Neuroendocrine carcinoma therapeutics to see strong growth to 2017

27 October 2011

The global neuroendocrine carcinoma therapeutics market was worth $91 million in 2010, and is forecast to grow at Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of 27.3% over the next seven years, to value $492 million by 2017, says a new report from GlobalData.

The high growth is primarily attributed to the advent of approved drugs Sutent (sunitinib), Afinitor (everolimus) from 2011 onwards in both the US and Europe and the promising drugs Avastin (bevacizumab) for gastrointestinal (GI) carcinoids and pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (NETs), pasireotide (SOM 230) and Somatuline Autogel/Depot only for GI carcinoids NETs which are expected to be launched in 2015. These factors will accelerate the growth of the neuroendocrine carcinoma therapeutics market.
