The IQVIA Institute has released a report detailing the global rise in cancer diagnoses and the corresponding increase in innovative cancer therapies. Cancer incidence is projected to reach 32 million new cases annually by 2050, especially in lower-income countries.
Global spending on cancer medicines rose to $223 billion in 2023 and is expected to hit $409 billion by 2028. The year 2023 saw the launch of 25 novel active substances (NASs) in oncology, bringing the total to 193 since 2014.
Over 2,000 new oncology clinical trials began in 2023, featuring advanced therapies like cell and gene therapies, antibody-drug conjugates, and radioligand therapies. Despite advancements, geographic disparities in access to these therapies persist.
Oncology trials have become less complex, increasing the success rate to 10% in 2023 from 4% the previous year. However, the pace of bringing new therapies to patients remains uneven due to differences in healthcare infrastructure and adoption rates.
Overall spending on medicines in the U.S. grew by 2.5% in 2023, reaching $435 billion. Excluding COVID-19 vaccines and therapeutics, the growth rate was 9.9%, driven by advances in oncology, immunology, diabetes, and obesity treatments. Patient out-of-pocket costs rose to $91 billion, influenced by wider use of GLP-1 agonists for diabetes and obesity. New prescriptions increased by 4%, while patient visits and diagnostics fell by 4-6%. The flu vaccination rate dropped by 17%. The IQVIA Health Services Utilization Index fell 3% to 97. The report projects continued growth in medicine spending, driven by innovation but tempered by patent expirations and the introduction of biosimilars. Net pharmaceutical spending is forecasted to grow at 4-7% annually through 2028, with oncology and obesity as primary growth drivers.
