Global Genomics in Cancer Care Market Overview
DNA is the genetic material of the body where the genetic information of an individual is stored. The total DNA enclosed in the cell makes up the genome. The study of the sequence of DNA and the transformation of information in the body is referred as genomics. During cancer, there are certain minor changes in the genetic letters which can result in genetic alterations which includes mutations, deletions, insertions and many more. In cancer, change in the single nucleotide can hinder the working of the cell and can cause abnormalities.
The study of cancer genomes revealed various types of abnormalities in genes which propels the growth and proliferation of various types of cancer. The cancer causing epigenetic and genetic changes has led to the development of specialized therapies which effectively targets these changes. The coupling of advanced computational data analysis and next generation sequencing has revolutionized the understanding of the genomics involved in cancer progression and cancer development. The advent of antibody based therapies that target a cancer’s genomic dependencies have fueled the transition of genomic assays into clinical applications for patients suffering from cancer.
Market Size and Forecast

High Prevalence of Cancer
Genomics is widely used in cancer care for cancer treatment and diagnosis. Advancement in genomics followed by various improvements in sequencing technology have paved new roads for cancer care. According to the report of World Health Organization, the global cancer burden has enhanced to 18.1 million new cases. The number of deaths due to cancer was 9.6 million in 2018. Therefore, high prevalence of cancer across the globe along with the adoption of precision medicines in the field of oncology to get information about different types of genetic changes in the tumor are anticipated to augment the growth of the market over the forecast period.
Rise in Healthcare Expenditure
The advent of genomics in the past few years especially in the area of oncology has led to various research and developments in genomics for cancer care as genomics play an important role in the field of oncology. There is a rise in the healthcare expenditure across the globe. The healthcare expenditure of United States in the year 2016 was USD 8,047 per capita which enhanced to USD 10,209 per capita in the year 2017. These factors are anticipated to boost the market shares over the forecast period.
Restraints
Low Rate of Adoption of Genomics in Cancer Care
The low rate of adoption of genomics in cancer care in the developing economies and the high cost associated with it is estimated to hinder the growth of the market over the forecast period.
