Report Overview
The Global Cancer Tumor Profiling Market reached US$ 9.5 billion in 2023 and is expected to reach US$ 19.15 billion by 2031, growing at a CAGR of 9.4% during the forecast period 2024-2031.
Tumor profiling is a laboratory test to check for gene mutations or other alterations that make up the tumor biology and underlie the cancer growth. This information can help physicians build a personalized treatment plan based on the tumor profile. Tumor profiling is the technology oncologists use to determine if the pathways of a patient’s tumor match up with available targeted treatments. Tumor profiling allows for deep analysis of a tumor’s molecular characteristics that are responsible for cancer progression and therapy resistance.
Tumor profiling, also known as biomarker testing, is a detailed and sensitive laboratory analysis of cancer cells. The purpose of this testing expose specific biomarker mutations and identify targeted therapies matched to any found mutations. Tumor profiling can help guide and identify the most effective treatment plan. Tumor profiling starts with obtaining a sample of tumor tissue. The tissue is usually collected through a core biopsy.

Market Dynamics: Drivers
Increasing prevalence of cancer
The demand for the global cancer tumor profiling market is driven by multiple factors. The rising prevalence of cancers propels the market growth. For instance, according to an article published by nih.gov in January 2023, 1,958,310 new cancer cases and 609,820 cancer deaths are projected to occur in the United States. Cancer incidence increased for prostate cancer by 3% annually from 2014 through 2019 after two decades of decline, translating to an additional 99,000 new cases.
Moreover, according to wcrf.org, including non-melanoma skin cancer (NMSC) there were 19,976,499 cancer cases in 2022. When NMSC was excluded, this number dropped to 18,741,966 cancer cases around the world in 2022. Of these, 9,566,825 were in men and 9,175,141 in women. Moreover, according to IARC, There were close to 20 million new cases of cancer in the year 2022 (including nonmelanoma skin cancers [NMSCs]) alongside 9.7 million deaths from cancer (including NMSC). The estimates suggest that approximately one in five men or women develop cancer in a lifetime, whereas around one in nine men and one in 12 women die from it. Lung cancer was the most frequently diagnosed cancer in 2022, responsible for almost 2.5 million new cases, or one in eight cancers worldwide (12.4% of all cancers globally).
Restraints
Factors such as high cost associated with the procedure, lack of healthcare infrastructure, lack of reimbursement policies, and technical issues in sample collection and storage conditions are expected to hamper the market.
Market Segment Analysis
The global cancer tumor profiling market is segmented based on cancer type, technology type, biomarker type, application, end-user, and region.
The segment next-generation sequencing accounted for approximately 48.9% of the global cancer tumor profiling market share
The next-generation sequencing segment is expected to hold the largest market share over the forecast period. In this segment, technological advancements would drive this market.
Next-generation sequencing (NGS), also known as massively parallel sequencing, represents an effective way to capture a large amount of genomic information about a cancer. Most NGS technologies revolve around sequencing by synthesis. Each DNA fragment to be sequenced is bound to an array, and then DNA polymerase adds labeled nucleotides sequentially. A high-resolution camera captures the signal from each nucleotide becoming integrated and notes the spatial coordinates and time. The sequence at each spot can then be inferred by a computer program to generate a contiguous DNA sequence, referred to as a read.
For instance, in April 2023, Agilent Technologies Inc. announced the launch of the Agilent SureSelect Cancer CGP Assay designed for somatic variant profiling for a broad range of solid tumor types. The pan-cancer assay design is based on an NGS panel comprising 679 genes globally curated from leading cancer databases and in partnership with key clinical cancer researchers.
Market Geographical Analysis
North America accounted for approximately 43.6% of the global cancer tumor profiling market share
North America region is expected to hold the largest market share over the forecast period. The rising incidence of cancer, and technological advancements, in this region, help to propel the market.
For instance, according to an article published by nih.gov in January 2024, 2,001,140 new cancer cases and 611,720 cancer deaths are projected to occur in the United States. Cancer mortality continued to decline through 2021, averting over 4 million deaths since 1991 because of reductions in smoking, earlier detection for some cancers, and improved treatment options in both adjuvant and metastatic settings. However, these gains are threatened by increasing incidence for 6 of the top 10 cancers.
Moreover, in September 2023, Pillar Biosciences, Inc., the leader in Decision Medicine, announced the global launch of oncoReveal Core LBx, a research-use-only (RUO) next-generation sequencing (NGS) kit designed to enable laboratories with a solution for liquid biopsy-based pan-cancer tumor profiling.
