Liquid Biopsy Market: Current Analysis and Forecast (2021-2027)

Report Description

Liquid Biopsy Market was valued at ~US$ 1 billion in 2020 and is expected to grow at a CAGR of ~20% over the forecast period (2021-2027). Liquid biopsy is a non-invasive procedure which enables doctors to identify the information regarding the tumor using a blood sample. This technique is mainly used to diagnose chronic diseases such as cancer. It is also used to monitor the effect of treatment on cancer patients’ multiple times. The liquid biopsy will take a prominent position for cancer-related probe and investigation. The liquid biopsy is rapidly substituting conventional tumor biopsies. These are developed out of the need to acquire the most amount of molecular information about cancer. This cancer information is obtained with the least amount of surgical invasion. Furthermore, the clinical trials for the development of these tests have given positive results and have led to larger scaled clinical trials demonstrating efficacy.

The incidence rates of cancer remain highest in the more-developed regions; however, the mortality is relatively higher in the less-developed countries due to limited access to treatment facilities and lack of awareness regarding the benefits of early detection. Lung cancer, colorectal cancer, breast cancer, and prostate cancer account for the majority of cancer cases. Lung cancer is the leading cause of death among all cancers. Similarly, breast cancer is the second-most common type of cancer globally and is also the most common cause of cancer-related deaths in women.

Liquid biopsy holds several benefits over traditional cancer diagnostics techniques—reduced cost, early prognosis, therapy monitoring, detection of tumor heterogeneity, acquired drug resistance, and patient comfort (by eliminating the need for surgery).

In April 2017, Menarini Silicon Biosystems (Italy), Inc. acquired Janssen Diagnostics, LLC. (US). This acquisition of Janssen Diagnostics’ business related to CELLSEARCH Circulating Tumor Cell System. The acquisition marks Menarini-Silicon Biosystems’ first entry into the US diagnostics market.
