The global laboratory developed test (LDT) market is experiencing growth driven by various factors. These include the increasing demand for in vitro diagnostic tests that are currently unavailable in the market for laboratory developed tests, the high demand for personalized medicine, and the absence of regulatory approvals required for LDTs.
Among the different technology types, the molecular diagnostics segment accounted for the largest share of revenue in 2023. This growth can be attributed to the growing geriatric population and the increasing need for early disease detection. Molecular diagnostics tests are utilized for detecting major parasitic, bacterial, and viral infections. Advanced technologies such as in situ hybridization and PCR have addressed the drawbacks of traditional molecular testing, including complexity in growing organisms, long turnaround time, lack of sensitivity, and poor in vitro kinetics.
The Asia Pacific market is expected to contribute significantly to the market share over the forecast period. In 2023, North America held the largest revenue share due to factors such as increased healthcare expenditure, a high prevalence of chronic diseases, a rise in the geriatric population, and increased government funding. The North America laboratory developed test market is estimated to reach USD 7.4 billion by 2029, with a CAGR of 7.0% during the forecast period. The region dominates the global LDT market in terms of revenue generation, driven by increasing healthcare expenditure, the prevalence of chronic diseases, the presence of a large number of players, and the positive impact of the COVID-19 outbreak. The outbreak of the coronavirus led to an increased demand for quick on-site screening, resulting in a rise in the number of tests conducted. Consequently, many companies are focusing on manufacturing and developing novel tests. Additionally, with the increasing prevalence of cancer and rapid advancements in cancer diagnosis, the market is experiencing significant growth.
