The growth in the global lung cancer genomic testing market is expected to be driven by increasing awareness and adoption of the lung cancer genomic testing market, recent launches of novel lung cancer genomic testing, and the expanding research in the field of lung cancer with an emphasis on pharmacogenomics and development of companion diagnostics.

Market Lifecycle Stage

The global lung cancer genomic testing market is still in the nascent phase. Various companies are increasing investments in research and development to facilitate the development of lung cancer genomic testing, which is expected to further increase the adoption of lung cancer genomic tests.

The shift of healthcare systems toward precision diagnostic and precision medicine will drive the adoption of lung cancer genomic testing facilitating informed treatment decision making and improving healthcare outcomes. Increasing recommendations by the international oncology societies for the use of genomic testing for lung cancer diagnosis provides major opportunities in the global lung cancer genomic testing market.

Impact

• The presence of major in-vitro diagnostics (IVD) product providers of lung cancer genomic tests in regions such as North America and Europe has a major impact on the market. For instance, Qiagen provides therascreen Solid Tumor assays, a real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR) test for EGFR detection in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients. Additionally, Roche provides Cobas EGFR Mutation Test, a PCR-based test, and FoundationOne CDx by Foundation Medicine Inc., which is a next-generation sequencing (NGS) based assay for NSCLC.
• The presence of major laboratory developed tests (LDTs) service providers companies offer lung cancer genomic testing in regions such as North America and Europe, which has a major impact on the market. The LDTs are offered by Quest Diagnostics and Laboratory Corporation of America (Labcorp), targeting various lung cancer genes, for example, EGFR, MET, ALK, and ROS, based on Fluorescence in situ Hybridization (FISH) and NGS. The presence of these companies has a positive impact on market growth.

Impact of COVID-19

The global lung cancer genomic testing market is dominated by the utility in diagnostic laboratories, hospitals, and clinics. During the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic, multiple countries witnessed a complete or a partial lockdown, and all elective surgeries and procedures were halted in the healthcare settings. Since the lung cancer genomic testing is categorized under the elective procedure, the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the lung cancer genomic testing was negative. BIS Research analysis has concluded that the market witnessed a drop of 3.24% in the annual growth rate of global lung cancer genomic testing market.
