Latin America’s multi-billion dollar pharmaceutical markets have attracted controversy related to intellectual property in recent times, but oncology remains a key growth area in the region. At a time when Latin American populations are aging and becoming wealthier, reforms in markets such as Colombia and Argentina bode well for future expansion. Despite economic and political problems in Brazil, healthcare entitlements continue to enable patients to access the latest innovations. In Mexico, certain privileged segments of the population are driving demand in oncology, despite the lackluster shape of the overall pharmaceutical market.
Due to the complex and bureaucratic nature of Latin American oncology markets, and the region’s unique challenges around geography, climate, and affordability, successful market access is difficult to achieve. This report fully explores the policy, pricing, and reimbursement environment for oncology drugs in four key markets, as well as the exceptional access mechanisms that manufacturers must navigate. A full review of evidentiary requirements and the latest trends in payer preferences further captures the opportunity in oncology in this dynamic region.
