Impact of COVID-19
Next-generation sequencing (NGS)-based products are widely employed in research and diagnosis of diseases such as cancer, as well as providing cancer patients with appropriate and individualized therapy. Because the market is dominated primarily by manufacturers of next-generation sequencing instruments, kits, and assays, as well as service providers that provide gene panels and testing services using next-generation sequencing for oncology, the pandemic had a negative impact on the market's revenue growth.
However, during the COVID-19 pandemic, next-generation sequencing (NGS) and analytics were increasingly employed for sequencing the SARS-CoV-2 virus, to track its mutations, and manage population health. For example, in October 2022, Kyrgyzstan began building next-generation sequencing capabilities for SARS-CoV-2. Leaders in this sequencing industry have predicted a greater push toward local manufacturing rather than its dependency on import activities. The pandemic revealed cracks in the supply chain, prompting Asia-Pacific and Middle East countries to strengthen local production of medicines where possible.

Recent Developments in the Asia-Pacific and Middle East NGS Market
• In October 2022, the company introduced Revio and Onso - new sequencing systems; Revio is a long-read sequencing system that allows the sequencing of up to 1,300 human whole genomes per year, while Onso is a benchtop short-read DNA sequencing platform. The system enables scaling of the use of PacBio’s HiFi sequencing technology for large studies in human genetics, cancer research, and agricultural genomics, among others.
• In September 2022, Illumina, Inc. introduced Illumina Complete Long-Reads (INFINITY) for human whole-genome sequencing (WGS). This resulted in a high-performance, streamlined, integrated method. Furthermore, the platform showed compatible with all NovaSeq systems for the synthesis of thousands of long-read genomes every year.
• In September 2022, Illumina, Inc. introduced the first FDA-registered and CE-marked in vitro diagnostic (IVD) high-throughput sequencer, the NovaSeq 6000 Dx. The NovaSeq 6000 Dx is a versatile platform that provides the greatest levels of compliance while also delivering useful insights for patient care.
• In August 2022, Illumina, Inc. teamed with Minderoo Foundation and contributed $27.8 million to improve genetic knowledge of marine systems. This innovative collaboration used Illumina's NextSeq 2000 sequencing system to assess and understand marine life in seas.
• In April 2022, the company expanded its relationship with Genomics England, which is evaluating the therapeutic and scientific uses of full genomic analysis of cancer tumors using nanopore technology in an ongoing project.
• In March 2022, the company introduced CE-IVD marked Ion Torrent Genexus Dx Integrated Sequencer. This sequencer is fully automated, producing data in a single day.
• In January 2022, Pacific Biosciences of California, Inc. collaborated with Genomics England, a company created to deliver the 100,000 Genomes Project to study PacBio's technology for the identification of genetic variants in cancer and rare disease cases. As part of the collaboration, Genomics England will re-sequence biobank samples collected during the 100,000 Genomes Project using Pacific Biosciences of California, Inc.'s long-read sequencing technology to identify additional genomic variants that are not readily accessible by short-read sequencing technologies.
