Circulating Tumor Cells Market Growth & Trends

The global circulating tumor cells market size is estimated treach USD 24.96 billion by 2030, expanding at a CAGR of 12.2% from 2025 t2030, according ta new report by Grand View Research, Inc. This is attributed trising prevalence of cancer worldwide, increasing demand for non-invasive cancer diagnostic tools, and advancements in circulating tumor cells (CTC) technologies.

In recent years, CTCs are increasingly used for determining the prognosis of cancer and helping clinicians decide the type of therapy required for cancer treatment. CTCs have wide applications in several areas of cancer management—early detection of cancer, risk assessment of cancer recurrence, guidance for therapies, and continuous monitoring of a patient during cancer treatment. The development of various tumor markers utilizing CTCs, which can be used tdiagnose or monitor cancer, is expected tboost the adoption of CTCs over the forecast period. Therefore, it can be concluded that the detection of CTCs in the peripheral blood of patients with cancer acts as a promising diagnostic tool. For instance, quantitation and genomic profiling of CTCs enables cost-effective & accurate noninvasive monitoring of prostate cancer. The detection of CTCs is predictive for survival of cancer patients.

The limited applicability of these cells in rare cancers has hampered revenue growth ta certain extent. Circulating tumor cells are not applicable ttumors characterized by EpCAM negativity or low expression, such as neurogenic cancers. For instance, there is negligible evidence for the characterization of circulating tumor cells for sarcoma. Conversely, numerous methods are being studied for the isolation of these cells, which include methods based on epithelial antigen-targeted antibodies, anticipating tovercome these challenges in the near future.

However, in recent years, there has been a push for practical application, largely as a result of a wave of large players centralizing the technology through acquisitions and numerous partnerships with pharmaceutical firms tadvance the formation of a value chain and speed up the CTC market’s growth. For instance, in June 2023, tdevelop a novel test for the detection of tumor cells that metastatic cancers shed intthe blood, the University of Washington School of Medicine collaborated with RareCyte, Inc., which is a biotech company headquartered in Seattle. In addition, according tthe research, the understanding of the circulating tumor cells in the bloodstream can track the changes in tumor cells, thus optimizing the treatment.
