping the market to grow during the forecast period.
Overuse of combination therapies
The widespread use of combination therapies can make clinical trial design more complex, especially if no combination partner is currently approved or if clinical trials require acquisition or additional costs for the combination partner. The introduction of these combination therapies is expected to increase treatment costs, which may require new models for working with payers and demonstrating cost-effectiveness.
