Cancer Biological Therapy Industry Viewpoint
Immunization was discovered more than 200 years ago, that marks the beginning of biological therapy. Centuries ago, a surgeon in New York, William Coley, started using biological therapy to treat cancer patients. However, some people appeared to enter remission after developing certain bacterial infections. He then injected cancer patients with live bacteria, and later with filtered toxins. This method of treatment known as Coley's toxins was used for decades. Further, Paul Ehrlich, won Nobel Prize in 1908, for postulating that the surfaces of cells carried, side chains or receptor molecules. According to him, antibodies attached to the side chains caused the release of antitoxins. He further worked on developing antibodies that could target invaders. Later, the 1980s witnessed encouraging results of interferon usage to treat hairy-cell leukemia, a rare blood disorder. The FDA approved interferon used in this disease and was further used in the treatment of AIDS-related Kaposi's sarcoma, chronic myelogenous leukemia as well as genital warts.
Recently, Steven Rosenberg a researcher at the U.S. National Cancer Institute, discovered the ability of directing human body to discriminate between cancerous cells and healthy ones. In 1992, FDA approved genetically engineered IL-2 for use in advanced kidney cancer treatment. Further, clinical trials to determine the use of interleukin (IL-12) against AIDS and metastatic cancer were started in 1994. With the advent of technological advancement and better understanding of the biology of cancer cells, focus on development of biologic agents to control cell growth has increased in the recent years. Growing R&D investment and favorable government policies to support cancer treatment will drive cancer biological therapy industry growth in foreseeable future
