Quick Summary:
The global biomarker testing services market is undergoing considerable growth, stimulated by escalating investments in pharmaceutical research and development, as well as the burgeoning demand for precision medicine, particularly relative to cancer treatment. Furthermore, the increasing prevalence of infectious and chronic diseases has necessitated an expansion in biomarker testing services, further driving the growth of the market.
A persistently increasing number of clinical trials bolsters the demand for medicine discovery research activities, thereby encouraging the demand for biomarker testing. Increased FDA approval rates for medicine using biomarkers signifies a heightened recognition of their efficacy, accelerating the medicine approval process significantly. Furthermore, various initiatives launched by biopharmaceutical companies to enhance the rate of cancer diagnoses via biomarker testing are likely to spur market growth. Concurrently, the pervasiveness of cancer is augmenting the demand for targeted therapies that make use of biomarkers to gauge the efficacy of various drugs, thus driving the demand for biomarker testing services.
Overall, continuous advancements and the positive trends in biomarker testing services represent a significant market opportunity.
There has been a consistent rise in clinical trials during the last 5 years. For instance, according to ClinicalTrials.gov, more than 262,298 trials were registered in 2018, whereas as of September 2022, above 399,518 trials were registered. Clinical trials are expected to improve in the coming years owing to the increase in funding for clinical research. This is expected to boost demand for medicine discovery research activities and thus support demand for biomarker testing in the post-pandemic period.
The FDA approval rate for medicines through the use of biomarkers has improved, over the years. For instance, in 2016, more than 26 trials were approved by the FDA that used biomarkers for medicine testing, whereas, in 2019, 36 trials were approved by the FDA that used biomarkers for medical testing. Clinical trials now require biomarker-related data for medicine approvals, as it provides information about the action of medicine in the body and thus speeds up the medicine approval process. This is expected to improve demand for biomarker testing during the forecast period.
Various biopharmaceutical companies are taking initiatives to improve the diagnosis rate of the cancer patient through biomarker testing. For instance, in April 2021, a biopharmaceutical company, Amgen launched the Biomarker Assist Program. As per this program, patients with metastatic (stage IV) non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) were provided biomarker testing, to check the presence of oncogene biomarkers, which help in targeted therapies. Such initiatives by the market players are likely to support the market's growth.
According to the IQVIA, report on oncology trends, clinical trials for cancer have been increasing for the last 10 years. For instance, in 2011, 1,242 trials were registered for cancer, and as of 2021, 2,335 trials were registered for cancer. The number of clinical trials intended for cancer is expected to rise even further owing to the growing prevalence of the disease. There is an increasing demand for targeted therapies designed for cancer that use biomarkers for testing the efficacy of the drug in the research. Increased cancer research in the coming years is expected to boost demand for the biomarkers designed for cancer testing and thus support the market in the post-pandemic period.
