May 16, 2019 Off By BusinessWire

DUBLIN–(BUSINESS WIRE)–The “Global
Lung Cancer Drugs Market – Drivers, Restraints, Opportunities, Trends,
and Forecast up to 2025”
report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com’s
offering.

The Global Lung Cancer Drugs Market will grow at a CAGR of 13.6% during
the forecast period.

The market has witnessed steady growth in the past few years with the
introduction of novel products, which have augmented the acceptance of
immunotherapy drugs in the market. The market is fueled by upsurge in
the incidence of lung cancer cases across the globe – owing to
increasing diagnosis rate and mainly due to increasing tobacco
consumption, increase in the lung cancer treatment rates, increasing
rate of effective drug approvals as first-line therapies, strategic
deals to develop new products, increasing R&D spending, and rapid
industrialization leading to increased pollution.

The leading global pharmaceutical companies are focusing on product
approvals as first-line treatment therapy and combination treatment with
chemotherapy, collaborations, and regulatory submission of already
matured cancer treatments in the developing countries as a major
strategy to increase their revenue. Many of the global players are also
focusing on providing home infusion services in the developed markets
with secured and safe cold chain logistic infrastructure. This
Direct-to-Patient (DTP) strategy is also helping market players to
expand their patient volumes and thus the overall revenues globally.

The market generates the revenue from the key players operating in this
field and some of them include, F. Hoffmann-La Roche Ltd, Bristol-Myers
Squibb, Janssen, Amgen, AstraZeneca PLC, Pfizer, Inc., Eli Lilly &
Company Ltd, and Novartis AG.

According to analysis, North America accounted for the largest share of
the global lung cancer drugs market in 2018 and will retain a high
position during the forecast period 2019-2025. According to WHO, cancer
accounted for an estimated 9.6 million deaths in 2018 and the most
common cancer among all types is lung cancer (2.09 million cases). An
estimated 234,030 new cases of lung cancer were diagnosed in 2018,
representing about 13% of all cancer diagnoses in the country.

Europe is the second major shareholder of the global lung cancer drugs
market. There were an estimated 3.91 million new cases of cancer and
1.93 million deaths from cancer in 2018. Lung cancer is the third most
common cancer type of cancer (470,000) after the female breast cancer
and colorectal cancer (500,000). In the UK, around 46,700 new lung
cancer cases are recorded annually and it is the third most common
cancer. The Asia Pacific is expected to grow at high double digit CAGR
during the forecast period, owing to factors such as the increasing
prevalence of cancer cases, growing healthcare expenditure, and
increased healthcare awareness.

By Disease Type:

  • Small cell lung cancer (SCLC)
  • Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC)

The non-small cell lung cancer segment occupied the largest share in
2018 and is expected to grow at mid-double digit CAGR during the
forecast period. The increasing incidence and prevalence of non-small
cell lung cancer and rapid industrialization make the segment the
fastest growing during the forecast period 2019-2025.

By Molecule Type:

  • Small molecules
  • Biologics

In 2018, the small molecules segment occupied the largest share and
biologics is expected to grow at a high CAGR during the forecast period
due to increasing adoption of biologics, strong pipeline targeting
first-line treatments, and recent product approvals.

By Regions:

  • North America
  • Europe
  • APAC
  • RoW

North America is dominant in the global lung cancer drugs market
followed by Europe and Asia Pacific. The significant share of the North
America market comes from the US due to the availability of favourable
reimbursement policies.

Competitive Analysis

The global lung cancer drugs market has massive growth opportunities in
both developed and developing regions. Many companies are concentrating
on new approvals, collaborations, and development of new drugs to treat
lung cancer due to an increase in the incidence of cancer and the need
for advanced treatments.

For instance, the European Commission has approved brigatinib (Alunbrig)
developed by Takeda Pharmaceutical in November 2018 to treat adult
patients with ALK-positive non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) who were
previously treated with crizotinib (Xalkori). FDA approved durvalumab
(Imfinzi) developed by AstraZeneca Inc. in February 2018 for the
treatment of unresectable stage III non-small cell lung cancer whose
disease has not progressed following concurrent platinum-based
chemotherapy and radiation therapy.

In addition, other leading vendors are focusing on investing huge on
research and development activities to develop new products to obtain a
high share in the market.
