Analyzed that the liver cancer market has high unmet needs in terms of both efficacy and safety. More than 90% of patients diagnosed with liver cancer are between 45 years and 85 years of age. Nexavar is the only available Food and Drug Association (FDA) approved treatment for advanced liver cancer patients. However, the median survival time in patients treated with Nexavar is only three months more than for patients treated with placebo. Moreover, Nexavar has a low safety profile. About 39% and 6% of Nexavar-treated patients reported grade 3 and grade 4 adverse reactions respectively. Therefore, the unmet need in the liver cancer market was valued at 56%. This is expected to decrease significantly between 2009 and 2016 due to the expected launch of many first-in-class and me-too drugs. The majority of the first-in-class drugs are for the early stages of liver cancer and therefore they are expected to treat patients for whom no treatment options currently exist.
