Global neuroendocrine carcinoma therapeutics market is witnessing significant growth due to large number of marketed drugs and Phase III drugs. Neuroendocrine carcinoma is a tumor that begins in neuroendocrine cells and can spread, or metastasize, to other parts of the body. It starts in the hormone producing cells of the body’s neuroendocrine system. Neuroendocrine tumors can begin in many organs including, lungs, brain and gastrointestinal tract.
