Liver Cancer Diagnostics Market Analysis

As per the CDC, each year in the United States, approximately 24,500 men and 10,000 women develop liver cancer, out of which 18,600 men and 9,000 women die from the disease. The cases of Americans getting liver cancer are rising for several decades. Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the most common liver cancer in the US. Furthermore, according to the Canada Government, about 1 in 4 Canadian adults (26.6%) are currently living with obesity. Obesity cases are also increasing and with increasing csaes the risk of certain health conditions such as liver damage, diabetes, high blood pressure, and heart disease are also rising.

Liver Cancer Diagnostics Market Overview

In the year 2020, the World Health Organization (WHO) stated that in worldwide, over 10 million deaths happened, out of which one in every six deaths are due to cancer. Additionally, in 2020, liver cancer is one of the most common cancer types, accounting for around 4.7% of all new cancer cases and 8.3% of all cancer deaths. Out of all diagnosed liver cancer cases, 75% to 90% are Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) ), which has a more significant impact on cancer-related fatalities.  According to the published article in CCO (Chinese Clinical Oncology), hepatocellular cancer (HCC) is a top cause of cancer death worldwide. The most often used procedures for HCC screening are the serum alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) test and liver ultrasound. However, by sensitivity, AFP test has a sensitivity of 25% to 65%, and ultrasound has a sensitivity of over 60%. Liver cancer is a more common cancer, and the cases are increasing. For instance, in the UK, mortality rates from HCC is expected to rise by 14% by 2025, representing the largest increase in any cancer.

Liver Cancer Diagnostics Market Drivers and Opportunities

Increasing Diagnosis Due to Strategic Initiatives to Favor Market

In June 2020, NCI scientists developed new test for screening hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), the most common form of liver cancer. This screening involves blood test for investigation of the patient’s previous exposure to certain viruses. Such screening leads to early detection and diagnosis, mainly because cancers in the late or advanced stages are detected, and by then, they are often incurable. Furthermore, NCI also launched the CCR Liver Cancer Program to develop new methods for early detection, diagnosis, and treatment, with the aim to improve HCC patients’ outcomes. Additionally, the National Institutes of Health (NIH) started its clinical trials network to evaluate possible aids and problems of promising new cancer screening technologies and to govern the efficient methods for integrating these innovations into standard care protocols.

Increasing Research And Development (R&D) Expenditure

In 2021, Elecsys GALAD research and development (R&D) expenditure was US$ 14.65 billion and in 2020 it was US$ 13.17 billion. It has increased by 14% on a core basis. Furthermore, F. Hoffmann-La Roche Ltd R&D have increased mainly for late-stage investments in oncology, ophthalmology, and personalized healthcare. Additionally, in June 2020, scientists from National Institutes of Health (NIH) launched blood tests to improve liver cancer screening which are managed by researchers at the National Cancer Institute (NCI). Therefore, the mounting R&D investments and development of diagnostic tests for liver cancer are driving the liver cancer diagnostics market.
