The global cancer/tumor profiling market was valued at $13.30 billion in 2012. At the end of 2013, the market is estimated to be $14.99 billion and is poised to reach around $35 billion by 2018, growing at a CAGR of 18.50% from 2013 to 2018.

The global healthcare industry is witnessing a paradigm shift, skewed towards point-of-care diagnostics, cost-effective treatment modalities, and personalized medicine, which not only offers efficient early diagnosis, but also treats cancer conditions in order to reduce the healthcare cost and disease burden. Cancer/Tumor profiling is one such technology with the exact potential to revolutionize cancer diagnostics and therapeutics in the healthcare industry.

This market research report evaluates the global market of cancer/tumor profiling by geography, applications, technologies, and segment types. Further, the applications market is divided into five segments, namely Personalized Medicine, Diagnostics, Biomarker Discovery, Prognosis and Research Applications; the technologies section is divided into five segments, namely Next-Generation Sequencing, Quantitative PCR, Immunohistochemistry, FISH/CISH, and Microarray; and finally, the segment types is partitioned into four parts, namely Genomics, Proteomics, Metabolomics, and Epigenetics. Of the above-mentioned application segments, personalized medicine is the largest revenue segment and NGS is the potential revenue yielding technology.

The diagnostics, biomarker discovery, and prognosis applications offer vast opportunities for key players in this market. The launch of the first and only FDA-cleared IVDMIA breast cancer recurrence assay "MammaPrint", "ColoPrint" - a microarray-based gene expression profile for predicting the recurrence of stage II and III colon cancer patients, "Oncotype Dx" - a test that examines a breast cancer patients tumor tissue at a molecular level to give information about a patients individual disease, has acknowledged the potential of cancer/tumor profiling in diagnostics and prognosis. This scenario is expected to further revolutionize the industry towards massive growth in the next 5 to 10 years.

The global market for cancer/tumor profiling is expected to grow, backed by technological advancements, huge funds, and investments. The market is witnessing a trend towards the development of personalized medicine and point-of-care diagnostic tests for cancer. Additionally, the demand for safe and cost-effective drugs for the treatment of cancer (which can be fulfilled by cancer/tumor profiling therapeutics), will fuel the market growth. However, the market will also experience improvements in biomarker discovery and prognosis areas during the forecast period.

The key players in the cancer/tumor profiling market are Boreal Genomics Inc. (U.S.), Caris Life Sciences (U.S.), Genomic Health Inc. (U.S.), Illumina Inc. (U.S.), Life Technologies Corporation (U.S.), NeoGenomics Laboratories (U.S.), Oxford Gene Technology Ltd. (U.K.), Precision Therapeutics Inc. (U.S.), bioTheranostics (U.S.), Proteome Sciences PLC (U.K.), Agendia (The Netherlands), Nanostring Technologies (U.S.), Rational Therapeutics (U.S.), Oncopath Laboratories (U.S.), and RiboMed Biotechnologies Inc. (U.S.).
