Description

The Asia Pacific genetic testing services market is projected to grow significantly, reaching an estimated US$ 2,550.10 million by 2031, up from US$ 728.38 million in 2023. This growth represents a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 17.0% from 2023 to 2031.

Executive Summary and Market Analysis

The genetic testing services market in the Asia Pacific (APAC) region is experiencing rapid expansion, driven by several factors including increased healthcare investments, advancements in technology, and heightened awareness of genetic disorders. Key countries such as China, India, Japan, and South Korea are witnessing a notable rise in demand for genetic testing, particularly in areas such as cancer diagnosis, prenatal screening, and the identification of rare genetic diseases. The growth of personalized medicine, alongside advancements in genomic research, is further propelling the market forward. Additionally, government initiatives aimed at improving healthcare infrastructure and promoting genetic research are expected to bolster ongoing market development. The presence of major industry players is also fostering innovation and enhancing accessibility within the region.

Market Segmentation Analysis

The genetic testing services market can be segmented based on service type, disease, and service provider.

1. Service Type: The market is divided into several categories, including predictive testing, carrier testing, prenatal testing, newborn screening, diagnostic genetic testing, and others. In 2023, the predictive testing segment held the largest market share.
2. Disease: The market is also segmented by disease type, including cancer, cardiovascular diseases, metabolic diseases, and other conditions. The cancer segment was the largest contributor to the market in 2023.
3. Service Provider: The market is categorized by service provider type, which includes hospital-based laboratories, diagnostic laboratories, and other providers. Hospital-based laboratories accounted for the largest share of the market in 2023.

Market Outlook

The increasing prevalence of genetic diseases globally is a significant concern, as these conditions can severely impact health. Genetic diseases often present with uncommon symptoms and are frequently non-curable. Many of these diseases are rare and arise from mutations in individuals' genetic makeup. According to the World Health Organization (WHO) in 2021, approximately 10 out of every 1,000 individuals are affected by single-gene diseases, indicating that between 70 million and 80 million people worldwide are living with such conditions. The Global Genes organization has identified around 7,000 rare diseases and disorders, with new ones being discovered regularly.

Research from the University of Sheffield estimates that around 300 million people globally are affected by genetic diseases. A report from MJH Life Sciences in 2022 highlighted that approximately 300,000 newborns are diagnosed with sickle cell disease each year, representing about 5% of the global population.

In the Asia Pacific and Middle East regions, a significant number of individuals are diagnosed with genetic diseases, partly due to the prevalence of consanguineous marriages in many communities. Such marriages contribute to the rising incidence of genetic disorders, thereby increasing the demand for genetic testing services, which in turn drives market growth.

Country Insights

The Asia Pacific genetic testing services market includes several key countries: China, Japan, India, Australia, South Korea, and others. China held the largest market share in 2023.

In recent years, awareness of the benefits of genetic testing has significantly increased in China. The availability of direct-to-consumer (DTC) tests has improved convenience and accessibility, positively influencing market growth. Chinese scientists and authorities have emphasized the potential of genetic material in studying and treating diseases, developing pharmaceuticals, and understanding congenital disabilities.

According to a study titled Spotlight on Gene Therapy in China, published in July 2020, over 57 million individuals in China suffer from genetic diseases, with approximately 4 million new cancer cases reported annually. The Global Cancer Observatory reported a total of 4,568,754 cancer cases in China in 2020. Furthermore, an article published in February 2023 noted that around 20 million people in China are affected by rare diseases.

The shift from a one-child policy to a universal two-child policy in China is expected to increase the number of births, thereby enhancing the demand for newborn genetic testing. Additionally, the Precision Medicine Initiative, launched by the Chinese Academy of Sciences in 2016, aims to sequence over 100 million human genomes by 2030, with a budget of US$ 9.2 billion. In July 2021, BGI Group, a Chinese gene company, developed a prenatal test in collaboration with the military, which collects genetic data from millions of women for extensive research on traits and abnormalities such as Down syndrome. These factors are anticipated to significantly drive the growth of the genetic testing services market in China.
