Market overview

The overall value of the market is expected to increase and the growth of the sector can be accredited to the various novel therapies, especially for squamous cell carcinoma that currently lacks any effective treatment method. Other prospects of the treatment including common genetic and molecular aberrations within these histologies, are being extensively researched. According to market experts, patients with squamos cell carcinoma are set to benefit from the crucial clinical treatments and second line therapies.

On the other hand, the non-squamous patients already have several histology specific therapies and mutation specific therapies that are already dominating the market. Improved second line treatment methods will create a competitive environment for those that exist. Alimta and Tarceva are however, expected to fight for their dominance and create competition for the new entrants who have currently shown only minor improvements in safety and efficiency of their treatments.

Despite such growth opportunities and identification of several molecular targets, most products still remain in the early stage of development. The market will however, continue to grow towards personalized medicine through 2019, which would give birth to a fragmented market. Of the two players, Alimta and Tarceva even Avastin will also maintain a steady uptake.

The new emerging markets of non-small lung cancer treatment have increased the penetration of the available drug treatments and some of the big players of the market are AstraZeneca’s Roche’s and Merck’s KGaA’s are the main driving force of the market.
