Market Overview

Lung cancer treatment encompasses therapeutic strategies and pharmaceutical interventions targeting malignant tumors in the lungs. Treatments include chemotherapy, targeted therapies, radiation, immunotherapy, and surgical resection, with an increasing emphasis on precision medicine and biomarker-driven therapies.

Key Developments

Recent years have seen notable developments:

• FDA approvals for targeted therapies like Tagrisso® (osimertinib) for EGFR-mutant NSCLC and Rybrevant® (amivantamab) for Exon 20 insertion mutations.
• Checkpoint inhibitors such as Keytruda® (pembrolizumab) and Tecentriq® (atezolizumab) are being integrated into earlier lines of therapy.
• Companion diagnostics and liquid biopsy platforms are reshaping early detection and personalized treatment decisions.

Market Drivers

1. Increasing Lung Cancer Prevalence

According to the World Health Organization, lung cancer remains the leading cause of cancer-related deaths globally, accounting for over 1.8 million deaths annually.

2. Precision Medicine & Biomarkers

Advancements in genetic profiling (EGFR, ALK, KRAS, ROS1, MET) are enabling the development of highly selective therapies, improving patient outcomes and reducing toxicity.

3. Immunotherapy Adoption

Checkpoint inhibitors are witnessing rapid adoption across multiple stages of NSCLC and SCLC. PD-1/PD-L1 expression testing is now a standard for treatment decision-making.

4. Government and Industry Collaborations

Initiatives such as the U.S. Cancer Moonshot, and Japan’s AMED funding for oncology research, are boosting R&D and accelerating approvals.

5. Expansion of Diagnostic Capabilities

Increased access to low-dose CT screening and next-generation sequencing (NGS) is enabling earlier detection and stratification of patients, especially in the U.S., Europe, and Japan.

U.S. and Japan Market Focus

The U.S. holds the largest share of the global market due to high prevalence, advanced healthcare infrastructure, favorable reimbursement, and aggressive R&D. Companies like Merck & Co., Bristol-Myers Squibb, and Amgen continue to lead in product development and market capture.

Japan is a major market with a strong pipeline focus on ALK inhibitors, third-generation EGFR inhibitors, and combination regimens. Regulatory flexibility by the PMDA and widespread adoption of genomic testing (via OncoGuide and FoundationOne) are driving innovation.

Pipeline Analysis

The clinical pipeline is robust with over 200 active trials in Phase II and III stages. Key pipeline candidates include:

• Datopotamab deruxtecan (Daiichi Sankyo/AstraZeneca)
• Bemarituzumab (Amgen)
• Tarlatamab (Amgen – for SCLC)
• Novel bispecific antibodies, KRAS G12C inhibitors, and TROP2-directed ADCs are gaining traction.

 Key Companies in the Lung Cancer Treatment Market

• Merck & Co.
• AstraZeneca
• Bristol-Myers Squibb
• Roche/Genentech
• Pfizer
• Novartis
• Amgen
• Johnson & Johnson
• Daiichi Sankyo
• Sanofi
