BCMA Targeted Therapies, 2017-2030: Even Though Big Pharmaceutical Companies Dominate the Current Space, Several Start-Ups/Small Companies Have Emerged - Research and Markets

DUBLIN, Apr. 13, 2017 /PRNewswire/ --

Research and Markets has announced the addition of the "BCMA Targeted Therapies, 2017-2030" report to their offering.

The "BCMA Targeted Therapies, 2017-2030" report features an extensive study on the current market landscape of B-cell maturation antigen (BCMA) targeted therapies and offers a comprehensive discussion on the future potential of this market. With no commercial products, the market is still in its infancy.However, industry experts have pinned significant hopes on the novel technologies being developed by start-ups/small companies and the research being conducted at academic institutes.

B-cell maturation antigen (BCMA), an important biomarker of the B-cells, has emerged as a promising therapeutic target for the treatment of multiple myeloma and other hematological malignancies. The antigen is universally expressed on the surface of multiple myeloma cells. The research focus shifted towards BCMA targeted therapies in 2004, when the role of BCMA was first indicated in the progression of multiple myeloma. It is the second most common type (13%) of all hematological malignancies.

Results of preclinical and clinical studies have demonstrated the potential benefits of this class of therapies; the major highlight being their attractive safety profile. As more molecules undergo clinical validation and eventually get commercialized, we believe the overall interest will continue to rise. In fact, our promising outlook is backed by a strong belief that this novel class of therapies is likely to cater to the current unmet need where the existing treatment modalities are not efficient. The upside could be higher; however, it depends on a favorable market environment, reimbursement practices and regulatory regimes.

The prime target indication of these novel molecules is B-cell malignancies, specifically multiple myeloma. BCMA-specific therapies are anticipated to emerge as viable treatment options for such indications. Post initial research on such therapies, many players have entered into collaborations with other stakeholders to fund the clinical and commercial development of their products. Some clinical stage products that have emerged out of such collaborations include bb2121 (bluebird bio/Celgene) and BCMA-CART (Novartis/Abramson Cancer Center of the University of Pennsylvania).

The pipeline currently comprises of 23 molecules that are under development for the treatment of a variety of B-cell malignancies. One of the key objectives of this report was to understand the evolution of the current market and to quantify the opportunities laid down by the innovative BCMA targeted programs of both small and big pharma companies.
