Autoimmune Disease Testing Market By Product Type (Instruments, Consumables and kits) , By Disease Type (Rheumatoid Arthritis, Systemic Lupus Erythematous, Scleroderma, Vasculitis, Inflammatory Bowel Disease, Others) By Test Type (Antibodies and Immunolgic Test, Inflammatory Markers, Routine Laboratory Tests, Anti-Thyroglobulin Antibody, Others) By End User (Hospitals and Clinics, Clinical Laboratories, Others) : Global Opportunity Analysis and Industry Forecast, 2024-2033
The autoimmune disease testing market was valued at $5.3 billion in 2023, and is projected to reach $12.1 billion by 2033, growing at a CAGR of 8.6% from 2024 to 2033.
Autoimmune disease testing involves diagnosing and managing a wide range of autoimmune disorders by identifying specific autoantibodies and other biomarkers in the blood that indicate the presence of an autoimmune condition. These tests are essential in detecting a wide range of autoimmune disorders, such as rheumatoid arthritis, lupus, and multiple sclerosis. By analyzing specific biomarkers and antibodies in the blood, healthcare professionals can accurately diagnose these conditions, enabling timely and targeted treatment. Early detection through autoimmune testing is vital for managing symptoms, slowing disease progression, and improving patient outcomes.
Alarming increase in incidence of autoimmune diseases globally acts as the primary driver of the global autoimmune disease testing market, as these individuals require accurate and early diagnosis. According to a study published by the National Institutes of Health in 2022, autoimmune diseases were prevalent among approximately 23.5 million Americans, indicating the importance of effective diagnostic testing. In addition, surge in geriatric population significantly contributes toward the growth of the global market. As per the World Health Organization, the number of people aged 60 years and older was 1 billion in 2019. This number is estimated to increase to 1.4 billion by 2030 and 2.1 billion by 2050. With increasing aged population, the incidence of chronic conditions is expected to rise significantly. A 2021 report published by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention highlights that autoimmune diseases are among the leading causes of death for women under the age of 65. This is attributed to the fact that as the population ages, there is an increased demand for diagnostic tests to monitor and manage age-related diseases, thereby boosting the market for autoimmune disease testing. Furthermore, increase in public awareness about autoimmune diseases and the importance of early detection and rise in healthcare expenditure foster the market growth. Rise in use of point-of-care testing devices for quicker and more convenient results and shift in preference toward telemedicine and mobile health apps for remote testing and monitoring are the key trends that significantly people the market growth. However, high cost associated with advanced diagnostic tests and technologies acts as the primary barrier for the market growth. Moreover, lack of appropriate health facilities to meet population needs in most countries and limited access act as the key deterrent factors of the market. On the contrary, extensive research in identifying new biomarkers associated with autoimmune diseases has led to the development of more specific and sensitive tests, which is expected to provide lucrative opportunities for the market growth. In addition, increase in use of cutting-edge technologies, such as next-generation sequencing and multiplex assays to enhance the accuracy and efficiency of autoimmune disease testing is anticipated to open new avenues for the market growth in the coming years.
