Genomics in Cancer Care Market Segmentation Analysis- By Technology

Genomics in Cancer Care Market based on technology can be further segmented into Prothrombin Genome sequencing, purification and nucleic acid extraction, microarray, bioinformatics, and flow cytometry. Genome sequencing held a dominant market share in the year 2022 and is estimated to be the fastest-growing, with a CAGR of 15.1% over the forecast period of 2022-2027. Genome sequencing is a great tool for unravelling the mystery of genetic variation between people. It's the process of defining a DNA sequence, or the order of nucleotides in a DNA molecule (adenine, thymine, guanine, and cytosine). Whole-genome sequencing (WGS) is a laboratory procedure that generates a detailed map of a person's whole genetic code, allowing all genes to be examined.

According to NCBI 2018, large-scale cancer genome sequencing is resulting in significant breakthroughs in understanding the cancer genome. Many unique basic genetic processes controlling cancer origin, development, and maintenance have been discovered owing to the large range of cancer types sequenced and evaluated utilizing these methods. For instance, In February 2022, C2i Genomics, a cancer intelligence firm, and Twist Bioscience Corporation, a business that helps clients thrive by providing high-quality synthetic DNA through its silicon platform, have announced a collaboration to generate whole-genome cancer reference materials. Hence, the Genome sequencing segment dominates the market.

Genomics in Cancer Care Market Segmentation Analysis- By Application

 Genomics in Cancer Care Market based diagnostics can be further segmented into Diagnostics, personalized machines, drug discovery, development, and research. Diagnostics held a dominant market share in the year 2022 and is estimated to be the fastest-growing, with a CAGR of 15.2% over the forecast period of 2022-2027 owing to increasing genes involved in cancer treatment and resistance. For instance, If the tumour has a large number of Her2neu receptors each of which is a key indicator for treatment options. Now, genomics is giving researchers the capacity to go much deeper into a tumour’s DNA alterations and to compare or differ from those seen in other tumours. As a result, people are looking for new medications.

According to National Human Genome Research Institute 2020, unfortunately, certain cancers are more difficult to assess since examining their genomes needs invasive and unpleasant biopsies or surgeries involving the removal of small pieces of cancer tissue for examination. This also makes it more difficult for physicians to track how well various cancer treatments are working since repeated biopsies aren't possible. Instead of directly sampling the tumour, recent advancements now allow the detection of circulating tumour DNA (or ctDNA) in the blood of patients. When cancer cells divide rapidly and die, part of their DNA is released into circulation. Now also have assays sensitive enough to identify and sequence these fragments of ctDNA in the circulation apart from the patient's normal DNA - this is referred to as a ctDNA isolation test. Hence, the diagnostics segment dominates the market through gene sequencing.

Genomics in Cancer Care Market Drivers

The Increasing resistance to Existing Treatments for Cancer is driving the Market for Genomics in Cancer Care

According to National Cancer Institute 2020, almost all existing therapies have the same issue: they eventually stop functioning for many people. Drug resistance, as it is commonly called, is one of the most difficult challenges facing cancer researchers and patients today. When cancer cells become resistant to the effects of therapy medications, they can multiply and rebuild tumours, which is referred to as recurrence or relapse. Resistance can develop fast, often within weeks after commencing therapy. In other circumstances, it takes months or even years to manifest.

When cancer cells even a small group of cells inside a tumour have genetic modifications that render them insensitive to a specific medicine before treatment even begins, resistance can develop. Since cancer cells within the same tumour frequently contain a range of molecular alterations, this is referred to as "mutational cancer." According to CDC 2019, The number of new cases of cancer (cancer incidence) is 439.2 per 100,000 men and women per year (based on 2011–2015 cases). According to NCBI 2018, in addition to conventional therapy, gene therapy targeting faulty genes such as TP53 (tumour suppressor gene encodes for p53) and KRAS (oncogene) in CRC can be an alternative treatment option, thereby, driving the market growth.

The Increasing Prevalence of Cancer is Driving the Market for Genomics in Cancer Care

The rising number of cancer cases is likely to increase the need for enhanced cancer diagnostics and treatment alternatives. According to Globocan 2020, a total of 19,292,789 new cancer cases were diagnosed globally, with roughly 9,958,133 cancer-related deaths. Furthermore, according to the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC), the global cancer incidence is anticipated to increase to 27.5 million new cases and 16.3 million deaths by 2040. Hence, the rising prevalence of cancer is one of the key driving factors in the Market.

Genomics in Cancer Care Market Challenges

The High Cost of Genomics in Cancer Care is a Challenge for Genomics in Cancer Care Industry

Cancer is a hereditary condition that occurs when normal cells malfunction and lose their regular safety checks as a result of checkpoint regulator mutations or the acquisition of novel capabilities that induce uncontrollable proliferation. Gene therapy is currently exceedingly expensive, with treatment costs ranging from hundreds of thousands of dollars to over a million dollars. The most expensive part of gene therapy research and development is creating the vectors that transport the therapeutic genes. This can cost anywhere from $500,000 to $1 million. Gene therapy has quickly risen to the top of the list of the most promising new medical breakthroughs of our time. It provides a number of benefits over traditional therapies, including the ability to administer a single dose rather than a series of treatments and a higher specificity than standard chemotherapy.

According to Oncobites 2020, Gene therapy is currently quite expensive, with treatment costs ranging from tens of thousands of dollars to more than a million dollars. As a novel therapy paradigm (while showing significant promise in clinical trials), its real-world effectiveness is unclear, thus payers (both public and commercial insurance) are hesitant to pay the high cost of gene treatments. Hence, the cost of treatment is estimated to restrain the market.
