The report, Global Small Cell Lung Cancer Therapeutics Market 2015-2019, has been prepared based on an in-depth market analysis with inputs from industry experts. The report covers the Americas, and the APAC and EMEA regions; it also covers the Global Small Cell Lung Cancer Therapeutics market landscape and its growth prospects in the coming years.

The strategic alliances among vendors are an important trend being witnessed in the market. These are expected to give these market players a competitive edge over the others. The companies can leverage their strengths, which is expected to prove mutually beneficial.
According to the report, the high unmet need for appropriate drugs is one of the major factors propelling the growth of the market. Small cell lung cancer advances very fast, and the detection rate is low at the localized stage. Current treatment options cannot cure the disease; hence, the mortality rate is high. Therefore, drugs that cause disease remission in patients are expected to drive the growth of the market significantly.
Further, the report states that the high cost of treatments is a major factor that restricts the growth of the market. Drugs for treatment of the cancer are expensive and hence, get poor response from patients. Hospital costs add to the cost of treatment. The co-morbidities associated with small cell lung cancer also need to be treated, which increases the cost of treatment.
