Extensive Stage Small Cell Lung Cancer Market - A Global and Regional Analysis: Focus on Epidemiology, Product, and Region - Analysis and Forecast, 2022-2032
Global Extensive Stage Small Cell Lung Cancer Market Overview
Extensive stage small cell lung cancer is extremely aggressive sub-type of small cell lung cancer. Small cell lung itself is a sub-type of lung cancer which accounts for less than 20% cases. The treatment of extensive stage small cell lung cancer has been extremely challenging owing to poor survival rate of the patients. The median overall survival reported among the extensive stage small cell lung cancer patients has been slightly above a year while the overall progression free survival is reported to be of six months. Before the emergence of immune checkpoint inhibitors, traditional chemotherapy which included etoposide in combination with platinum (cisplatin or carboplatin) were the treatment mainstay however since the approval of immune checkpoint inhibitors; these have been included in the standard treatment regimen along with chemotherapy.
The Growing Prevalence of Extensive Stage Small Cell Lung Cnacer
The prevalence of extensive stage small lung cancer is estimated to increase in five of the seven major markets included in the study. Geographically, the U.S. remains at the top with an estimated prevalence for 2021 of more than 47,000 patients followed by the U.K. with over 8,500 patients. The prevalence is forecasted to be growing at a CAGR of 2.61% and 1.61% respectively for the U.S. and the U.K for the period 2022-2032.
Competitive Landscape
The current global extensive stage small cell lung cancer market has two approved immune checkpoint inhibitors namely Imfinzi (Durvalumab) from AstraZeneca PLC and Tecentriq (Atezolizumab) from F. Hoffmann La-Roche Ltd. Zepzelca (Lurbinectedine) from Jazz Pharmaceuticals Plc and Cosela (Trilaciclib) from G1 Therapeutics Inc. are other two products approved for the treatment of extensive stage small cell lung cancer patients.
Since, the introduction of immune checkpoint inhibitors to the extensive stage small cell lung cancer treatment, the competition in the global extensive stage small cell lung cancer market has significantly increased. F. Hoffmann La-Roche Ltd. and AstraZeneca Plc are the leading players among the companies having immune checkpoint inhibitor portfolio in the global extensive stage small cell lung cancer market. The companies having immune checkpoint inhibitors under clinical development have also added extensive stage small cell lung cancer treatment to their portfolio.
Currently there are four products available in the market which are patented. The chemotherapeutic products which constituted the standard of care have all become generic. There is a rich clinical pipeline of extensive stage small cell lung cancer maket with dominance of immune checkpoint inhibitors along with bispecific antibodies.
