Challenges and Opportunities: One of the primary challenges hindering the companion diagnostics market forecast is the extensive drug attrition rate during clinical trials, which, in turn, poses financial constraints for diagnostics providers. However, the co-development of companion diagnostics, along with therapeutic products, is streamlining the commercialization of drug candidates.
Rising Need for Targeted Therapies
The increasing adoption of companion diagnostic tests (CDXs) in decision-making for treatment related to targeted therapies in lung cancer is augmenting the market growth. Additionally, patients who receive companion diagnostics as part of their initial treatment have more survival benefits than those who are not tested. Besides this, the increasing prevalence of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is inflating the usage of oncology companion diagnostic tests for the disease. According to the Lung Cancer Research Foundation, an estimated 236,740 individuals were diagnosed with lung cancer in 2022 across the United States, thereby fueling the demand for lung cancer companion diagnostics. The elevating number of tests receiving approval from governing authorities is also bolstering the market. For example, in August 2022, the U.S. FDA granted premarket approval to Thermo Fisher Scientific's Oncomine Dx Target Test as a companion diagnostic (CDx) to identify individuals whose tumors have a HER2 (ERBB2) activating mutations (SNVs & Exon 20 Insertion) in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).
Favorable Regulatory Landscape for Companion Diagnostics
Government bodies and key companies across the countries are focusing on drug approvals to cater to unmet cancer care needs. For instance, in January 2022, PREMIA Holdings (HK) Limited and Amoy Diagnostics Co. Ltd developed the AmoyDx Pan Lung Cancer PCR Panel (the 'PLC Panel') in Japan as a reimbursed companion diagnostic for numerous anti-cancer agents. Similarly, in October 2021, the United States Food and Drug Administration approved Agilent's Ki-67 IHC MIB-1 pharmDx (Dako Omnis), which helped in identifying patients with early breast cancer (EBC) at an elevating risk of disease recurrence. In addition, in August 2023, Agilent Technologies, Inc. received European IVDR certification for companion diagnostic assay. These approvals encourage key players to develop enhanced companion diagnostic tests, which are expected to augment the global market over the forecasted period.
Development of Novel Tests
Key players are focusing on launching advanced tests for companion diagnostics by collaborating with other prominent players, thereby resulting in better patient outcomes. For instance, in February 2022, Genetron Holdings Limited, a major precision oncology platform company in China specializing in early cancer screening products, molecular profiling tests, and companion diagnostics development, entered into an agreement with HUTCHMED (China) Limited to introduce a companion diagnostic (CDx). Furthermore, key market players are also developing enhanced therapeutic options. For example, in July 2021, Labcorp launched Therascreen KRAS PCR Mutation Analysis, which is a companion diagnostic to identify patients suffering from non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) who are eligible for therapy with LUMAKRAS (sotorasib).
