Circulating Tumor Cell Market Trends

• Growing benefits likes non-invasiveness to boost market growth

Circulating tumor cells are a promising technique in cancer detection because of their non-invasiveness and benefits. The market is also being driven by advances in chip technology, which is another crucial aspect. Circulating tumor cells (CTCs) have been the subject of extensive translational and clinical cancer research initiatives over the past few decades. The development of the market is anticipated to be aided by the ongoing studies being conducted on circulating tumor cell technology by several governmental organizations, including the American Association of Cancer Research and the American Society of Clinical Oncology, to use circulating tumor cells as a surrogate marker for determining the progression of cancer.

The business is anticipated to be driven by the increasing prevalence of various cancer kinds. At 2.26 million cases and 2.21 million cases, breast cancer and lung cancer, respectively, were the most prevalent cancers in 2020. Early cancer identification and adequate cancer treatment and patient care can lessen the disease's burden. The sector is expanding due to the high suitability of circulating cancer cells for creating preclinical models, mainly 3D organoid cultures, for application in drug screening, disease modeling, genome editing, and organoid biobanks.

One of the critical driving demands in this market is the high usage of companion diagnostics in assessing tumor eradication features of cytotoxic medications. The development of CTC-based assays, which may aid in cancer diagnosis, is a continuous focus of key players. Therefore, the such medical condition has recently enhanced the Circulating Tumor Cell market CAGR globally.

Issues with reproducibility and isolation consistency constrain this biomarker's therapeutic relevance. The link between quantification and cancer prognosis implants is another factor driving the growth of the Circulating Tumor Cell market revenue.

Circulating Tumor Cell Market Segment Insights

Circulating Tumor Cell Type Insights

Based on technology, the global Circulating Tumor Cells market segmentation includes research and drug development. The research segment held the majority share in 2022, contributing to around ~65-67% in the Circulating Tumor Cell Market revenue. It is thought that the substrate for cancer metastasis is circulating tumor cells. Enumerating tumor cells in circulation is still primarily a research technique. Recently, the emphasis has switched to characterizing and isolating circulating tumor cells, which can present significant prospects for predictive testing studies.

Circulating Tumor Cell Technology Insights

Technology has bifurcated the Circulating Tumor Cell Market data into CTC Enrichment and CTC Detection. The CTC Enrichment segment dominated the market in 2022 and is projected to be the faster-growing segment during the forecast period, 2022-2030. The circulating lump is either positively or negatively enriched based on biological characteristics. Negative enrichment, however, is the tagging of antigens that are not expressed on CTCs but on other blood plates. Positive enrichment is the capture of tumors.

CTC Detection was the fastest-growing segment. Several businesses are investing in creating goods that support downstream assays and CTC analysis. For instance, the CTC analysis products offered by Vortex Biosciences include immunofluorescence, cytopathology, cytogenetics (FISH), cell culture, and genomics.

Circulating Tumor Cell End User Insights

Based on End Users, the global Circulating Tumor Cells market segmentation has been segmented into Hospitals & Clinics, Research & Academic Institutes, and Diagnostic Centers. Research & Academic Institutes held the most significant segment share in 2022. This field has substantially advanced cancer research; thus, goods on the market are mainly made for use in lab settings. Parsortix Technology, Target Selector Platform, Apostream, Celsee PREP 400, IsoFlux CTC system, DEPArray System, VTX-1, and AdnaTest are a few notable items that have significantly influenced the vast majority of research settings.

The fastest-growing segment in the Circulating Tumor Cell industry is Diagnostic Centers. The practical efficacy of these cell-based assays has been limited because a significant portion of commercial liquid biopsy tests is based on cell-free DNA (cfDNA). In the market for clinical applications, cfDNA has a smaller market share than circulating tumor cells because it is more commonly used to diagnose cancer.

Circulating Tumor Cell Regional Insights

The report provide markets insights by region, covering North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, and the rest of the world. The North America circulating tumor cells market had sales of USD 2.01 billion in 2022 and is anticipated to increase at a substantial CAGR over the research period due to increased cancer burden, product approvals, and expanding research and development efforts. For instance, the American Cancer Society, Inc. projects that in 2022, there will be around 236,740 new instances of lung cancer diagnosed in the US. The same source also predicts that 79,000 new instances of kidney cancer and 13,920 kidney cancer-related deaths will be recorded in 2022. The rising prevalence of cancer is anticipated to increase demand for CTC detection kits and propel market expansion.

Further, the significant countries studied in the market report are The U.S., Canada, Germany, France, the UK, Italy, Spain, China, Japan, India, Australia, South Korea, and Brazil.
