HER2 Testing Market Segmentation:
Cancer Type Segment Analysis
Based on cancer type, the breast cancer segment in the HER2 testing market is anticipated to hold the largest revenue share of about 40% during the forecast period. Throughout the projection period, breast cancer is anticipated to have the greatest growth rate in the HER 2 testing market. The risk factors that raise the incidence of breast cancer include aging, genetic mutations, reproductive history, having thick breasts, having a personal or family history of the disease, and drug exposure. HER3 genes change and produce additional copies of themselves in breast cancer. The purpose of HER2 testing is to determine whether the cancer is HER-2 positive and to determine whether the malignancy is responding to treatment or coming back after it has been stopped. In 2020, 685,000 people died worldwide from breast cancer, accounting for 2.3 million new diagnoses. Breast cancer is the most common cancer worldwide, with 7.8 million people surviving as of the end of 2020 who received a diagnosis within the previous five years.
End Users Segment Analysis
Based on end users, the hospital segment in the HER2 testing market is attributed to hold the largest revenue share of about 48% during the forecast period. This test was primarily used by clinicians in hospitals to identify tumors with higher-than-normal amounts of the HER2 protein or cancer cells with an excessive number of HER2 gene copies. Hospital laboratories examine a sample of breast cancer tissue retrieved during surgery or biopsy for HER2 levels in invasive breast tumors. Rather than diagnostic labs, the hospitals are equipped with state-of-the-art medical technology. Hospitals may readily obtain Fluorescence in Situ Hybridization (FISH) devices, which are a prerequisite for the HER 2 test. Therefore, the market for HER 2 testing is dominated by hospitals.
