Cancer Vaccines Market

  • The Cancer Vaccines Market is characterized by a healthy and growing pipeline including IO102-IO103 (IO Biotech), CAN-2409 (Candel Therapeutics), mRNA-4157 (V940) + KEYTRUDA (Merck and Moderna), PDC*lung01 (PDC*line Pharma/LG Chem), LB-LR1109 (LG Chem and AVEO Oncology) and others which are designed to target a wide range of cancers including Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC), colorectal cancer, glioblastoma, melanoma, breast cancer, and others. 
  • The steady advancement in vaccine development over the past few decades, leading to the creation of vaccines targeting cancers, is poised to transform the way different types of cancer are treated.
  • Bacillus Calmette-Guérin (BCG) became the first immunotherapy of any type to be approved by the FDA and is still used for the treatment of early-stage bladder cancer. In 2010, PROVENGE (sipuleucel-T) was approved by the US FDA for the treatment of advanced prostate cancer followed by the approval of IMLYGIC (talimogene laherparepvec) in 2015 for treatment of melanoma.
  • Recent developments in RNA technology and the recognition of the clinical importance of tumor neoantigens have led to encouraging trials of novel RNA vaccines and provide hope that effective cancer vaccines will be widely available in the next few years
  • Several Cancer Vaccines Companies such as WestGene Biopharma, IO Biotech, PDS Biotechnology, Merck and Moderna, Dendreon Pharmaceuticals, and BioVex are engaged in the development of cancer vaccines, with a range of approved and emerging drugs.
  • At the American Association for Cancer Research (AACR 2024), PDC*line Pharma, BioNTech, and others presented the data on various cancer vaccines that are being developed for different cancers.
  • In July 2024, IO Biotech revealed that findings from a Phase II basket trial evaluating IO102-IO103 in combination with pembrolizumab will be showcased at the ESMO Congress 2024. The presentation will include data from the complete squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck (SCCHN) cohort of the IOB-022/KN-D38 study.
  • In June 2024, LG Chem and AVEO Oncology announced the enrollment of the first patient in the U.S. for a Phase I clinical trial of LB-LR1109 (NCT06332755; LG project code LR19155), LG Chem’s first proprietary anti-cancer investigational drug. The study will evaluate the drug in participants with unresectable non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC), renal cell carcinoma (RCC), urothelial carcinoma, and malignant melanoma.
  • In May 2024, Candel Therapeutics presented Phase II trial data at the 2024 ASCO Annual Meeting, highlighting prolonged overall survival with CAN-2409 in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients.
  • In April 2024, CAN-2409 was granted Orphan Drug Designation by the US FDA for the treatment of pancreatic cancer. 
  • Cancer vaccines, although have not yet demonstrated a significant clinical impact, possess a huge potential for therapeutic purposes. Being tested as monotherapy as well as in combination with IOs, the class can confer long-lasting immunity against cancer recurrence and hold promise as a crucial component of future cancer treatment armamentarium.
  • The future direction of vaccine development will likely rely on combinatorial approaches with complementary anticancer therapeutics. For example, combinations with ICIs have already shown notable potential.

Cancer Disease Treatment Market

Cancer vaccines, a form of immunotherapy, assist the immune system in recognizing and eliminating cancer cells. They may originate from a patient's tumor cells, dendritic cells, or particular proteins in cancer cells. These vaccines can be divided into two types - preventive and therapeutic. Preventive vaccines are more established and aim at preventing viral infections linked to potential future cancers. Therapeutic vaccines, in contrast, target existing cancer, addressing a diverse array of cancer types, locations, and even personalized antigens unique to an individual's cancer.

Cancer treatment vaccines treat cancer by strengthening the body’s natural defenses against the cancer. Unlike cancer prevention vaccines, cancer treatment vaccines are designed to be used in people who already have cancer—they work against cancer cells, not against something that causes cancer. The idea behind treatment vaccines is that cancer cells contain substances, called tumor-associated antigens that are not present in normal cells or, if present, are at lower levels. Treatment vaccines can help the immune system learn to recognize and react to these antigens and destroy cancer cells that contain them.

Cancer Vaccines Marketed Drugs

  • PROVENGE (sipuleucel-T): Dendreon Pharmaceuticals 

PROVENGE (sipuleucel-T), developed by Dendreon Pharmaceuticals, is an autologous cellular immunotherapy available as a suspension for intravenous infusion. PROVENGE consists of autologous peripheral blood mononuclear cells, including antigen-presenting cells (APCs) that have been activated during a defined culture period with a recombinant human protein, PAP-GM-CSF, consisting of prostatic acid phosphatase (PAP), an antigen expressed in prostate cancer tissue, linked to granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF), an immune cell activator.

It was approved by the US FDA in 2010 for the treatment of asymptomatic or minimally symptomatic metastatic castrate-resistant (hormone-refractory) prostate cancer but it was hindered by its hefty price tag and uncertainty over insurance coverage and the company went bankrupt in 2014.

KOL Views

“Selection of the most efficacious context in which to use a cancer vaccine is important as well. Although cancer vaccines have largely been studied in the adjuvant and metastatic settings, the neoadjuvant space remains relatively underexplored. Used as a neoadjuvant treatment, patients would typically not be faced with biologic barriers such as T-cell exhaustion, diminished immune system, and immunoediting from previous lines of therapy.”
