The Chemotherapy-Induced Nausea and Vomiting (CINV) Market Expected to Exhibit a CAGR of 4.34% during 2025-2035, Impelled by Advancements in Antiemetic Therapies

February 27, 2025 | Healthcare

Chemotherapy-Induced Nausea and Vomiting (CINV) Market Outlook 2025-2035:

The 7 major Chemotherapy-Induced Nausea and Vomiting (CINV) markets are expected to exhibit a CAGR of 4.34% during 2025-2035. The market for Chemotherapy-Induced Nausea and Vomiting (CINV) is thriving due to the rapid acceptance of new antiemetic therapies that are user-friendly: long-acting oral formulations, transdermal patches, and subcutaneous injectables. All of these options offer relief to the patients while enhancing compliance with treatment regimens. Hence, advanced treatment options help in preventing really acute and delayed CINV therefore reducing hospitalization and IV infusion. With the introduction of neurokinin-1 (NK1) receptor antagonists and serotonin (5-HT3) receptor antagonists or cannabinoid-based therapies, nausea pathways in the body can be modulated to provide targeted relief, thus ensuring better symptomatic control with minimal side effects. The shift toward treatment combinations will boost overall efficacy and allow oncologists to tailor their antiemetic approaches to the patient's risk factors and chemotherapy type. Further, digital health solutions and a patient monitoring feedback mechanism will provide support for real-time tracking of symptoms for early intervention and improvement of patient outcomes and quality of life. Such technological advancements have thus made contemporary antiemetic therapy the preferred solution for both providers and patients so that interventions are less disruptive to cancer treatment rather than focusing on the patient's well-being.

Advances in Early Detection and Diagnostic Technologies: Driving the Chemotherapy-Induced Nausea and Vomiting (CINV) Market 

Modern diagnostic and treatment technologies are significantly transforming the Chemotherapy-Induced Nausea and Vomiting (CINV) market, improving symptom management and patient outcomes. Pharmacogenomic testing is emerging as a vital tool in predicting individual responses to antiemetic therapies, allowing for personalized treatment strategies based on genetic profiles. Artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) are being integrated into electronic health records (EHRs) to assess patient risk factors, optimize antiemetic regimens, and enhance predictive modeling for delayed or breakthrough CINV. AI-powered clinical decision support systems (CDSS) help oncologists refine treatment plans by analyzing patient histories and chemotherapy regimens, reducing the likelihood of treatment failure. Long-acting drug formulations, such as extended-release 5-HT3 receptor antagonists and transdermal NK1 receptor antagonists, offer sustained relief, minimizing the need for frequent dosing and improving adherence. Wearable biosensors and remote monitoring devices are enabling real-time tracking of nausea symptoms, hydration levels, and medication adherence, allowing for an early intervention and better disease management. Additionally, telemedicine and mobile health applications are expanding access to supportive care, enabling remote consultations, patient education, and symptom reporting, particularly for those undergoing outpatient chemotherapy. These advancements collectively contribute to enhanced CINV prevention, reduced hospital visits, and improved quality of life, driving growth in the global CINV market.

Development of Novel Therapies and Pharmacological Treatments: Contributing to Market Expansion

The Chemotherapy-Induced Nausea and Vomiting (CINV) market is expanding with the introduction of new therapies and advanced pharmacological treatments aimed at improving symptom management and patient outcomes. Next-generation antiemetics, including highly selective NK1 receptor antagonists, novel 5-HT3 receptor antagonists, and dopamine receptor modulators, are being developed to provide enhanced efficacy, longer duration of action, and reduced side effects, improving patient adherence and treatment success. Biological therapies, particularly monoclonal antibodies targeting neurokinin and serotonin pathways, are being explored for severe and refractory CINV cases, offering a new avenue for patients unresponsive to conventional antiemetics. Advancements in drug delivery systems, such as sustained-release injectables, transdermal patches, and orally disintegrating formulations, enhance drug bioavailability, ensuring consistent therapeutic effects while reducing dosing frequency. Additionally, cannabinoid-based therapies and novel gut-brain axis modulators are emerging as promising alternatives, helping manage nausea by targeting central and peripheral pathways. Combination therapies, integrating NK1 antagonists with corticosteroids or dopamine antagonists, are proving effective in addressing both acute and delayed phases of CINV, offering a comprehensive approach to symptom prevention. Precision medicine strategies, including pharmacogenomic testing, are enabling personalized antiemetic regimens based on genetic risk factors, optimizing patient responses. Meanwhile, digital health solutions, such as AI-powered symptom tracking apps and remote monitoring systems, are revolutionizing real-time management, improving patient engagement, and enabling proactive treatment adjustments. With continuous advancements in antiemetic drug development, precision medicine, and innovative delivery systems, the CINV market is poised for significant growth, enhancing both clinical outcomes and patient quality of life.

Marketed Therapies in Chemotherapy-Induced Nausea and Vomiting (CINV) Market

Varubi (Rolapitant): GlaxoSmithKline

Varubi (Rolapitant) is a selective neurokinin-1 (NK1) receptor antagonist used to prevent delayed-phase Chemotherapy-Induced Nausea and Vomiting (CINV). Unlike other NK1 antagonists, it has a long half-life (~180 hours), allowing for extended protection with a single dose in combination with 5-HT3 receptor antagonists and corticosteroids.

Akynzeo (Netupitant / Palonosetron): Helsinn

Akynzeo (Netupitant/Palonosetron) is a combination drug consisting of netupitant and palonosetron, designed in a fixed dose, and used for the prevention of Chemotherapy-Induced Nausea and Vomiting (CINV). It consists of netupitant, which is an NK1 receptor antagonist, and palonosetron, a 5-HT3 receptor antagonist, in order to have increased and continuing antiemetic coverage against both the acute and delayed phases of CINV. This dual mechanism blocks both the nausea and vomiting pathways in order to enhance patient comfort and adherence to chemotherapy.

Sustol (Granisetron): Heron Therapeutics

Sustol (Granisetron) is a long-lasting 5-HT3 receptor antagonizer, which is indicated for prevention against Chemotherapy-Induced Nausea and Vomiting (CINV) due to moderately or greatly emetogenic chemotherapy regimens. Its extended-release formulation provides prolonged antiemetic protection for up to five days, reducing the need for multiple doses and improving patient adherence to CINV management.

Emend (aprepitant): Merck & Co

Emend (aprepitant) is a neurokinin-1 receptor antagonist that helps to prevent the short and long term effects of Chemotherapy-Induced Nausea and Vomiting (CINV). It blocks the neurotransmitter substance P which is involved directly in the emetic response, thus enhancing the activity of commonly used antiemetics including 5-HT3 receptor antagonists and corticosteroids. Emend is available in oral and intravenous formulations, improving patient compliance and symptom control.

Emerging Therapies in Chemotherapy-Induced Nausea and Vomiting (CINV) Market

APD421: Acacia Pharma

APD421 (Amisulpride IV) is a dopamine D2/D3 receptor antagonist developed for preventing and treating Chemotherapy-Induced Nausea and Vomiting (CINV). It has shown efficacy in managing breakthrough and delayed CINV, particularly in patients unresponsive to standard antiemetics. APD421 enhances antiemetic regimens when combined with 5-HT3 and NK1 receptor antagonists.
