Global Cardiac Biomarkers Diagnostics Industry, 2024-2029

Rising Prevalence of CVD and High Sensitivity POCT Driving Transformational Growth in Cardiac Biomarkers Diagnostics

The global cardiac biomarkers diagnostics market is forecast to record robust growth with the increased prevalence of cardiovascular disease (CVD), multiplex biomarkers, advancements in diagnostic testing technology, higher POCT adoption rates, and an intensive focus on preventive healthcare. CVDs are a leading cause of mortality globally, highlighting the importance of early detection and intervention. The World Health Organization (WHO) estimates that in 2030, 23.3 million individuals will die from CVDs. Among these, acute myocardial infarction (AMI), acute coronary syndrome, and heart failure capture the greatest interest of researchers and healthcare professionals. Due to the high frequency-one-third of deaths-of this pathology globally, AMI is a key focus for WHO.

Advancements in high-sensitivity cardiac troponin assays for AMI, such as Roche's Elecsys(R) Troponin T hs make them vital in emergency departments throughout Europe and Asia, speeding up diagnosis and enhancing patient outcomes. Asia-Pacific is the fastest-growing region with high, untapped growth potential.

Lab-based and POCT segments serve critical, distinct roles in the cardiac biomarkers diagnostics market. Lab tests provide high sensitivity and precision, which is essential for detailed risk assessment and ongoing observation. In contrast, POCT delivers rapid results at the patient's side, facilitating prompt decision-making in emergencies and remote locations. This balance of speed and accuracy ensures continued demand for both testing methods.

The market is moderately competitive driven by advances in biomarkers assays and technology alongside a continuous push for enhanced accuracy and high sensitivity of assays. Six players dominate the market: Roche Diagnostics, Abbott Rapid Diagnostics (formally Alere), Quidel Corporation, bioMerieux, Siemens Healthineers, and Danaher Corporation. There are limited players in lab analyzers, making this segment consolidated, while the assays space is more fragmented owing to the presence of numerous players. Labs are essential for precise testing and complex analysis, managing multi-marker panels (e.g., BNP, CK-MB, myoglobin, and troponin) to provide a comprehensive view of cardiac health.

This research service provides an overview of the global cardiac biomarkers diagnostics industry and a 6-year global market revenue forecast from 2024 to 2029. The geographical scope covers four regions: North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, and the Middle East, North Africa, and South Asia (MENASA) and Latin America. The detailed examination of the cardiac biomarkers diagnostics market includes:

• Lab-based standardized tests that are approved by regulators and widely used by centralized labs. The biomarkers covered in this lab-based cardiac biomarkers segment include troponins, high-sensitivity troponins, BNP/NT-proBNP, hs-CRP, CK-MB biomarkers, and other biomarkers such as Neuregulin-1beta, ST2, Galectin, lipid profiles, and Copeptin.
• POCT covers troponins, BNP, CK-MB, D-dimer, and myoglobin biomarkers for the global market. The study excludes laboratory-developed tests that are internally designed for specialized use without pre-market approvals.

Cardiac biomarkers are substances released into the bloodstream in response to heart damage or stress. They diagnose, assess risk, and manage conditions such as heart failure, myocardial infarction, and acute coronary syndrome. Testing locations discussed in the study include independent laboratories, physicians' offices, urgent care facilities, nursing facilities, hospitals, and emergency departments/rooms. The cardiac biomarkers diagnostics coverage includes vendor analysis encompassing instruments, consumables, reagents, kits, and assays.
