Cancer is one of the leading causes of death, worldwide. In 2020 alone, over 19 million new cases of the disease (affecting different organs) and close 10 million associated fatalities, were reported worldwide. Over the next couple of decades, experts believe that the global cancer burden is likely to increase by almost 50%. Currently, a variety of therapeutic measures are available for the treatment of different types of cancers; of these, surgery, chemotherapy, and radiation therapy, are considered the current standards of care.
However, the efficacy of the aforementioned procedures has been shown to be severely limited, especially in treating advanced-stage cancers that have metastasized beyond their respective points of origin.
Additionally, the non-specific and highly toxic nature of both chemotherapy and radiation therapy is known to significantly deteriorate quality of life.
Over the last couple of decades, several targeted, anti-cancer therapies have been developed, and many are already available in the market. Of these, immune checkpoint directed therapies, which are designed to prevent malignantly transformed cells from evading immune surveillance, have demonstrated a lot of potential in treating a variety of cancer types.
The programmed cell death protein 1 receptor (PD-1) receptor, and programmed death ligand 1 (PD-L1) are known to negatively regulate T-cell-mediated immune responses. Multiple studies have shown that the activation of PD-1 / PD-L1 signaling is a mechanism used by tumors to evade a T-cell based immunological response.
This led to the development of the hypothesis that PD-1 / PD-L1 blockade may prove to be an effective form of anti-cancer therapy that is capable of harnessing the key mediators of the adaptive human immune system. KEYTRUDA (pembrolizumab), the first PD-1 targeting anti-cancer therapy was approved by the FDA in September 2014 for the treatment of patients suffering from advanced / unresectable melanoma who were no longer responding to other forms of treatment. Later, in the same year, OPDIVO (nivolumab), another PD-1 targeting therapy, was approved by the FDA.
These immune checkpoint inhibitors soon demonstrated the fact that they were both viable and potent therapeutic options and had the ability to substantially prolong the lives of patients suffering from advanced stage tumors. As a result, till date, there are seven approved drugs against PD-1 and PD-L1, and several more under development.
Drug developers are now capitalizing on the success of PD-1 blockade in several different types of malignancies, and also researching alternative areas of application. Consequently, this field of research is abuzz with activity both at the clinical and preclinical levels. This report provides a deeper perspective on some of the recently published results from completed and ongoing clinical research activity.
Scope of the Report
-- The "Immune Checkpoint Inhibitors (PD-1 & PD-L1 Targeting Drugs):
Analysis of Clinical Trial Results" report provides detailed information
on the contemporary R&D efforts related to an important segment of the
immune checkpoint inhibitors market, specifically the drugs / drug
candidates that have been developed to target the PD-1 and PD-L1
molecules. It offers a technical perspective of the innovation in this
domain, in terms of products in the pipeline, clinical research
activity, and trend of scientific publications (focused on clinical
trial results). The information in this report has been presented across
two deliverables, featuring an interactive MS Excel sheet and a MS
PowerPoint pack, which summarizes the key takeaways from the project,
and insights drawn from the curated data.
-- Detailed summaries of published clinical research results, featuring key
insights related to completed and ongoing trials of PD-1 and PD-L1
inhibitors. For each trial, we have provided an elaborate [A] overview
(including details of the related publication, and names of the journal
and authors, trial ID, mentioned phase of development, sponsor(s),
target indications, important study-related dates and locations of
hospitals / centers involved), and also collated and presented
information on the [B] clinical study design (featuring study type,
primary purpose, total enrollment, allocation, intervention model, type
of masking used, among others, along with information on the participant
screening process, treatment plan and follow-up plan), [C] key research
outcomes (based on information available in the dedicated trial related
webpage), [D] reported results (segregated across both primary and
secondary endpoints, featuring important participant and key parameter
assessment related details, and key insights mentioned in the affiliated
publication(s)) and [E] treatment related adverse events (including both
treatment- and immune related events, segregated across different grades
of severity).
-- A review of the current market landscape of PD-1 & PD-L1 targeting
immune checkpoint therapies, providing information on phase of
development, type of molecule, biological target, and mechanism of
action. In addition, the section includes details on the key developers
of PD-1 / PD-L1 based drugs, along with information on their respective
year of establishment, company size, and location of headquarters.
-- A clinical trial analysis, offering information on trial registration
year, phase of development, enrolled patient population, study design,
key sponsors (and their respective collaborators), popular target
therapeutic area, and geography. The insights from this analysis are
organized to provide an informed perspective on the historical and

trial results that have been published in peer-reviewed, scientific
journals. The analysis highlights key trends observed across the
aforementioned articles, including those related to year of publication,
biological target, target therapeutic areas(s), key journals (in terms
