• A monoclonal antibody for non-small-cell lung cancer that blocks a signaling pathway allowing for immune responses that can recognize and destroy cancer cells;
• A medicine that targets and disrupts a signaling pathway associated with tumor growth in stomach cancer.
The development of new therapies would not be possible without the patients who volunteer to participate in clinical trials. Currently, there are 3,137 active clinical trials for cancer in the United States. Of those, 1,824 are now seeking volunteers to participate or have not yet started recruiting patients; the other 1,313 are ongoing but are not currently recruiting new patients.*
The progress made against cancer has resulted in better treatments that help extend lives, improve patients’ quality of life, and increase productivity contributing to economic growth. The hundreds of medicines being developed are our best hope for continuing that progress and lessening the burden of cancer. However, researching and developing new medicines remains a risky investment and a lengthy process. On average, it costs $1.2 billion and takes between 10–15 Medicines and Vaccines in years to bring a new, effective medicine to patients. Despite Development to Treat Cancer those risks, America’s biopharmaceutical research companies are continuing their efforts to develop effective new therapies Many of the medicines in the pipeline today are using for the prevention and treatment of cancer. novel approaches to attack cancer at the molecular level. Approximately 80 percent of cancer pipeline drugs are potentially fi rst-in-class treatments, according to the Tufts Center for the Study of Drug Development. Among the 771 medicines and vaccines in development are potential treatments for:
Colorectal Cancer—A humanized monoclonal antibody in development for metastatic colorectal cancer targets the cell surface protein “endosialin,” which is expressed on cells that are part of the tumor blood vessel structure. In preclinical studies, blocking the function of endosialin inhibited tumor growth and metastases.
Liver Cancer—A medicine in development for hepatocellular carcinoma (liver cancer) is a small molecule kinase inhibitor designed to selectively block transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-beta) signaling. The overexpression of TGF-beta in cells may enhance tumor growth and intensify metastases.

Blocking this pathway may allow for immune responses that recognize and destroy cancer cells. Another medicine which blocks the PD-1 receptor was “ ere is no question that when we talk recently approved by FDA for the treatment of malignant melanoma. about turning the tide against cancer, the most exciting opportunities, Pancreatic Cancer—In malignant solid tumors, oxygen levels are often low (called tumor hypoxia) relative to oxygen levels the new opportunities in fact, are in healthy tissue.

According to the ACS, the death rate from c-MET receptor. The HGF/c-Met signaling pathway is cancer has been steadily declining since the 1970s—declining more than 15 percent in the period from 2000-2011 alone. Five-year survival rates have increased 39 percent across all cancer types since 1975, with 2 out of 3 people diagnosed with cancer surviving at least fi ve years.
To sustain this progress in an environment of increasing pressure to contain health care costs, it is important to understand the valuable role new medicines play in improving patient outcomes. According to the ACS, 83 percent of survival gains are attributable to new treatments, including medicines. Some key advances in treatment include:
Personalized Medicines—Personalized medicines are therapeutics that are tailored to individual patients based on certain biologic and physiologic characteristics, such as genetic makeup. Patients can be identifi ed by their susceptibility to a certain disease or how they will likely respond to a specifi c therapy. By targeting therapies to patients most likely to benefi t, personalized medicines represent an important tool, as they may reduce the use of

Preventive Vaccines—Preventive vaccines target viruses or other infectious agents that can cause or contribute to the development of cancer. They are intended to prevent people from being infected with those viruses and agents so that unnecessary and often costly treatments or procedures in they do not develop cancer. For example, nearly all cases of patients who are unlikely to benefi t from them.

health care spending, cancer care represents an even smaller portion of costs.
• Spending on cancer medicines represents less than 1 percent of all health care spending for all diseases —$25.9 billion out of $2,800 billion.1
• Cancer medicines represent 20 percent of total spending on cancer care.2
• Between 1988 and 2000, 23 million years of life were saved due to cancer treatment advances. During that time, the United States realized $1.9 trillion in value due to improved productivity, extended life, and other factors resulting from improved cancer treatment.3
• On average, privately insured cancer patients pay out-of-pocket more than 20 percent of their total prescription drug costs, compared to 4 percent of inpatient hospital care and 7 percent of outpatient care.4

As scientists probe deeper into the causes and signs of cancer, the amount of information has increased exponentially, and making sense of all the data is a colossal undertaking that no single individual or institution can handle alone.
As a result, biopharmaceutical research companies are working together and with academic medical centers, government, and non-profi t organizations to share, organize and make sense of huge volumes of information. Below are examples of collaboration to advance progress against cancer.
The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) is a project to create a catalog (or atlas) of genomic changes associated with specifi c types of tumors to improve the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of cancer through the collection and analysis of tissue samples. Sponsored by the National Cancer Institute and the National Human Genome Research Institute, the TCGA network includes scientists, bioinformaticians, bioethicists, doctors, nurses, advocates, and others. TCGA is currently focused on 32 tumor types, including nine rare cancers.

RESEARCHING CANCER MEDICINES: SETBACKS AND STEPPING STONES With the many advances made in cancer research, there are also setbacks. Researchers are discovering that cancer is actually a set of more than 200 extremely complex diseases. Finding medicines that effectively treat each one is an immense challenge. The path to new oncology drugs is littered with so-called failures that do not make it through human clinical trials to approval. Although it is very disappointing to see a promising drug candidate cut from the pipeline, researchers learn from every setback and build upon each one of them to achieve success with future research and get effective therapies to patients. A new PhRMA report looks at setbacks and approvals in melanoma, brain cancer and lung cancer between 1998 and 2014: • Researchers have had recent successes in treating melanoma with the approval of seven new medicines, building on 96 medicines that didn’t make it through clinical trials. • There has been progress against some subsets of lung cancer, but the disease remains deadly. Ten lung cancer medicines were approved, while another 167 potential medicines failed in clinical testing. • Brain cancer continues to be a diffi cult cancer to treat despite concentrated research. There were three approvals and 75 unsuccessful candidate medicines. Although these setbacks are valuable to researchers, they are also an indication of the diffi culty in developing medicines to treat cancer. These setbacks serve as a reminder that to make progress, we need a public policy framework that supports the drug development process as well as the promising science so that important innovations can reach patients.

Defi nitions Application Submitted—An application for marketing has been submitted by the company to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA).
Breakthrough Therapy—Upon request by a sponsor, the FDA can grant this designation to expedite the development and review of a drug or biologic intended, alone or in combination with one or more other drugs, to treat a serious or life threatening disease or condition and preliminary clinical evidence indicates that it may demonstrate substan- tial improvement over existing therapies on one or more clinically-signi cant endpoints, such as substantial treatment e ects observed early in clinical development. If a drug or biologic is designated as a breakthrough therapy, the FDA will expedite the development and review. With this designation, all Fast Track features convey to the medicine.
Fast Track—Upon request by a sponsor, the FDA can grant this designation to facilitate the development and expedite the review of a drug or biologic to treat a serious condition and ll an unmet medical need. When considering a biopharmaceutical company’s request for Fast Track designation for an investigational drug or biologic, the FDA evaluates whether it will a ect factors such as survival, day-to-day functioning, or the likelihood that the disease, if left untreated, will progress from a less severe condition to a more serious one, and whether a condition can be adequately addressed by available therapy. With Fast Track designation, early and frequent communication between the FDA and the biopharmaceutical company is encouraged throughout the entire drug development and review process to help to quickly resolve any questions or issues that arise, potentially leading to an earlier approval and access by patients.
Orphan Designation—Upon request by a sponsor, the FDA can grant special status (“orphan status”) to a drug or biologic to treat a rare disease or condition. In order to receive an orphan designation, a qualifying drug or biologic must be intended for the treatment, diagnosis, or prevention of a rare disease or condition that affects fewer than 200,000 people in the United States, or that affects more than 200,000 persons but is not expected to recover the costs of its development and marketing.
Phase I—Researchers test the investigational drug or biologic in a small group of people, usually between 20 and 100 healthy adult volunteers, to evaluate its initial safety and tolerability profile, determine a safe dosage range, and identify potential side effects.
Phase II—The investigational drug or biologic is given to volunteer patients, usually between 100 and 500, to determine whether it is e ective, identify an optimal dose, and to further evaluate its short-term safety.
Phase III—The investigational drug or biologic is given to a larger, more diverse patient population, often involving between 1,000 and 5,000 patients (but sometimes many more), to generate statistically signi cant evidence to con rm its safety and e ectiveness. Phase III studies are the longest studies and usually take place in multiple sites around the world.
