The US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has approved an mRNA therapeutic cancer vaccine developed by China-based biotech WestGene. This decision makes the vaccine the world’s first approved mRNA therapeutic vaccine to treat Epstein Barr (EB)-virus-related cancers. The approval was based on results from investigator-initiated trials that evaluated the vaccine in patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) and natural killer T cell lymphoma. EB virus is a part of the herpesvirus family and spreads primarily through bodily fluids. The illness infects more than 90% of the global adult population but does not always lead to cancer, as detailed by Cancer Research UK. The virus has been linked with NPC, gastric cancer, lung cancer and other diseases. In a 10 May press release, WestGene highlighted liver cancer, oesophageal cancer, breast cancer and the aforementioned diseases as potential future indications for the vaccine. The Chinese company has a pipeline that includes four infectious disease vaccines, seven anti-tumour immunotherapies, and three gene editing treatments amongst other therapies.

Since its approval, other therapeutic cancer vaccines have entered the US market, with eight being available in the US, according to GlobalData. GlobalData is the parent company of Pharmaceutical Technology. In 2021, Pfizer and BioNTech gained the first-ever FDA approval for an mRNA vaccine with Comirnaty (BNT162b2) as a preventative measure against Covid-19. Since this milestone, several preventive and therapeutic mRNA vaccines have been in development for a wide range of conditions. Some pharmaceutical companies are using the mRNA approach to develop vaccines for other infectious diseases such as respiratory syncytial virus (RSV), Influenza A, Influenza B and cytomegalovirus while companies, including Moderna , Curevac , and Cartesian Therapeutics, are developing therapeutic mRNA vaccines for treating different cancers.

DUBLIN--( BUSINESS WIRE )--The "Prevention and Treatment of Prostate Cancer: Technologies and Global Markets" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering. The global market for prostate cancer care reached $35.3 billion in 2022. This market is expected to reach $56.4 billion by the end of 2028, growing at a CAGR of 8.3% from 2023 through 2028. As the second most diagnosed male cancer in the world, prostate cancer affects roughly 1.4 million people and kills more than 370,000 men each year, which represents about 4% of all cancer deaths worldwide. This cancer ranges from being a non-aggressive, slow-growing type that can do without treatment to an aggressive, fast-growing disease that needs intervention and timely treatment. Hence, early detection/screening, diagnosis and staging of prostate cancer are critical. The global market for prostate cancer screening and detection is projected to grow at a CAGR of 5.8% to reach $19.8 billion by the end of 2028. It is estimated that over 60% of age-eligible men remain unscreened for prostate cancer. A large, underserved population of unscreened and inadequately screened patients represents a significant opportunity for non-invasive biomarker tests in the prostate cancer screening market. The global market for prostate cancer pharmaceuticals was valued at $16.0 billion in 2022 and is expected to reach $29.6 billion by the end of 2028, at a CAGR of 11.0% during the forecast period. Continued incidence of prostate cancer, the world's growing elderly population, and increasing therapeutic innovations are key driving factors in the market for prostate cancer drugs. The direct cost for radical prostatectomy was estimated at $3.6 billion in 2022. This cost is expected to rise to $4.8 billion by the end of 2028. The growing popularity of robot-assisted laparoscopic prostatectomy (RALP) is expected to impact the overall radical prostatectomy market. Improved screening programs will result in an increase in radical prostatectomies, as this procedure is preferred in early detection stages. The radiotherapy device market is expected to grow as the incidence of prostate cancer worldwide continues to increase and better and more accurate imaging technologies combined with precise treatment strategies are developed. This market is expected to reach $2.2 billion by the end of 2028. This research study analyzes the state of prostate cancer care, including screening, detection and treatment, offers revenue forecasts, assesses future trends, and provides recommendations for the success of market participants. The scope of the study is global. This report estimates market data for 2022 (the base year) and provides forecasts for 2023 through 2028.
