Key Highlights

  • Esophageal cancer occurs in the esophagus - a long hollow muscular tube that transports food from the neck to the stomach. Esophageal cancer, also known as esophagus cancer, develops in the cells that line the esophagus and occurs when a malignant tumor arises in the esophagus lining.
  • Esophageal malignancies are often discovered as a result of a person’s indications or symptoms. Examinations, testing, and a biopsy (a sample of esophageal cells) will be required to confirm the diagnosis if esophageal cancer is suspected. If cancer is discovered, more tests will be performed to establish the stage of the malignancy. The gold standard for identifying esophageal cancer is Gastroscopy.
  • Histologically, there are two forms of primary esophageal cancer: squamous cell carcinoma and adenocarcinoma; small cell carcinoma is an uncommon type of Esophageal Cancer. These several types of cancer arise in various types of cells in the esophagus. They evolve in distinct ways, necessitating therapeutic techniques tailored to each individual.
  • The staging system most often used for esophageal cancer is the American Joint Committee on Cancer (AJCC) TNM system, which is based on three key pieces of information, that is the extent of the tumor (T), spread to nearby lymph nodes (N) and spread (metastasis) to distant sites (M).
  • The exact cause of esophageal cancer is unknown; however, it is thought to be related to abnormalities (mutations) in the DNA of esophageal cells. The DNA of Esophageal Cancer cells frequently shows changes in many different genes; however, it is unclear if specific gene changes can be found in all Esophageal Cancers.
  • In 2023, the market size of esophageal cancer was highest in the US, accounting for approximately USD 450 million, which is further expected to increase by 2034.
  • In March 2021, the FDA approved KEYTRUDA (pembrolizumab) for use in combination with platinum and fluoropyrimidine-based chemotherapy for patients with metastatic or locally advanced esophageal or gastroesophageal carcinoma who are ineligible for surgical resection or definitive chemoradiation.
  • Esophageal cancer, a relatively uncommon cancer, has very limited information and guidance available, with few opportunities for people to share experiences. This ends up leading to a lack of awareness about the disease. Its symptoms are also often mild until the cancer advances, and symptoms can be easily confused with other illnesses and digestive problems.
  • The emerging pipeline for esophageal cancer patients consists of drugs in different lines of therapies, adjuvant, and neoadjuvant settings. It is estimated that potential drugs that can significantly change the market during the forecast period include zanidatamab, sintilimab, tislelizumab, and sotigalimab. These drugs are in the late stages of clinical development, and other players are evaluating their potential candidates in different stages of clinical development.

Marketed Therapies

CYRAMZA (ramucirumab): Eli Lilly and Company

CYRAMZA, as a single agent or in combination with paclitaxel, is indicated for the treatment of patients with advanced or metastatic, gastric or gastroesophageal junction (GEJ) adenocarcinoma with disease progression on or after prior fluoropyrimidine- or platinum-containing chemotherapy. The recommended dosage of CYRAMZA as a single agent or combined with weekly paclitaxel is 8 mg/kg every 2 weeks, administered by IV infusion over 60 min. Ramucirumab is a VEGFR2 antagonist that binds VEGFR2 explicitly and blocks the binding of VEGFR ligands, VEGF-A, VEGF-C, and VEGF-D. As a result, ramucirumab inhibits ligand-stimulated activation of VEGFR2, thereby inhibiting ligand-induced proliferation and migration of human endothelial cells.

VITRAKVI (larotrectinib): Bayer

VITRAKVI (larotrectinib) is an oral TRK inhibitor for the treatment of adult and pediatric patients with solid tumors with an NTRK gene fusion without a known acquired resistance mutation that is either metastatic or where surgical resection will likely result in severe morbidity and have no satisfactory alternative treatments or have progressed following treatment. It is indicated for the treatment of adult and pediatric patients with solid tumors that have a neurotrophic receptor tyrosine kinase (NTRK) gene fusion without a known acquired resistance mutation, are metastatic or where surgical resection is likely to result in severe morbidity, and have no satisfactory alternative treatments or that have progressed following treatment.

Note: Detailed current therapies assessment will be provided in the full report of esophageal cancer…

Emerging Therapies

Zanidatamab: Zymeworks

Zanidatamab is given with chemotherapy plus or minus Tislelizumab as a combination therapy in HER2-Expressing Gastrointestinal (GI) Cancers, including Gastroesophageal Adenocarcinoma (GEA). Zanidatamab is given along with oxaliplatin (CAPOX) or 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) and cisplatin (FP) with or without tislelizumab. This emerging asset has a novel mechanism of action. It uses biparatropic binding as it targets two HER2 epitopes. The drug has also received fast-track designation in combination with SoC chemotherapy for first-line Gastroesophageal Adenocarcinoma. As far as safety is concerned, no severe treatment-related adverse events (TRAE) were observed. The most common Grade =3 TRAE was diarrhea which was manageable in the outpatient setting.

Sintilimab: Innovent Biologics

Sintilimab is an investigational PD-1 inhibitor developed by Innovent and Eli Lilly. The drug is currently in the Phase III stage of clinical development in combination with chemotherapy as first-line treatment in subjects with unresectable, locally advanced recurrent or metastatic esophageal squamous cell carcinoma. It is a first-line treatment option with cisplatin + paclitaxel or cisplatin + fluorouracil regimen for patients with unresectable, locally advanced recurrent or metastatic esophageal squamous cell carcinoma, as per the clinical assessment of sintilimab, a 12-month overall survival of 64% was found as compared to the 88% overall survival rate of zanidatamab. The Objective Response Rate (ORR) was also slightly lesser than zanidatamab. The safety profile of Sinitilimab was not as good as zanidatamab. A decrease in neutrophil count, WBCs, and hypokalemia was observed.

Esophageal Cancer Market Outlook

The therapies used for esophageal cancer include chemotherapy, targeted therapy, and immunotherapy. Chemotherapy uses medications to eradicate cancer cells, often by preventing cancer cells from growing, dividing, and proliferating. Targeted therapy for esophageal cancer includes HER2-targeted therapy and anti-angiogenesis therapy.

A chemotherapy regimen, or schedule, typically consists of a predetermined number of cycles administered over a predetermined period. A patient may be administered one medicine at a time or a mixture of drugs simultaneously. As previously stated, chemotherapy and radiation therapy are frequently used concurrently to treat esophageal cancer, a procedure known as chemoradiotherapy. Immunotherapy uses the body’s natural defenses to fight cancer by improving your immune system’s ability to attack cancer cells.

Two types of immunotherapy drugs are approved to treat adenocarcinoma and squamous cell carcinoma of the esophagus and the gastroesophageal junction. This cancer grows where the stomach and esophagus meet. Pembrolizumab (KEYTRUDA) and nivolumab (OPDIVO) are both checkpoint inhibitors that target the PD-1/PD-L1 pathway.

As few potential therapies are being investigated to manage esophageal cancer, predicting that the treatment space will experience significant reconstitution during 2024-2034 is safe.

Esophageal Cancer Disease Understanding and Treatment

Esophageal Cancer Overview

Esophageal cancer develops when cancer cells form in the esophagus, a tube-like tissue that connects the throat and stomach. The esophagus transports food from the mouth to the stomach. The cancer begins in the esophagus’s inner layer and can spread to other layers of the esophagus and other organs of the body (metastasis).

Typically, symptoms of esophageal cancer do not appear until the tumor has grown large enough to impede eating, swallowing, or digesting food. The most common symptom of esophageal cancer is difficulty swallowing, particularly a sensation that food is lodged in the throat; in some individuals, choking on food occurs. These symptoms develop with time, with greater discomfort while swallowing as the esophagus narrows due to cancer growth.

Esophageal Cancer Diagnosis

Esophageal malignancies are often discovered by indications or symptoms. Exams, testing, and a biopsy (a sample of esophageal cells) will be required to confirm the diagnosis; if cancer is identified, more tests will help establish the extent (stage). When diagnosed late, esophageal cancer has a terrible prognosis; however, if diagnosed early, curative therapy is feasible. Before symptoms cause individuals to seek medical assistance, the condition slowly advances. Effective presymptomatic screening procedures may enhance disease outcomes. Recent research has shed light on the early detection of esophageal cancer using blood testing, sophisticated endoscopic imaging, and artificial intelligence.

Esophageal Cancer Treatment

Everyone who has esophageal cancer receives some form of therapy. Several factors, including personal preferences, cancer stage, and overall health, determine the appropriate course of therapy for each patient. Many medical professionals regularly collaborate in cancer care to construct a patient’s comprehensive treatment plan, including various treatments.

Esophagectomy is the principal treatment for early-stage esophageal cancer, albeit its precise significance in superficial (T1A) cancers is still unclear, given the introduction of endoscopic mucosal therapy. A multimodal strategy for treating locally advanced cancers, comprising neoadjuvant chemotherapy or combination chemoradiotherapy (CRT) followed by surgery, is strongly recommended.

The cornerstone of contemporary esophageal cancer management is preoperative assessment. Preoperative staging accuracy is critical since the tumor board’s decisions on the use of multimodal therapy will be dependent on the precision and specifics of the clinical staging evaluation. Upper endoscopy, high-resolution contrast CT scan, FDG-PET scan, and EUS are all part of the standardized evaluation of a patient undergoing curative treatment for early-stage or advanced esophageal cancer.

Doctors typically recommend combining radiation treatment, chemotherapy, and surgery for a tumor that has not spread beyond the esophagus and lymph nodes. Locally advanced esophageal cancer is usually treated with radiation treatment, chemotherapy, and surgery. Radiation treatment and chemotherapy are often combined in “chemoradiotherapy.” Radiation treatment, chemotherapy, and other drug-based therapies are commonly used to treat metastatic esophageal cancer.

Esophageal Cancer Epidemiology

The Esophageal Cancer epidemiology chapter in the report provides historical as well as forecasted epidemiology segmented by total diagnosed incident cases, age-specific cases, histology-specific cases, gender-specific cases, mutation-specific cases, stage-specific cases and line wise treated cases of esophageal cancer in the United States, EU4 countries (Germany, France, Italy, Spain) and the United Kingdom, and Japan from 2020 to 2034.
  • The total diagnosed incident cases of esophageal cancer in the US comprised ~21,000 cases in 2023 and are projected to increase by 2034 at a CAGR of 1.9%, accounting for the second-highest diagnosed incident cases in the 7MM.
  • In 2023, as per the age-specific cases, the 65 and above segment accounted for the highest number of cases of esophageal cancer. In contrast, the < 45 age group accounted for the least number of cases in the United States.
  • In the United States, ~16,000 cases of esophageal cancer were found in case of males, whereas females accounted for ~4,000 cases of esophageal cancer in 2023.
  • As per the Histology-specific incident cases of esophageal cancer, non-squamous esophageal cancer cases accounted for ~7,500 cases of esophageal cancer, whereas ~3,000 cases of squamous esophageal cancer were found in 2023 in the United Kingdom.

Qualitative Analysis

We perform Qualitative and Market Intelligence analysis using various approaches, such as SWOT analysis and Conjoint Analysis. In the SWOT analysis, strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats in terms of disease diagnosis, patient awareness, patient burden, competitive landscape, cost-effectiveness, and geographical accessibility of therapies are provided. These pointers are based on the Analyst’s discretion and assessment of the patient burden, cost analysis, and existing and evolving treatment landscape.

Conjoint Analysis analyzes multiple approved and emerging therapies based on relevant attributes such as safety, efficacy, frequency of administration, designation, route of administration, and order of entry. Scoring is given based on these parameters to analyze the effectiveness of therapy.

In efficacy, the trial’s primary and secondary outcome measures are evaluated; for instance, in trials for Esophageal Cancer, important primary endpoints are overall survival rate, event-free survival, progression free survival, etc. Based on these parameters, the overall efficacy is evaluated.

Further, the therapies’ safety is evaluated wherein the acceptability, tolerability, and adverse events are majorly observed, and it sets a clear understanding of the side effects posed by the drug in the trials. In addition, the scoring is also based on the route of administration, order of entry and designation, probability of success, and the addressable patient pool for each therapy. According to these parameters, a final weightage score is decided, based on which the emerging therapies are ranked.

Market Access and Reimbursement

Because newly authorized drugs are often expensive, some patients escape receiving proper treatment or use off-label, less expensive prescriptions. Reimbursement plays a critical role in how innovative treatments can enter the market. The cost of the medicine, compared to the benefit it provides to patients who are being treated, sometimes determines whether or not it will be reimbursed. Regulatory status, target population size, the setting of treatment, unmet needs, the number of incremental benefit claims, and prices can all affect market access and reimbursement possibilities.

The report further provides detailed insights on the country-wise accessibility and reimbursement scenarios, cost-effectiveness scenario of approved therapies, programs making accessibility easier and out-of-pocket costs more affordable, insights on patients insured under federal or state government prescription drug programs, etc.
