The Uicc (Union Internationale Contre le Cancer) is the only truly global and independent cancer organization. The Uicc holds a congress every four years, and the representation of speakers from countries outside the major pharmaceutical markets is substantial. This Brief discusses key issues raised at the Congress, including trends in the treatment and epidemiology of lung cancer, cancer in the developing world, tumor invasion and progression, and palliative care.Discussion of the smoking cessation data presented at the congressReview of data presented on cervical and hepatocellular cancer in the developing worldOverview of recent advances in the understanding of tumor invasion and progressionSummary of the hot topics in palliative care covered at the conferenceThe provisioning of cancer care in a developing country is a difficult task, especially considering the fragility of many of these countries’ economies and the desperate need for improvement of the countries’ infrastructure, which competes for funding. However, this provides opportunity for those manufacturers willing to adapt to the needs of high volume but low unit value markets.A number of tumors that are common in the developing markets, such as cervical cancer and hepatocellular carcinoma, could also see significant spending from some of the more affluent developing countries as they look towards more cost-effective prevention strategies.Evaluate the future impact of smoking cessation on the market for lung cancer therapeutics over the next twenty yearsIdentify the commercial potential of targeted therapies for the prevention of tumor invasion and the formation of metastasesUnderstand the needs of oncology care providers in developing countriesPredict trends in the clinical and commercial dynamic of palliative care products in the cancer market
