Market Lifecycle Stage

The report includes market estimation for tests/services, instruments, kits and consumables used for liquid biopsies of different oncology and non-oncology disorders. Liquid biopsy has a critical role in the precision medicine approach, as it confirms the safe and effective application of targeted therapeutics.

The global liquid biopsy market is still in the nascent phase. Significant increase in the research and development activities pertaining to next-generation sequencing are underway to develop NGS products and services, which are expected to increase due to the rising number of chronic disease burdens such as cancer. Liquid biopsy is a non-invasive medical procedure which holds the ability to detect the presence of molecular cancer biomarkers in biological fluids.

A liquid biopsy helps physicians to analyze tumor-related information through a simple blood test. As researchers are generating data that have the potential to lead to unprecedented biological insight, albeit at the cost of the greater complexity of data analysis. Increasing investments in R&D of liquid biopsy products and services and various research fundings is one of the major opportunities in the global liquid biopsy market.

Rising global prevalence of cancers and the growing need for early detection coupled with efficient treatment monitoring and recurrence detection is anticipated to support the growth of the global liquid biopsy market during the forecast period 2022-2032.

The market is expected to grow at a significant growth rate due to opportunities such as the introduction of informatics and technological innovations for a large customer base and increasing adoption of cancer and other disease testing services.

Impact of COVID-19

The current global liquid biopsy market comprises various indications such as lung cancer, breast cancer, prostate cancer, and many others. It has been noticed that there has been a reduction in the capacity or shutdowns of laboratories and other research institutions, which have led to reduced usage of various products and services related to research.

The government imposed various restrictions during COVID-19, such as travel bans, quarantines, curfews, business shutdowns, and closures. This led to an increased cost of the COVID-19-related services. There have been many issues during the COVID-19 pandemic, such as operational failures, shipping issues, inaccurate demand forecasts, and other production issues.

Furthermore, the health and the safety of employees were impacted as COVID-19 reduced the efficacy of employees' work potential. However, the market related to COVID-19 grew during the pandemic as customers were in need of testing services. Overall, the impact of COVID-19 on the market size has been low-moderate. Some market players have reported a slight decline in sales. However, financials are already on their way to recovery.

The decline in revenues was mostly a result of the initial phases of the COVID-19 pandemic, which comprised complete lockdowns across countries and major cities, thus interrupting the supply chain. The timeline of impact spanned the end of the first quarter and the second quarter of 2020 for most key markets across the globe. However, the pandemic has played a key role in enhancing the growth prospects of liquid biopsy and is expected to indirectly aid in improving the market growth outlook.

Market Segmentation

Offering (Testing Service, Kits, Platform, Other Consumables)

The testing service segment accounted for the largest value, holding $1,169.2 million of the market in 2021. This trend is expected to increase during the forecast period, 2022-2032. As a result of growing awareness among the general population, coupled with the increasing prevalence of cancers and other non-oncology indications, there are tremendous growth opportunities in this segment.

Technology (NGS, PCR, Other Technologies, Emerging Technologies)

The largest share can be attributed to the fact that most of the liquid biopsy services and associated kits in the market are based on NGS. It is anticipated that the NGS segment will grow significantly during the forecast period, 2022-2032.

Workflow (Sample Preparation, Library Preparation, Sequencing, Data Analysis and Management)

Among all four segments of workflow, the library preparation segment accounted for the largest share, holding 41.18% of the market in 2021. This trend is expected to decline slightly, owing to the entry of novel sequencing platforms in the market during the forecast period (2022-2032). The existing dominance of this segment is primarily attributed to several library preparation kits that are being offered by liquid biopsy key players in the market.

Circulating Biomarkers (Circulating Tumor Cells (CTCs), Cell-Free DNA (cfDNA), Circulating Cell-Free RNAs, Exosomes and Extracellular Vesicles and Others, Other Circulating Biomarkers)

The cell-free DNA segment accounted for the largest share, holding 56.95% of the market in 2021. This existing dominance of cell-free DNA is expected to decline during the forecast period 2022- 2032, with the segment holding an estimate of 56.10% share in 2032 . As a result of growth in clinical applications, the overall biomarker segment is expected to exhibit tremendous growth through the forecast period.

Indication (Lung Cancer, Breast Cancer, Prostate Cancer, Colorectal Cancer, Melanoma, Other Types of Cancer, Non-Oncology Disorder)

The lung cancer segment accounted for the largest share, holding 28.47% of the market in 2021. The existing dominance of this segment is mainly attributed to several higher prevalence of lung cancer coupled with the existing availability of multiple LDT and few approved liquid biopsies in the market.

Clinical Application (Treatment Monitoring, Prognosis and Recurrence Monitoring, Treatment Selection, Diagnosis and Screening)

The treatment monitoring segment accounted for the largest share, holding 46.50% of the market in 2021. The existing dominance of this segment is mainly attributed to the availability of multiple treatments monitoring liquid biopsies that are currently offered by key players for different cancer.

Usage (Clinical, Research)

The research segment accounted for the largest share of 65.43% of the market in 2021. The share is expected to decline slightly during the forecast period, 2022-2032.
