F. Hoffmann-La Roche Ltd (Switzerland), Novartis AG (Switzerland), Pfizer (US), Merck & Co., Inc.

Despite these drivers, poor efficacy, cure rates and side effects of present treatment, high failure rates of lung transplant surgeries, high malignant nature and faster growth of lung cancer, poor life expectancy and quality of life of patients undergoing lung cancer treatment, and scarcity of lung organ and long waiting lines are expected to decline the market growth.
