The breast cancer liquid biopsy is a noninvasive alternative technique that makes use of blood as a sample and is chosen more than surgical tissue biopsy. There are various biomarkers that are used as a tool for detection of breast cancer such as circulating tumor cells (CTC), extracellular vesicles, and circulating tumor DNA. Breast cancer liquid biopsy aids to monitor progression of breast cancer disease based on heterogeneity of tumor cells in advanced stages of breast cancer. Moreover, breast cancer liquid biopsy test detects epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) gene mutations that support clinicians to choose the right breast cancer treatment at the right time.
Rise in prevalence of breast cancer, increase in demand for non-invasive breast cancer treatment, technological advancements in breast cancer liquid biopsy, availability of funding for liquid biopsy R&D, and increase in breast cancer liquid biopsy reagent approvals are the major factors that drive growth of the breast cancer liquid biopsy market. In addition, increase in patient awareness toward breast cancer treatment, advantages of breast cancer liquid biopsy tests over traditional tests, rise in adoption of liquid biopsy tests, surge in pre-screening programs for breast cancer detection, easy accessibility and high adoption of polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and next-generation sequencing (NGS) among healthcare professionals, and surge in demand for breast cancer liquid biopsy reagent kits are some other factors that contribute toward growth of the market. However, limitations associated with liquid biopsy testing and lack of access and awareness regarding breast cancer liquid biopsy in underdeveloped countries are expected to hinder growth of the market.
