lung cancer therapeutics market: Lung cancer or lung carcinoma is the disease characterized by the abnormal proliferation of tumour cells in the lung tissues. Lung cancer is classified into 3 types namely lung carcinoid tumour, small cell lung cancer, and non-small cell lung cell cancer. Common symptoms associated with the lung cancer include a cough, weight loss, shortness of breath, and chest pains. Smoking and prolonged use of tobacco are the common risk factors for the lung cancer. Lung cancer can be diagnosed by the biopsy performed by using CT-guidance or bronchoscopy. Lung cancer can be treated by radiotherapy, chemotherapy, and surgery.
Global Lung Cancer Therapeutics Market
Increasing pollution owing to rapid industrialization, a rise in the number of tobacco consumption and smoking population, growing government funding for the R&D activities, and rise in demand for targeted therapies are anticipated to fuel the growth of lung cancer therapeutics market. Moreover, innovation of newer radiotherapies, a launch of low priced generic drugs, and rise in prevalence of non-small cell lung cancer are expected to propel the lung cancer therapeutics market over the forecast period. However, stringent regulatory policies, patent expiry of lung cancer therapeutics, poor cancer diagnostics in underdeveloped countries, and adverse effects associated with the treatment might hamper the growth of lung cancer therapeutics market.
