Global Lung Cancer Therapeutics Market Size (2023 to 2028)

The global lung cancer therapeutics market is estimated to be worth USD 10.12 billion by 2028 and USD 7.31 billion in 2023, growing at a CAGR of 6.7% during the forecast period.

MARKET DRIVERS:

The growing patient population of lung cancer worldwide majorly propels the growth of the lung cancer therapeutics market. According to the American Cancer Society, an estimated 236,740 people from the United States were diagnosed with lung cancer in 2022. Out of which, 130,180 people are expected to die. Lung cancer is the second most detected and has the highest death rate of all cancers in both men and women. Cigarette smoking is the projecting cause of lung cancer and is a malignant tumor regarded as an uninhibited growth of cell tissues in the lung. As a result, lung cancer declines the lung's capability to deliver oxygen to the bloodstream. Some key indications of lung cancer include appetite loss, wheezing, weight loss, coughing, mucus, shortness of breath, and chest pain.

The growing aging population worldwide further contributes to the growth of the lung cancer therapeutics market. The population is aging rapidly worldwide. WHO says the number of people of age of 60 years and above is expected to reach 1.4 billion by 2030 and 2.1 billion by 2050. The risk of diagnosing with lung cancer increases with the growing age. Hence, the growing aging population worldwide is expected to result in an increasing number of lung cancer patients and drive the growth of the lung cancer therapeutics market.

The growing number of improvements in diagnostic techniques, such as molecular diagnostics, genetic testing, and biomarker identification, the development of targeted therapies and personalized medicine approaches and the growing healthcare expenditure in developing countries accelerate the lung cancer therapeutics market growth. The introduction of superior-priced drugs and new advanced radiation therapies promote the market’s growth rate. Novel and safer therapies can offer growth opportunities to market participants in the coming days. The growing initiatives and investments by the governments to develop healthcare infrastructure and offer quality treatment services, rising awareness of the available treatment options to cure lung cancer among people, growing disposable income, ongoing R&D activities to develop new technologies and the emergence of the latest technology in radiation therapies boost the growth rate of the lung cancer therapeutics market.

MARKET RESTRAINTS:

However, the high costs associated with installing and maintaining the medical equipment used to treat types of lung cancer to improve accurate results is one of the key factors hampering the growth rate of the global lung cancer therapeutics market. In addition, a shortage of skilled personnel, lack of technical expertise to manage the real-time applications, and lack of standardization further inhibit the growth rate of the global lung cancer therapeutics market.

Impact of COVID-19 on the global lung cancer therapeutics market:

The COVID-19 outbreak has disrupted the mental and physical health of patients with lung cancer. Moreover, lung cancer patients are at higher risk for this infectious disease. During the lockdown restrictions, the doctors treated only the emergency cases, whereas the remaining treatment or diagnosis for the cancer was postponed. With the slight relaxation by the government across the world, the demand for the market surges continuously. Maintaining social distancing and wearing masks are major regulations to prevent the spread of coronavirus. By following these measures, all the treatment services were resumed. As COVID-19 is attacking severely with lung cancer people, hospitals manage to take the utmost care. However, owing to the decreasing number of COVID-19 cases, the treatment procedures for lung cancer patients are expected to pick up. Therefore, the market for lung cancer therapeutics is expected to experience a quick recovery and register a healthy CAGR during the forecast period.
