Cancer Vaccines Market Seen Growing 36% Through 2036 as US Holds 87% Share

1 articles · Updated · PR Newswire · Sep 21

Summary

  • DelveInsight projects the cancer therapeutic vaccines market to expand 36% from 2026 to 2036, after reaching about $335 million across the US, EU4, UK and Japan in 2025.
  • Rising cancer incidence, broader treatment access and newer platforms—especially personalized and mRNA vaccines—are expected to drive demand across melanoma, NSCLC, bladder, prostate, breast and pancreatic cancers.
  • The US accounted for 87% of the seven-market total in 2025, while prostate cancer had the largest target population at roughly 2.8 million cases and is expected to represent about 18% of the market by 2036.
  • Pipeline momentum is centered on candidates including OSE-2101, Merck and Moderna's intismeran autogene, IO Biotech's IO102-IO103, Sellas' galinpepimut-S and BioNTech's BNT113, with combination use alongside PD-1/PD-L1 drugs increasingly shaping development.
  • The report says the field is moving from experimental immunotherapy toward a broader commercial opportunity, though developers still face a key hurdle in turning immune responses into consistent late-stage clinical benefits.
