Introduction
Cancer pharmacotherapy is on the cusp of a paradigm shift. The emergence of a richness of targets and developmental agents has resulted from a convergence of scientific advances. However, maximizing the chances of success and optimizing commercial rewards will require developers to mitigate several key scientific, clinical, regulatory and economic obstacles
Scope
- Overview of the clinical and developmental challenges facing players in the oncology sector
- Expert insight into strategies for improving patient selection and optimizing "go and no-go" decisions in progressing late stage clinical development
- Lifecycle management case studies of key targeted therapy agents
- Strategies to overcome pharmacoeconomic challenges hindering the uptake of targeted treatment
Report Highlights
Targeted treatment (TT) will not entirely replace traditional cytotoxic treatment and the latter will continue to form the cornerstone of cancer treatment. However, the co-administration of TT will allow the optimization of cytotoxic doses and so drive the market for both classes over the coming years
Lifecycle management in the era of TT is becoming increasingly more challenging. The key to future success will be intensified efforts to identify responsive patient populations at an earlier stage of the drug development process
Given the mechanistic differences between small molecules and antibodies a logical approach is to combine these two drug classes. While this is an area of active clinical research, key to the success of this economically challenging approach is to identify the best combination of drugs and the patients that will benefit most from treatment
Reasons to Purchase
- Understand clinical and strategic challenges to the commercialization of targeted treatments
- Assess opportunities and risks for the continued development of innovative developmental treatments
- Adopt knowledge from this report to drive strategic planning decisions in oncology drug development

- Datamonitors Oncology Foresight Seminar provides vehicle for analysts and key opinion leaders to share their perspectives on challenges to commercialization of MTTs
CHAPTER 3 MEETING EXISTING UNMET NEEDS
- Successful management of advanced disease is relatively limited
- Cytotoxic chemotherapy will continue to form the cornerstone of treatment approaches
- Improvements in symptom control, quality of life and, above all, cure rates should be the goals of MTT
CHAPTER 4 OPTIMIZING TREATMENT APPROACHES EMPLOYING MTTS
- Cancer pharmacotherapy is on the cusp of a paradigm shift
- Novartiss Gleevec (imatinib) provides a model for future developmental strategies
- A plethora of molecular targets offered by a greater understanding of signal transduction
- The signal transduction paradox: is less specificity better?
- Angiogenesis inhibitors offer greatest clinical benefit when administered in combination with chemotherapy
- Which targeted therapy class offers the greatest commercial potential?
- Monoclonal antibodies: an unprecedented success story
- Small molecule drugs: tumor shrinkage not consistently translated into improved survival
- Decision to use monotherapy or combinatorial approach is dependent on drug class
- Small molecule EGFR-TKIs have shown limited clinical benefit when administered as monotherapy
- OSI/Genentech/Roches Tarveca provides the only clear demonstration of clinical benefit with EGFR-TKI monotherapy
- Millenniums Velacde provides more of a broad-spectrum approach
- Development of Johnson & Johnsons Zarnestra will benefit from improved patient selection in clinical trials
- High-profile failures in combining small molecules with chemotherapy the result of poor patient selection?
- Clinical activity of MoAbs appears greatest when combined with chemotherapy
- Herceptin is set to revolutionize the treatment of HER-2 overexpressing breast cancer
- Rituxan has demonstrated activity both as monotherapy and in combination approaches with chemotherapy
- Erbitux proves the first example of success in combining a MTT with radiotherapy
- Dilemmas persist regarding the optimiziation of combination approaches employing MTTs
- The emerging richness of targets in oncology
- Combining two unapproved MTTs will raise complex legal issues
CHAPTER 5 INCREASED PATIENT SELECTION AND MARKET SEGMENTATION IN THE ERA OF MTT
- Issues regarding patient selection are now far more complex
- Efficient and accurate assessment of biologically relevant target is often elusive
- Patient selection for Herceptin treatment is the archetype
- Fundamental to pursuing targeted patient selection are pharmacoeconomic considerations
- Improved patient selection: what tumor-specific features can be evaluated?
- Gene amplification, gene expression and somatic mutation can help predict clinical benefit derived from MTT
- Molecular characterization of EGFR correlates to treatment response with EGFR TKIs
- Mutated EGFR requires lower ligand concentrations for activation
- Patient selection for anti-angiogenic therapy
CHAPTER 6 OPTIMIZATION OF GO/NO-GO DECISIONS NECESSARY TO MITIGATE HIGH ATTRITION RATES
- Early development of diagnostic for biologically relevant target is critical
- Proof of concept paradigm shift
- The randomized discontinuation trial: a novel, innovative Phase II design
- Conventially recognized definitions of response need to be re-evaluated in the age of MTT
CHAPTER 7 MTTS TARGETING MULTIPLE ONCOGENIC SIGNALS IS AN AREA OF INTENSE R&D ACTIVITY
- Pfizer and Bayer/Onxy sprint to the finish line in the race to commercialize a multi-targeted TKI
- Renal cell carcinoma particulary susceptible to anti-angiogenic approaches
- Inhibition of multiple mission critical pathways is the key to success
- 17-AAGs anti-tumor activity results from its ability to inhibit the molecular chaperone, HSP-90
CHAPTER 8 MTT AND DRUG RESISTANCE
- De novo resistance to MTTs is almost inevitable
- Using MTTs to overcome chemotherapy resistant clones
- The population-based risk assessment with empiric treatment needs to evolve to a more personalized approach
CHAPTER 9 CHANGING THE PARADIGM: CANCER AS A CHRONIC DISEASE?
- Evolving maintenance therapy to prevent tumor recurrence and improve progression-free survival
- Long-term toxicities following chronic administration of MTTs
- Long-term cardiac toxicity of Herceptin falls within the range of acceptability
- MTTs may have unique toxicity profiles
CHAPTER 10 HOW WILL LIFECYCLE MANAGEMENT STRATEGIES CHANGE WITH THE INTRODUCTION OF TARGETED TREATMENTS?
- Herceptins logical and stepwise approach to indication expansion
- Moving from the metastatic to adjuvant setting requires a tremendous committment of human and financial resources
- Ground-breaking results support clinical benefit of Herceptin in the adjuvant setting
- Ongoing LCM strategy evaluates Herceptin use in combination with antihormonals
- Herceptin: the archetypal approach to LCM for novel MTT?
- Rituxan indication expansion from a niche tumor to the backbone of treatment for B-cell malignancies
- Off-label use in the US responsible for a significant sales growth
- Maintenance therapy indication the next goal for Genentech/Roche
- Rituxan indication expansion into non-malignant disease is unprecedented in the MTT era, but it should not be unique
- Avastin LCM based on data derived from randomized Phase II studies
- Randomized Phase II approach contrasts with that of Novartiss PTK-787 (valatanib)
- Early disappointment from results of Avastin in combination with Xeloda tempered by Horowitz trial data
- Indication expansion beyond CRC into other tumor-types proves fruitful
- Randomized Phase II study demonstrates Avastin activity in NSCLC and mBC
CHAPTER 11 THE PHARMACOECONOMIC CHALLENGE
- Pharamcoeconomic contraints will become increasingly more challenging
- The rising costs of mCRC pharmacotherapy are disproportionate in relation to improvements in survival
- Improved pharmacoeconomic analysis will be required to communicate the value of novel MTTs
