Global Liquid Biopsy Market, Analysis and Forecast, 2017-2025 (Focus on Product Type, Therapeutic Application, End User, Market Share Analysis, Country Analysis, and Competitive Landscape)

A biopsy is the most common, definitive medical procedure used for cancer diagnosis and treatment monitoring. Tissue biopsy, is widely adopted procedure to diagnose cancer. However, a major drawback for tissue based diagnosis approach is its dependency on invasive surgical procedures which in many instances preclude the regular treatment monitoring and sometimes the initial diagnosis too. The search for better minimal invasive diagnostic procedures to aid regular monitoring of the patient’s response towards the treatment gave birth to liquid biopsy tests. In the recent years, the impressive research on cancer biomarkers’ presence in biological fluids, such as blood, which can be collected through minimal invasive techniques has yielded promising results to develop better minimal invasive diagnostics procedures known as liquid biopsies. 

Liquid biopsy is a minimal invasive medical procedure with the ability to detect the presence of molecular cancer biomarkers in the biological fluids. The derived test results help the doctors in deciding the further steps in the treatment of the patient suffering from cancer. The test principally involves the usage of samples of biological fluids, such as blood, urine, serum, and saliva, among others, and then the enrichment of the samples using different techniques, such as Next generation Sequencing (NGS), and Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR), to detect the mutations known to cause cancer.

The liquid biopsy market is expected to grow at a near double digit annual growth rate. The abilities of liquid biopsy, such as minimal invasiveness, possibility of continuous monitoring of the patient’s response towards treatment, and  the monitoring of clonal mutations, combined with the growing prominence for precision medicine have fueled the growth of the liquid biopsy market.
