Immune Checkpoint Inhibitors Market By Type (PD-1 Inhibitors, Pd-L1 Inhibitors, Ctla-4 Inhibitors, And Lag-3 Inhibitors), Application (Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer, Melanoma, Renal Cell Carcinoma, Bladder Cancer, And Others), And Geography (North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, And Rest Of The World) is expected to grow at a steady CAGR forecast till 2032 owing to the increasing cases of lung cancer and the rising prevalence of melanoma
The global Immune Checkpoint Inhibitors Market was valued at USD 41.65 billion in 2024, growing at a CAGR of 14.55% during the forecast period from 2025 to 2032 to reach USD 107.37 billion by 2032. The demand for Immune Checkpoint Inhibitors is primarily being boosted owing to the increasing cases of lung cancer, the Rising Melanoma Prevalence, and the rising number of research studies associated with immune checkpoint inhibitors, among others during the forecast period from 2025 to 2032.
Immune Checkpoint Inhibitors Market Dynamics
The increasing number of lung cancer cases is one of the key drivers that will raise the demand for immune checkpoint inhibitors treatment and lead to an increase in the immune checkpoint inhibitors market growth in the upcoming years.
For instance, the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) (2022), stated that there were 20 million new cancer cases in 2020 globally, with 1 in 9 men and 1 in 12 women expected to die from cancer. The source further stated that lung cancer and female breast cancer were the most commonly occurring cancers in 2022 worldwide, accounting respectively for 12.4% and 11.6% of total new cases; followed by colorectal cancer (9.6%), prostate cancer (7.3%), and stomach cancer (4.9%). Therefore, owing to an increase in the number of patients suffering from various types of cancers and the deaths associated with it, there will be an increase in the demand for immune checkpoint inhibitors, thus spurring their Immune Checkpoint Inhibitors market growth during the forecast period.
Furthermore, as per the American Cancer Society’s statistics for lung cancer in the United States (2022), about 236,740 new cases of lung cancer were observed in the year 2022. Moreover, as per Cancer Research UK 2022, there are about 48,500 new lung cancer cases in the United Kingdom on average every year, which accounts for more than 130 cases per day. Also, as per the same source, lung cancer is the third most common cancer in the United Kingdom, thereby accounting for more than 13% of all new cancer cases.
The immune checkpoint inhibitors allow the immune system to recognize and attack the cancer cells. Owing to a rise in the number of patients suffering from lung cancers, there will be an increase in the demand for immune checkpoint inhibitors, leading to an increase in the overall immune checkpoint inhibitors market growth. However, the high cost associated with the research and development of immune checkpoint inhibitors, and the regulatory price capping pertaining to them may act as significant restraints that are expected to limit the growth of the Immune Checkpoint Inhibitors market during the forecast period
Immune Checkpoint Inhibitors Market Segment Analysis
Immune Checkpoint Inhibitors Market by Type (PD-1 Inhibitors, PD-L1 Inhibitors, CTLA-4 Inhibitors, and LAG-3 Inhibitors), Application (Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer, Melanoma, Renal Cell Carcinoma, Bladder Cancer, and Others), and Geography (North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, and Rest of the World)
In the type segment of the Immune Checkpoint Inhibitors market, the PD-1 Inhibitors category is estimated to amass a significant revenue share in the Immune Checkpoint Inhibitors market in 2024. This can be ascribed to the various advantages associated with them and the product development activities taking place in the PD-1 Inhibitors category. PD-1 inhibitor is a checkpoint protein on immune cells called the T cells. The monoclonal antibodies target either PD-1 or PD-L1 and block the binding and helps in boosting the immune response against the cancer cells.
The upsurge in cancer cases across the globe will drive the demand for PD-1 inhibitors. For instance, As per the data from GLOBOCAN (2022) over 35 million new cancer cases are predicted in 2050, a 77% increase from the estimated 20 million cases in 2022, with the proportional increase in incidence most striking in low Human Development Index (HDI) countries (142% increase) and in medium HDI countries (99%). The source also stated that cancer mortality in these countries is projected to almost double in 2050. These drugs can be used in the treatment of several forms of cancer.
For instance, several PD-1 inhibitor drugs that have been approved by the Food and Administration approval comprise pembrolizumab (Keytruda), nivolumab (Opdivo), and cemiplimab (Libtayo). Therefore, the rising prevalence of cancer and the increased FDA approval of PD-1 inhibitors are the prime factors expected to drive the growth of the immune checkpoint inhibitors market over the forecast episode.
Hence, all the aforementioned factors will contribute to the growth of the Immune Checkpoint Inhibitors market for PD-1 inhibitors during the forecast period from 2025 to 2032.
North America Is Expected To Dominate The Overall Immune Checkpoint Inhibitors Market
North America is expected to account for the highest proportion of the Immune Checkpoint Inhibitors market in 2024, out of all regions. This is owing to the rising prevalence of cancers such as bladder cancer, lung cancer, and others in the region. In addition, rising product approvals, growing focus on R&D activities by the key manufacturers, and rising government initiatives in the region are the factors responsible for the growth of the US immune checkpoint inhibitors market.
For instance, as per the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) (2022), each year in the United States, about 54,000 men and 16,000 women get bladder cancer on average.
In addition, as per the American Cancer Society 2023, approximately 82,290 new cases of bladder cancer (about 62,420 in men and 19,870 in women) were diagnosed in 2023 in the US. The source further mentioned that around 97,610 new melanomas were diagnosed (about 58,120 in men and 39,490 in women) in the US in 2023.
The rising approval of immune checkpoint inhibitors by the FDA is also responsible for increasing the demand for immune checkpoint inhibitors leading to the overall US Immune Checkpoint Inhibitors market growth. For example, pembrolizumab (Keytruda), ipilimumab (Yervoy), nivolumab (Opdivo), and atezolizumab (Tecentriq) have been approved by the FDA authority for the treatment of various cancers. Thus, all the above-mentioned factors are anticipated to propel the Immune Checkpoint Inhibitors market in North America during the forecast period from 2025 to 2032.
