Another major factor bolstering growth in the precision diagnostics market is the increasing integration of companion diagnostics with targeted therapies. Companion diagnostics are in vitro diagnostic tests or imaging tools that provide critical information for the safe and effective use of corresponding therapies or drugs. They help identify patients that are most likely (or not likely) to benefit from specific treatments. This allows for more precise selection of treatment options for patients and prevents potential adverse reactions. Regulatory agencies now mandate the development and approval of companion diagnostics along with several new targeted therapies. This is driving significant R&D investments from pharmaceutical companies into precision diagnostics. For instance, most new oncology drugs are now launched along with a corresponding DNA or protein-based companion diagnostic test to identify patients with specific genomic alterations or biomarkers.

This contributes to higher testing efficiency and diagnostic accuracy while reducing costs. Additionally, ongoing R&D efforts to develop kits and assays for new disease indications are expanding the market coverage of these products. Scientists are constantly working on assays tailored for specific disease biomarkers, population segments, and therapeutic areas which is supporting the market growth.

Insights, By Technology: Growing PCR Applications are Driving the Adoption of Technology

The technology segment includes next-generation sequencing, polymerase chain reaction, mass spectrometry, and others, out of which the polymerase chain reaction is expected to have the highest share, i.e., 33.8% of the market share in 2024. Owing to its diverse applications across specialties, Polymerase chain reaction has become an indispensable technique in research and clinical diagnostics due to its ability to amplify minute quantities of DNA or RNA into detectable levels. PCR plays a vital role in the detection of infectious diseases by identifying pathogens. It is the gold standard technique for the detection of bacterial and viral infections such as HIV, Hepatitis, HPV, SARS-CoV-2, etc. Additionally, PCR finds widespread application in oncology for cancer screening, prognosis, and detection of relapse. For instance, in July 2023, Anbio Biotechnology, a leading developer of novel diagnostic solutions, announced the launch of a full RT-PCR solution for both pharmacogenomics and non-pharmacogenomics applications. Anbio Biotechnology's molecular diagnostic test menu covers a wide range of clinical applications including healthcare-associated infections, critical infectious disease, sexual health, virology, pharmacogenomics, and cancer.

Insights, By Application: Early Detection is Driving the Adoption of Precision Diagnostics

The application segment comprises of accurate diagnosis, personalized treatment, early detection and intervention, and others, out of which the early detection and intervention is projected to have 29.6% of the market share in 2024 owing to benefits of early disease identification. Precision diagnostics aids in early tumor detection by identifying cancer-associated genetic mutations and gene expressions variations, even before structural changes manifest. Early detection enables timely treatment initiation before the disease progresses to later stages, improving clinical outcomes. Furthermore, precision diagnostics plays a critical role in early-stage diagnosis of infectious diseases. It facilitates early pathogen identification which is vital for initiating prompt treatment and controlling disease spread. Companion diagnostics find increased use in early detection of treatment resistance as it helps identify biomarkers for non-responsiveness to drugs.
