The solid tumor testing market has seen considerable growth due to a variety of factors.
•In recent times, the market size for solid tumor testing has seen robust growth. The market, which is projected to raise from $27.96 billion in 2024 to $30 billion in 2025, is expected to have a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.3%.
The historical growth has been driven by factors such as personalized or precision medicine, inadequate tumor-specific drug delivery, low treatment effectiveness, prohibitive expenses, and simplified approaches to cancer chemotherapy treatments.
The solid tumor testing market is expected to maintain its strong growth trajectory in upcoming years.
• In the coming years, the market size for solid tumor testing is predicted to experience robust growth. The expected rate of growth is a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.5%,
leading to a market value of $40.06 billion by 2029. The projected growth within this period can be associated with a rising cancer prevalence, enhancement in healthcare infrastructure, emergence of AI and IoT-based diagnostic tools, and escalating government initiatives. The forecast period is also set to see significant trends like the development of diagnostic instruments, the launch of nanocarrier-based treatments, strategic partnerships, and the advent of next-generation testing devices.

The projected rise in cancer prevalence is likely to fuel the expansion of the solid tumor testing market. Cancer is characterized by the body's rogue cells proliferating and spreading uncontrollably. These abnormal cells, referred to as cancer cells, can infiltrate nearby tissues and organs, and in some circumstances, they can disseminate to other body parts via the bloodstream or lymphatic system. Approximately 90% of adult cancers are solid tumors. Solid tumor testing aids in identifying cancer cells within the blood of patients bearing solid tumors, even before the cancer becomes detectable via imaging tests. For instance, a report released by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, a US-based national public health agency, in June 2023 indicated that there were 1,603,844 new cancer cases and 602,347 cancer-related deaths in the US in 2020. Further, 403 new cancer cases and 144 cancer-related deaths were reported per 100,000 people. Thus, the escalating prevalence of cancer is stimulating the development of the solid tumor testing market.

The trend of innovative liquid biopsy test solutions is gaining traction in the solid tumor testing market. To secure their standing and competitive edge in the market, key companies are committed to the development of these innovative biopsy testing solutions. For instance, NeoGenomics Inc., an American testing laboratory firm, rolled out a comprehensive selection of three liquid biopsy tests for solid tumors in June 2020. These groundbreaking tests are capable of detecting cancerous cells in solid tumor patients' blood, even before the cancer is identifiable via imaging tests. Doctors can utilize these tests to inform decisions regarding further testing or treatment. These tests are non-invasive, facilitate early detection, contribute to personalized treatment plans, and have FDA approval. Additionally, the three new tests guarantee results in seven days or less, which can significantly reduce the time burden on clinicians.
