Breast cancer is the most prevalent malignancy in women in China. Chemotherapy was the mainstay of treatment, but China now has access to several cutting-edge premium-priced targeted therapies (e.g., pertuzumab [Roche’s Perjeta], ado-trastuzumab emtansine [Roche’s Kadcyla]). The inclusion of these therapies in the National Reimbursement Drug List (NRDL) has improved drug-treatment rates for breast cancer in China and led to significant market growth. During the forecast period, we anticipate that newer treatment options will be introduced there, fueling further market expansion. In this report, we assess how clinical and nonclinical factors—price dynamics, inclusion in the NRDL—will influence the launch and uptake of new therapies for breast cancer during the forecast period. Understanding the impact of these intersecting factors will be key to the success of current and future players in this burgeoning pharmaceutical market.
