Pembrolizumab, also known as PD-1 inhibitor, is an immunotherapy drug used to treat tumors. It achieves the goal of treating tumors by blocking the PD-1 signaling pathway, reactivating T cells, and attacking tumor cells.
Overview of Market Development and Analysis of Segmented Markets
With the advancement of technology and the improvement of medical standards, the global market for pembrolizumab is experiencing rapid growth. According to research data from Beizhes, the global market revenue for pembrolizumab was $20.19 billion in 2023. In the coming years, with the continuous innovation of technology in the medical field and the continuous pursuit of improving quality of life and extending lifespan by users, the market will continue to expand rapidly. It is expected that by 2025, the global market revenue for pembrolizumab will increase to $22.89 billion.
From the perspective of product types, pembrolizumab can be divided into two categories: humanized and fully humanized, depending on the source of the drug and the production method. Humanized antibodies are produced by implanting human genes into mice using transgenic technology and cultivating them to produce human-mouse chimeric antibodies; Fully humanized antibodies are produced by implanting human genes into insect cells through genetic engineering technology and then cultivating insect cells to produce fully humanized antibodies.
In terms of application, pembrolizumab is mainly used to treat serious diseases such as melanoma, non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), and head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC). In these fields, pembrolizumab has shown significant therapeutic effects and broad application prospects.
