Precision Medicine Diagnostics Market- Drivers
Precision medicine diagnostics market is expected to expand at rapid pace in near future, owing to increasing number of pipeline studies to develop new treatment for cancer. For instance, in January 2016, University of Arkansas initiated the clinical trial for fresh tissue biopsy to study the further advancements in bio-specimens (blood cellular free component, e.g., plasma, serum, tissue, urine), in order to develop precision medicine for lung cancer management and screening (synergy with imaging). Fresh tissue biopsy involves taking a small sample of tissue from the body part for further microscopic examination. The study is estimated to complete in December 2019.
Moreover, government initiatives to create awareness among the community health worker is expected to boost growth of the precision medicine diagnostics market. For instance, in March 2018, the Division of Community Engagement and University of Agricultural and Horticultural Sciences (UAHS) Center for Applied Genetics and Genomic Medicine partnered with the University Of Arizona Banner Health Research Program to develop and implement a unique and culturally conscious approach to increase precision medicine literacy, particularly among underserved and marginalized populations. The program has been named as ‘Precision Medicine Community Health Workers/Promoters for All of Us’.
Furthermore, in October 2017, the National Institutes of Health (NIH) collaborated with 11 biopharmaceutical companies to launch a five-year Accelerating Cancer Therapies (PACT) program, this collaboration is focused on enhancing precision medicine approaches to cancer care. Initial focus of PACT is to identify, develop, and validate robust biomarkers (standardized biological markers) of disease and treatment response, to advance new immunotherapy treatments that controls immune system to attack cancer. The total cost of the project was US$ 215 million.
