The market is witnessing a surge in demand driven by the rising prevalence of gastric carcinoma cases and related conditions like gastric adenocarcinoma and gastrointestinal stromal tumors. Pharmaceutical giants are actively developing and introducing advanced treatments, such as Trastuzumab deruxtecan and Programmed Cell Death Protein 1 (PD-1) inhibitors like Keytruda, Herceptin, and Cyramza, aiming to improve patient outcomes and expand treatment options for patients worldwide.
Technavio has segmented the market into Route Of Administration, Distribution Channel, and Geography. Herzuma, among other medications, plays a crucial role in combating gastric cancer, particularly for patients with a family history of the disease. These drugs are administered through different routes to target the affected areas, primarily the stomach lining, where cancerous cells manifest. Patients often experience symptoms such as nausea, fatigue, bloating, stomach pain, vomiting, and weight loss, necessitating prompt and targeted drug delivery to alleviate discomfort and combat the disease. Biomarkers are also utilized to identify specific treatment pathways tailored to individual patient needs, ensuring optimal therapeutic outcomes. Overall, the route of administration segment encompasses various approaches to deliver medications effectively, addressing the diverse symptoms while optimizing treatment efficacy and patient outcomes.
The market share growth by the injectable segment will be significant during the forecast period. An injection is a method of delivering medication into the bloodstream using a needle under the skin, which is inserted through the skin into the body (muscle or nerve). Most of the drugs being developed in the later stages of the gastric cancer drug system are biologics. The injectable route remains the preferred route for biologics, as the oral route often inactivates the drug.

The market addresses the pressing need for effective treatments against various gastric carcinoma cases, including Gastric Adenocarcinoma and Gastrointestinal Stromal Tumor. Innovative medications such as Trastuzumab deruxtecan, Keytruda, and Cyramza offer hope for patients by targeting specific cancer types and pathways. With advancements like Programmed Cell Death Protein 1 inhibitors and biosimilars Ogivri and Herzuma, treatment options continue to expand. Early detection through family history assessment and biomarkers is crucial, as symptoms like nausea, fatigue, and stomach pain can indicate underlying issues. This market underscores the ongoing efforts to combat gastric cancer and improve patient outcomes globally. There are multiple factors influencing market growth. Our researchers analyzed the data with 2022 as the base year, along with the key drivers, trends, and challenges.
The increasing prevalence of gastric cancer is the key factor driving the growth of the market. One of the key reasons for the increase in the rate of incidence is due to changes in lifestyle and eating habits. The consumption of processed and fast foods, high in fat and sugar, has become very common in recent years, leading to conditions such as obesity, which has been linked to chronic digestive disorders, including gastric cancer. In addition, a sedentary lifestyle without any physical activity or exercise is becoming increasingly popular, as many people have busy work schedules that leave them no time to exercise.
Moreover, the increase in the incidence of gastrointestinal cancer has a significant impact on patients and their families. Patients may experience chronic pain, loss of appetite, and reduced quality of life. Hence, the above-mentioned factors are expected to increase the demand for gastric cancer drugs globally, which is expected to drive the growth of the global market during the forecast period.
An increase in number of drug approvals and drug launches is a primary trend in the market. Over the past few years, there has been a significant increase in the number of regulatory agencies approving drugs for stomach cancer treatment. The US FDA has worked closely with pharmaceutical companies to streamline the approval process for these drugs, resulting in faster turnaround times from submission to approval.
Moreover, market players have launched new gastric cancer products. For instance, in March 2022, Samsung Biologics Co. Ltd. announced the launch of ONTRUZANT (trastuzumab-dttb) in the US for the treatment of early-stage and metastatic HER2-overexpressing breast cancer as well as metastatic gastric cancer. Hence, the increase in the number of drugs approved and launched is expected to drive the growth of the target market during the forecast period.
The presence of alternative treatment methods is the challenge that affects the growth of the market. Surgery for stomach cancer, also known as gastric cancer, aims to completely remove the disease. Surgery may be the first line of treatment for small stomach malignancies. If stomach cancer progresses to the lymph nodes or invades deeper into the stomach wall, other treatments may be tried first.
Furthermore, another stomach cancer treatment includes radiation therapy. High-energy beams are used in radiation therapy to kill cancer cells. The beams can come from protons, X-rays, or other sources. If the cancer has spread or cannot be operated on, radiation therapy may be used to treat the symptoms of stomach cancer. Therefore, the presence of different treatments, such as surgery and radiation therapy, will impede the demand for market during the forecast period.

The market is witnessing remarkable advancements in treatment options, particularly for complex conditions like Gastric Neuroendocrine Tumors and Gastrointestinal Stromal Tumors (GIST). Pharmaceutical innovations such as PD-1 inhibitors like Avelumab and Trazimera are revolutionizing immunotherapy, providing new hope for patients with advanced disease stages. Additionally, HER2 antagonists and VEGFR antagonists are proving effective in targeting specific molecular pathways, while chemotherapy agents like Lonsurf, Fluorouracil, and Capecitabine remain essential components of treatment regimens. Specialty and hospital pharmacies play crucial roles in ensuring access to these medications, including novel therapies like Enhertu and Oncoral, catering to diverse patient needs, including those with a family history of gastric cancer or related conditions like Gastroesophageal reflux disease and Gastroesophageal junction cancer.
The market addresses various risk factors and treatment modalities associated with gastric cancer, including Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) and smoking, both of which are significant contributors to the development of the disease. Advances in genetic modification techniques have led to the development of targeted therapies that aim to address specific molecular abnormalities driving gastric cancer progression. Oral drugs play a crucial role in treatment regimens, offering convenience and efficacy in managing the condition. However, protecting the stomach lining from adverse effects remains a priority in drug development.
