The gastroesophageal cancer therapy market (including gastric, gastroesophageal junction, and esophageal cancer) is rapidly evolving and experiencing substantial growth, largely driven by the increasing uptake of immune checkpoint inhibitors. The label expansions of Opdivo (Bristol Myers Squibb / Ono Pharmaceutical) and Keytruda (Merck & Co.), as well as the expected approvals of other immune checkpoint inhibitors, will continue to reshape the HER2-negative gastroesophageal cancer therapy market. Immune checkpoint inhibitors in combination with HER2-targeted agents and chemotherapy, as well as the anti-HER2 antibody-drug conjugate Enhertu (Daiichi Sankyo / AstraZeneca), are poised to expand treatment options for HER2-positive disease. Other therapies are targeting niche biomarkers (e.g., claudin18.2, FGFR2b) and will provide novel treatments for these patient subpopulations.
