Companion Diagnostics Market Outlook- 2026
The global companion diagnostics market generated $1,678 million in 2018, and is projected to reach $6,452 million by 2026, growing at a CAGR of 18.3% from 2019 to 2026.
A companion diagnostic is an in vitro medical device that provides information which is essential for the safe and effective use of a corresponding drug or biological product. This diagnostic test helps a health care professional to determine whether a particular therapeutic product is beneficial to patients and can outweigh any potential serious side effects or risks.
The companion diagnostics market is expected to experience significant growth during the forecast period owing to surge in R&D of targeted therapies, rise in demand for personalized medicine with increase in awareness in emerging economies, discovery of new biomarkers for various conditions, and higher number of unmet needs for the treatment of cancer are majorly driving the growth of the global companion diagnostics market.
COMPANION DIAGNOSTICS MARKET SEGMENTATION
The global companion diagnostics market is segmented based on technology type, indication, and region. Based on technology type, the market is classified as immunohistochemistry, polymerase chain reaction (PCR), next generation sequencing (NGS), in situ hybridization, and others. Based on indication, the market is classified as oncology, neurology, and others. The oncology segment is further segmented into lung cancer, colorectal cancer, breast cancer, blood cancer, and others. Based on region, the market is studied across North America (U.S., Canada, and Mexico), Europe (Germany, France, the UK, and rest of Europe), Asia-Pacific (China, Japan, Australia, and rest of Asia-Pacific), and LAMEA (Brazil, South Africa and rest of LAMEA).
Segment review
Based on technology, the PCR segment dominates the global market, and is anticipated to continue this trend during the forecast period. Some key factors that drive the market growth are cost effectiveness, high sensitivity, and specificity and can be used for simple automated platforms. Furthermore, the sequencing of unknown etiologies of many diseases can be determined by the PCR, which is another key driver of this segment. However, the next generation sequencing segment is estimated to experience rapid growth during the forecast period owing to its key advantages such as higher sensitivity to detect low-frequency variants, lower turnaround time for high sample volumes, ability to sequence hundreds to thousands of genes or gene regions simultaneously etc. are majorly driving the market growth.Oncomine Dx Target Test, FoundationOne CDx, FoundationFocus CDxBRCA Assay and others use next generation sequencing for detection.
Based on indication, the global companion diagnostics market is segmented into oncology, neurology, and others. At present, the oncology segment is the major revenue generating segment and is estimated to experience significant growth during the forecast period.
Some key factors such as higher prevalence of cancer, rise in number of R&D activities for cancer, higher number of unmet needs for treatment of cancer, rise in number of FDA approved companion diagnostics, and increasing awareness among the patients about personalized medicine are majorly driving the growth of the oncology segment.
Research in cancer has identified significant differences in gene sequence and expression patterns that can be the basis for targeted therapy. Furthermore, many biomarkers have been identified for different cancers, for which companion diagnostics have been developed. Companion diagnostics are widely used in different forms of cancer such as lung cancer, colorectal cancer, breast cancer, blood cancer, which are the major cause of the death.
The companion diagnostics market share is higher for breast cancer as there are many companion diagnostics developed for detection of breast cancer mutations; with large number of target population.
