The Global BRAF Kinase Inhibitors Market is Anticipated to Witness High Growth Owing to Increasing Cancer Incidences
BRAF kinase inhibitors are molecular targeted therapies used for treatment of cancers like melanoma, lung cancer and colorectal cancer caused due to abnormality in BRAF gene. BRAF kinase inhibitors work by blocking the interaction of BRAF proteins with MEK proteins, thereby inhibiting downstream signaling of the MAPK pathway which drives uncontrolled cell growth. The increasing demand for targeted therapies and rising cancer burden globally is fueling the growth of BRAF kinase inhibitors market.
Key Takeaways
Key players: Key players operating in the BRAF kinase inhibitors market are Hoffmann-La Roche Ltd, Siemens Healthineers AG, Abbott Laboratories, Thermo Fisher Scientific Inc., Danaher Corporation, Sysmex Corporation, Becton, Dickinson and Company, Bio-Rad Laboratories, Inc., Quidel Corporation, Hologic, Inc., Ortho Clinical Diagnostics, Beckman Coulter, Inc. (a subsidiary of Danaher Corporation), BioMérieux SA, Trinity Biotech plc, EKF Diagnostics Holdings plc.
Key opportunities: The rising prevalence of cancer globally especially lung cancer, colorectal cancer and melanoma presents lucrative opportunities for players in BRAF Kinase Inhibitors Market Demand Also, ongoing research on combination therapies and second generation BRAF inhibitors will further drive the market growth.
Global expansion: Major players are expanding their geographical reach through partnerships, acquisitions and new product launches to meet the increasing demand from international markets like Asia Pacific and Latin America.
Market drivers: Rapid increase in cancer incidence rates worldwide mainly due to changing lifestyle habits is a major market driver. According to WHO, cancer burden is expected to rise by 70% over the next 20 years. Growing awareness about targeted cancer therapies and their advantages over chemotherapy is augmenting the market growth.
The second largest segment is Tafinlar which has a market share of 20%. Tafinlar is also a BRAF inhibitor used for treating types of skin cancer called melanoma. It is primarily used for melanoma whose tumors have a change (mutation) in the BRAF gene that activates the BRAF protein and leads to cancer cell growth. Tafinlar works by blocking the BRAF protein in order to slow or stop the growth and spread of cancer cells.
