The clinical oncology next generation sequencing market size is expected to see rapid growth in the next few years. It will grow to $1.04 billion in 2030 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 12.1%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to increasing demand for precision oncology, rising investments in genomic medicine, expansion of hospital-based sequencing laboratories, growing use of targeted cancer therapies, continuous advancements in sequencing technologies. Major trends in the forecast period include increasing adoption of ngs-based oncology diagnostics, rising use of companion diagnostic applications, growing integration of bioinformatics and data analytics, expansion of personalized cancer treatment approaches, enhanced focus on rare mutation detection.
The rising prevalence of cancer is expected to drive the growth of the clinical oncology next-generation sequencing (NGS) market. Cancer refers to a group of diseases characterized by the uncontrolled growth and spread of abnormal cells within the body. NGS plays a vital role in detecting novel and rare mutations in cancer, helping to better understand the molecular foundations of individual tumors. For example, in May 2024, the National Cancer Institute, a US-based government agency, reported that there were approximately 18.1 million cancer survivors in the United States. This number is projected to increase to 22.5 million by 2032. By 2040, the number of new cancer cases annually is expected to reach 29.9 million, with cancer-related deaths estimated to rise to 15.3 million. Therefore, the growing prevalence of cancer is a major factor driving the expansion of the clinical oncology next-generation sequencing market.
Major companies operating in the clinical oncology next-generation sequencing (NGS) market are emphasizing technological advancements, including the integration of software accelerators that significantly cut the time and cost associated with secondary NGS analysis, allowing laboratories to generate results more rapidly while reducing computational resource requirements. These accelerator solutions enable comprehensive genomic profiling and improve the accessibility of high-throughput cancer panels for both large centralized laboratories and decentralized diagnostic environments. For instance, in January 2024, QIAGEN Digital Insights, a Germany-based bioinformatics company, introduced an upgraded version of its CLC Genomics Workbench Premium incorporating LightSpeed technology with support for somatic cancer secondary analysis. The LightSpeed accelerator is capable of processing a 275-gene cancer panel at 3377× coverage in approximately six minutes, at a cost of less than US$0.72 per test in standard cloud settings. LightSpeed is designed to deliver high performance and accuracy with lower power consumption and does not require new hardware or additional licenses beyond the existing CLC platform.
In January 2023, Agilent Technologies, a US-based scientific equipment manufacturer, acquired Avida Biomed for an undisclosed amount. This acquisition aims to strengthen Agilent Technologies' high-performance target enrichment workflows for next-generation sequencing applications, particularly in cancer research. By integrating Avida's innovative technologies, Agilent seeks to enhance precision medicine approaches and expand its SureSelect portfolio into the clinical research and diagnostics markets. Avida Biomed, a US-based biotechnology company, specializes in clinical oncology next-generation sequencing.
