landscape
In recent years, cancer research has undergone significant transformation, marked by the introduction of numerous innovative therapies. With the emergence of advanced PD-1/PD-L1 and CTLA-4 immune checkpoint inhibitors, such as Keytruda and Tecentriq, there is a growing necessity to explore additional therapeutic options. This pursuit has led to the discovery of various immune checkpoint receptors, including LAG-3, TIGIT, and VISTA. Among these, LAG-3 stands out for its potential to revolutionize treatment approaches for cancer and other diseases.
The exploration of LAG-3 has catalyzed the development of new therapies, culminating in the approval of Opdualag, the world’s first LAG-3 therapy, by Bristol Myers Squibb in March 2022. This therapy is specifically indicated for patients aged 12 years and older with unresectable or metastatic melanoma, marking a significant milestone in cancer treatment.
The approval of Opdualag by the FDA, alongside endorsements from regulatory bodies such as the UK’s MHRA, Australia’s TGA, Singapore’s Health Sciences Authority, and Brazil’s Agência Nacional de Vigilância Sanitária, represents a major breakthrough in cancer immunotherapy. As research progresses, it is expected that additional LAG-3 inhibitors will be launched for cancer treatment in the near future.
From a commercial standpoint, the global market for LAG-3 inhibitor therapy presents a wealth of opportunities for pharmaceutical and biotech companies. LAG-3 inhibitors can be leveraged for various conditions, including solid tumors, hematological malignancies, autoimmune disorders, and inflammatory diseases. Ongoing clinical trials indicate that LAG-3 inhibitors are primarily being evaluated in combination therapies, where they are tested in conjunction with other immune checkpoint inhibitors or chemotherapy.
In addition to these combination, studies suggest that LAG-3 inhibitors could be effective when used alongside other therapeutic interventions, such as therapeutic vaccines, oncolytic virus immunotherapy, radiotherapy, targeted therapies, nanotechnology, and alkaloid therapeutics. This potential for diverse applications could significantly enhance the market viability and clinical relevance of LAG-3 inhibitors across multiple disease contexts.
Several candidates for LAG-3 inhibitors have reached late-phase clinical trials, reflecting the rapid advancement in this field. Notable examples include Fianlimab, INCAGN02385, XmAb22841, HLX26, Relatlimab, RO7247669, AK129, and Sym022. This progress underscores the increasing momentum behind LAG-3 inhibitors and presents opportunities for pharmaceutical and biotech companies to contribute to this evolving landscape.
Key industry players, including Bristol Myers Squibb, Symphogen A/S, Hoffmann-La Roche, Immutep, invoX Pharma, Incyte Corporation, Regeneron Pharmaceuticals, and Merck, are instrumental in driving the development of LAG-3 inhibitors. Currently, the US market leads in terms of sales, research and development, and regulatory support for LAG-3 therapies. However, active research and development are also underway in countries like China and across Europe, indicating a global commitment to advancing LAG-3 inhibitors.
According to KuicK Research, the market value for LAG-3 inhibitors was approximately US$ 625 million in 2023. This figure is expected to soar, with projections suggesting that the global LAG-3 market could surpass billions in sales within the next 2 to 5 years. The successful launch of Opdualag has already generated over half a billion dollars in revenue within two years of its approval. Furthermore, Bristol Myers Squibb anticipates estimated sales of US$ 4 billion for Opdualag by 2029.
In summary, the development of LAG-3 inhibitors represents a promising frontier in cancer therapy. With a growing pipeline of candidates, expanding research efforts, and increasing commercial interest, the potential for LAG-3 therapies to transform cancer treatment is significant. As the field continues to evolve, it is poised to offer new hope for patients facing challenging diagnoses, underscoring the importance of ongoing innovation in immunotherapy.
