Minimal Residual Disease Testing Market Size, Share, Forecast, & Trends Analysis by Offering, Technology (PCR, Flow Cytometry, NGS), Application (Lymphoma, Leukemia, Multiple Myeloma, Solid Tumor), Sample (Blood, Bone Marrow)-Global Forecast to 2031
According to a new market research report titled, 'Minimal Residual Disease Testing Market Size, Share, Forecast, & Trends Analysis by Offering, Technology (PCR, Flow Cytometry, NGS), Application (Lymphoma, Leukemia, Multiple Myeloma, Solid Tumor), Sample (Blood, Bone Marrow)-Global Forecast to 2031' the minimal residual disease testing market is expected to reach $4.45 billion by 2031, at a CAGR of 14.6% during the forecast period 2024-2031.
Minimal Residual Disease (MRD) testing is crucial for cancer-affected patients. MRD tests provide early insights into whether a treated cancer patient is at risk of relapse or cancer recurrence. Early information helps physicians make treatment decisions depending on the cancer type and recurrence rates, which may lead to improved patient outcomes and better quality of life. Additionally, MRD testing is being increasingly used in clinical trials by pharmaceutical and biopharmaceutical companies focused on the development of cancer therapies. These are some of the major factors driving the adoption of MRD testing globally.
The growth of the minimal residual disease testing market is driven by the growing incidence of cancer, the increasing application of MRD in hematological malignancies, the high recurrence rates of some cancers, and increasing investments and funding for MRD testing. Moreover, emerging economies, the rising adoption of personalized treatments & targeted therapies in the field of oncology, and the growing use of MRD testing in cases of solid tumors are expected to generate market growth opportunities.
Rising Adoption of Personalized Treatments & Targeted Therapies in the Field of Oncology
As researchers are able to identify the unique genetic profiles of tumors, MRD testing is gaining traction in personalized oncology medicine. By identifying residual cancer cells in a patient, physicians can make decisions about the intensity of the treatments or tailor treatments based on the individual's response to treatments. MRD testing goes hand in hand with personalized medicine to improve therapeutic efficacy and make patient management more precise.
The integration of MRD testing into clinical pathways supports the validation of targeted therapies. As new drugs are being developed to target specific genetic mutations, MRD testing can provide valuable insights into treatment effectiveness. For instance, in 2023, the U.S. FDA approved 16 personalized treatments for rare diseases, of which seven were for cancer. Combining targeted therapies and MRD testing can facilitate early intervention strategies, potentially preventing relapse and improving long-term outcomes for patients. Thus, the shift toward personalized treatments and targeted therapies in oncology is expected to generate growth opportunities for the players operating in the Minimal Residual Disease (MRD) testing market.

Among the offerings studied in this report, in 2024, the assays & reagents segment is expected to account for the largest share of 76.7% of the minimal residual disease testing market. The recurrent use of assays & reagents, increasing research & development in the field of oncology leading to the emergence of new MRD tests, market players' focus on introducing new assays for minimal residual disease testing, and the rising adoption of MRD testing in clinical trials, contribute to the substantial market share of this segment.
Among the technologies studied in this report, in 2024, the flow cytometry segment is expected to account for the largest share of 42.7% of the minimal residual disease testing market. This segment's significant market share is attributed to the technology's ability to provide real-time, quantitative data on the number and type of cancer cells in a sample, the widespread availability of flow cytometers, and the relatively lower costs of flow cytometry consumables compared to more advanced technologies such as Next-generation Sequencing (NGS).
Among the applications studied in this report, in 2024, the blood cancers segment is expected to account for the larger share of the minimal residual disease testing market. The segment's large share is attributed to the growing incidence of blood cancers, the advent of new diagnostic technologies, the rising focus on precision oncology, high investments in MRD testing for blood cancers, and the wide availability of MRD testing solutions for blood cancers.
Among the sample types studied in this report, in 2024, the blood segment is expected to account for the largest share of the minimal residual disease testing market. This segment holds a large market share due to the growing cancer incidence, the noninvasiveness of procedures used to obtain blood samples, and better patient compliance in the case of regular blood-based MRD monitoring.
Among the customer types studied in this report, in 2024, the pharmaceutical & biopharmaceutical companies segment is expected to account for the largest share of the minimal residual disease testing market. This segment's large market share is attributed to the high adoption of MRD testing in clinical trials for oncology therapies, high investments in oncology drug development and research, and supportive initiatives by regulatory authorities to promote MRD testing in drug trials.
Among the geographies studied in this report, in 2024, APAC is estimated to register the highest CAGR during the forecast period. Asia-Pacific is becoming an increasingly active market for healthcare product manufacturers and service providers due to improving healthcare infrastructure in the region. Asia-Pacific's growing population is the key factor driving the region's healthcare sector. This growth is attracting investments from private and public organizations in the development of MRD testing solutions. The rising incidence of cancer, improving healthcare infrastructure, the growing focus on personalized therapies, increasing cancer screening initiatives, and the availability of funding for cancer research are driving market growth in Asia-Pacific.
