Market Overview

Cardiac biomarkers are intracellular macromolecules released into the bloodstream when the heart is damaged or under stress. Rising heart enzyme levels help to reveal acute coronary syndrome or ischemia. The use of the cardiac biomarkers market services has extensively increased in the past decade and provides more successful results in the diagnosis of myocardial cell injury or heart failure.

The biomarkers used in the mid-20th century (Aspartate transaminase (AST) and Lactate dehydrogenase) are not clinically suitable in present days however, they are now replaced with more sensitive and specific biomarkers.  It is expected for biomarkers to evolve to provide a substantial understanding of the pathogenesis of cardiac diseases.

Market Dynamics

Driver

Rising heart disease cases

The primary causes of heart disease are genetics, unhealthy lifestyle, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, smoking, and many more. Cardiac biomarker provides numerous advantages in lowering the occurring cases by screening the damaged heart and other problems, predicting the result for various heart conditions, monitoring the efficiency of heart medications and heart surgery process, and diagnosis of heart conditions led by symptoms such as chest pain and shortness of breath.

  • Recently, a study published in JAMA Cardiology states that global diabetes, obesity, and hypertension are putting the heart at risk. It is estimated that over 6.7 million Americans aged 20 years have heart failure due to consumption of poor-quality food such as processed food, sugary drinks, and fast food, and the growth is anticipated to rise to 8.5 million by 2023.
  • In February 2024, at Uppsala University in Sweden, a researcher published a scientific study that identified 90 molecules that may function as biomarkers of a cardiac event, also providing an early detection warning that may avail time for preventive measures before the first heart attack hits.

Restraints

Lack of standardisation

The main drawback of cardiac biomarkers market is the lack of standardization. Different laboratories are using different methodologies for the measurement of biomarkers, which is leading to inconsistent results. Currently, there is a lack of standardization between different assays and variations of concentration. Therefore, it is hard to compare. The hindrance in comparing the study's data and the institution's complex is impacting the worldwide adoption of cardiac biomarkers in clinical application.

Price structure and availability

In the healthcare setting, biomarker assays are extremely expensive and not feasible for routine use. The availability and ease of access depend on different regions and healthcare facilities in the cardiac biomarkers market. This causes social inequality among patients and their diagnosis.

  • A study published in the Journal of the National Comprehensive Cancer Network claims that Medicaid insurance coverage beneficiaries are less likely to undergo biomarker testing or receive any top-quality biomarker-driven therapy.

Opportunity

In the future, sensitivity and specificity will no longer be an issue when diagnosing heart disease. The increased sensitivity by assays is costly, which decreases the diagnostic specificity. Therefore, that problem is expected to be resolved in the future.  New biomarker identifications will be implemented to understand the complex cardiac pathophysiology. The cardiac biomarkers market will be enhanced in the foreseeable future as it is not specific enough to be a cardiac biomarker. Multi-biomarker approaches, such as tissue-specific markers, will be added for diagnosis, which will be helpful.

Type Insights

The Troponin segment dominated the cardiac biomarkers market in 2023. Troponin protein is the most used biomarker. It is highly sensitive compared to the other protein biomarkers. The sensitivity is useful for diagnosis, monitoring, and prediction of heart attacks. Current American Heart Association (AHA) guidelines state that troponin is the best biomarker for finding a heart attack. It also warns against using other biomarkers such as CK, CK-MB, and myoglobin. Due to their being less specific for the heart, it may cause complicacy with skeletal muscle injury. The extensive use of troponin is observed in hospitals, emergency rooms, and similar healthcare settings.

The BNP and NT-proBNP segment is expected to grow at the fastest rate in the cardiac biomarkers market over the forecast period. BNP and NT-proBNP are natriuretic peptide proteins that are produced by the heart. They are commonly used to confirm or eliminate heart failure.  Although they are usually used to recognize heart failure, an increased number of people with ACS has indicated an increased risk of recurrence in the symptoms. If the result of Brain Natriuretic Peptide (BNP) is greater than 100 pg/mL, it indicates abnormality and the presence of heart failure. The higher the result, the greater the severity.

  • Pathkind Labs in Mumbai collaborated with Roche Diagnostics and released the cardiac biomarker NTProBNP to detect heart failure in patients, and is also used in the management of Type 2 Diabetes (T2DM).

Application Insights

The acute coronary syndrome segment accounted for the largest share of the cardiac biomarkers market in 2023. It is a collaborative condition that either immediately stops or severely slows down the blood flow to the heart muscle. Due to the hindrance in blood flow to the heart, the heart muscles become damaged, causing heart attacks and angina. ACS requires emergency medical care at the healthcare facility. Some primary tests for ACS are an electrocardiogram (ECG or EKG) and blood test with the help of a cardiac biomarker. The testing helps the healthcare professional to provide the patient with the right diagnosis.

The other segment is expected to grow rapidly in the cardiac biomarkers market during the forecasted years. The other segment includes myocardial infarction, congestive heart failure, pulmonary embolism, and non-ST non-ST-elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI). Among all, myocardial infarction is expected to grow at the fastest rate. Myocardial infarction is silent and undetected; the events may lead to hemodynamic deterioration and sudden death. For instance, In the United States, the majority of myocardial infarctions are due to underlying coronary artery disease.

End-use Insights

The laboratory testing segment contributed the biggest share of the cardiac biomarkers market in 2023. The laboratory testing is either performed at the hospital facility or a private laboratory. These places can test a high volume of samples in one sitting. Laboratory testing provides a reliable and precise result of the health problem while other tests provide a general idea. It takes up to 24 hours or more to show results. These tests are conducted considering federal regulatory standards and go through strict criteria before presenting them to the physician.

Cardiac Biomarkers Market Share, By End-use, 2023 (%)

The point-of-care testing segment is anticipated to have the fastest growth rate in the cardiac biomarkers market during the forecasted years. A point-of-care test is also known as near-patient resting; it provides doctors with accurate, real-time, and quick laboratory-quality diagnostic results. In POCT, portable analyzers simplify the diagnostic process to ensure that patients receive the care they need. This test is not always accurate. They frequently show errors depending on the testing device used. As these tests can be conducted one test at a time, this method is suitable for at-home service.
