Great healthcare networks and high incidences of cancer help to improve the market. Additionally, the favorable government regulations in the United States and Canada accelerate the development of the new in vitro cancer diagnostic tool.
Asia Pacific is anticipated to grow notably in the cancer IVD market during the forecast period due to factors such as increased incidence of cancer, developments in the healthcare infrastructure, and an increase in healthcare spending. Asia Pacific countries, such as China, India, South Korea, and Japan, are expected to have increasing public concern with the early diagnosis of cancer, and the development of diagnostic tools also affects the market in the region.
In vitro diagnostics (IVD) tests are performed on blood samples, urine samples, stool samples, or tissue samples that provide medical information used to diagnose conditions from mild infections to life-threatening cancers. IVDs can also be used self-administered by patients mostly for monitoring of chronic diseases. In vitro diagnostics offer the opportunity to detect cancer early for more effective and timely treatment. IVDs are specific tests or medical devices that examine specimens taken from the human body and provide essential data for screening, diagnosis, and treatment.

Increasing prevalence of cancer
The global incidence of cancer continues to rise, hence making people more interested in diagnostic procedures, thus fueling the growth of the cancer IVD market. The rapidly growing cancer burden reflects both population aging as well as changes in people’s exposure to risk factors, several of which are associated with socioeconomic development. Tobacco, alcohol, and obesity are key factors behind the increasing incidence of cancer, with air pollution still a key driver of environmental risk factors. Cancer rates are highest in countries whose populations have the highest life expectancy, education level, and standard of living.
Regulatory hurdles
Regulatory compliance can act as a limiting factor for the cancer IVD market. Rigorous approval processes that are demanded by regulatory authorities such as the FDA and other regulatory bodies are usually time-consuming and increase costs. Requirement for an extended clinical trial to prove the precision and accuracy of the devices that also add on in the expanses.
Increasing investment and developing mergers and acquisitions
Increasing investment and high levels of mergers and acquisitions are projected to boost the demand for the cancer IVD market. This leads to improved research and development, resulting in the innovation of diagnostic technologies that aid in the early identification and monitoring of cancer. This has the effect of increasing capital investment for new product development and growth of product portfolios. Also, there is a high frequency of mergers and acquisitions, specifically in the development and utilization of improved and innovative platforms.
the reagents segment accounted for the largest share of the cancer IVD market in 2023. Reagents are special biological/chemical solutions that can react with target substances or samples. The reagents segment is gradually developing because of the growth of cancer incidence rates and the need for effective and early diagnostics. The reagents segment is emerging primarily due to the increase in the frequency of cancer diseases and the need for their early detection.
the service segment is expected to witness significant growth in the cancer IVD market during the forecast period. It also embraces the support services for the upkeep of the diagnostic tools and equipment, data and information process and analysis, and education and training programs ranging from the upgrade of the health care experts. These services are critically important for diagnosis, treatment planning, and integrating newer technologies efficiently into clinical practice, thereby contributing to improving patient care for cancer.
the clinical chemistry segment registered the biggest share of the cancer IVD market in 2023. Clinical chemistry uses chemical processes to measure levels of chemical components in body fluids and tissues. The tumor markers and disease status, as well as the treatment plans, require the use of clinical chemistry tests. Developments in clinical chemistry applied to cancer examinations improve the test’s sensitivity and specificity, which positively affect diagnostic accuracy. In response to the increasing demand for early diagnosis and individualized approaches to therapy, the segment of clinical chemistry remains at the forefront of the development of the market.
the immunochemistry/immunoassay segment is expected to grow significantly in the cancer IVD market during the forecast period. Immunoassay techniques have become the dominant test method in the clinical quantitative detection of tumor markers. The objective diagnostic tools include immunoassays such as ELISA and chemiluminescent immunoassays (CLIAs) that have been proven to produce high specificity and sensitivity for tumor markers and disease prognosis.
the hospitals segment dominated the cancer IVD market in 2023. Cancer tests can also be carried out in hospitals, and they are well-equipped and staffed by well-trained personnel. They have estimated that the further development of health care and infrastructure coupled with favorable initiatives are expected to primarily help in improving the hospital facilities. Therefore, the IVD tests which are conducted in the hospital have become popular. They include screening and diagnostic procedures as well as treatments.
the patient self-testing segment is anticipated to grow significantly in the cancer IVD market during the forecast period. This segment is progressing due to the continued improvement in technology and greater awareness by consumers as self-testing is becoming easier and more accurate. The growing incidence of cancer as well as rising the geriatric population has increased the demand for self-testing IVD devices.
