The market witnessed a slight decline in the sales of
ALK inhibitors in 2020 as several scheduled treatments were either delayed or postponed. Besides, the high incidence of COVID-19 in the second wave has limited the movement of people, which has disrupted the supply chain and logistic operations. These factors are expected to hinder the growth of the ALK inhibitors market to some extent during the forecast period.
The market is expected to be driven by factors such as the high target affinity and specificity of ALK inhibitors, the high prevalence of lung cancer, and the presence of patient assistance programs.
