Cancer affects approximately 10 million people globally, with breast and lung cancer accounting for 25% of cancer incidences. Assuming over expression of Her2 is responsible for 25% of the breast cancer and lung cancer, and then the estimated market is about one million. The estimated price of Lapatinib, a small molecule tyrosine kinase inhibitor, is $5000/ dose (500mg) and the total market will be more than one trillion ($5000 * 365 * 1 million) dollars worldwide.
