According to The Business Research Company’s Consultant, Nitin Gianchandani, Companies are increasingly using cancer biomarkers in the drug development process. Cancer biomarkers are molecules secreted by a tumor or a specific response of the body to the presence of cancer. Identifying and targeting these can enhance cancer detection and facilitate high-speed noninvasive diagnosis using genomics and proteomics tools. It can also help predict the drug efficacy faster than conventional clinical endpoints, the point at which an undesired or abnormal effect of the drug is observed indicating withdrawal from therapy. Companies in this market are investing in the development of biomarkers for use in various activities such as tracking drug activity, the pharmacodynamics of drugs and to study diseases and treatment pathways. For instance, Nektar Therapeutics is developing and using biomarkers in drug development processes of its pipeline drugs NKTR-214 and NKTR-181. Janssen’s research & development is also focusing on identifying predictive markers or stratification markers to help target the new therapies.
