The major factors that hinder growth of the global cancer biomarkers market include high treatment cost and unfavorable reimbursement policies. For instance, according to the data updated by ClinicSpots, an online platform for users/patients to interact and discuss symptoms and cure for their ailment, on June 2, 2022, on average, the cost of cancer treatment in India is around INR 500,000 (US$ 6,437) with a minimum expense of INR 90,000 (US$ 1,158) and a maximum cost of INR 2,750,000 (US$ 35,403). Moreover, the cost varies in different countries and treatment of cancer in India costs 60-80% less than in countries like the U.S., the U.K., Singapore, and others.
