The Global Multicancer Screening Market Size is valued at 1.85 billion in 2022 and is predicted to reach 6.57 billion by the year 2031 at a 15.32% CAGR during the forecast period for 2023-2031.
Key Industry Insights & Findings from the Report:
- The global ageing population is more susceptible to cancer, driving the need for effective screening methods.
- Increasing healthcare expenditure, particularly in developed regions, facilitates greater access to advanced screening technologies and services.
- North America dominated the market and accounted for a global revenue share in 2023.
- Inadequate Knowledge of Multicancer Screening Tests and Too Expensive to Use in Preventive Care.
The increasing incidence of cancer and the requirement for early diagnosis diagnostics, which make simple disease management possible and thereby reduce the death rate, are the main drivers of market revenue growth. 2020 saw about 10 million cancer-related deaths worldwide, making it the leading cause of death. The most frequent cancers in terms of new cases in 2020 were breast, lung, colon and rectum, prostate, skin, and stomach.
Consequently, there is a peak in demand for MCEDS as cancer incidence rises. Multi-Cancer Early Detection (MCED) testing, a minimally invasive technology, can identify malignancies from many organ sites with just one test, reducing the number of operations and saving time.
Large-scale R&D for the creation of MCED is another element boosting market revenue growth. For instance, research to identify and validate novel biomarker combinations that detect various malignancies early was initiated in Singapore on July 8, 2022. For instance, the biotechnology business MIRXES Ptr Ltd. disclosed that Project CADENCE had started following the signing of a memorandum of agreement (Cancer Detected Early can be Cured). This project is the first large-scale clinical research project of its kind in the world, and it will enable the development of a multi-cancer early detection test for up to nine cancers with a high incidence and mortality rate, including lung, breast, colorectal, liver, stomach (gastric), esophageal, ovarian, pancreatic, and prostate cancers.

Market Segmentation:
The Multicancer Screening market is segmented on the basis of test type, technology, sample, method, cancer type, application, and end-user. Test type segment includes Laboratory Developed Tests (LDTs) and In-Vitro Diagnostics (IVDs). The technology segment includes Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS), Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR), Immunohistochemistry (IHC), Fluorescence In-Situ Hybridization (FISH), and Other Technologies. By sample, the market is segmented into Tissue, Blood, Saliva, Buccal Swabs, and Others.
The method segment includes DNA, RNA, and Proteins. By cancer type, the market is segmented as Breast and Gynecologic, Gastrointestinal, Endocrine, Genitourinary, Skin, Brain/Nervous System, Sarcoma, Hematological Malignancies, Lung, Head and Neck, and Other Cancer Types. Application segment covers Clinical and Research. By end user, the market is categorized into Hospitals, Diagnostic and Clinical Laboratories, Academic and Research Institutions, and Other End Users
Based On End User, The Hospitals Segment Is Accounted As A Major Contributor In The Multicancer Screening Market
With the majority of market revenue, the hospitals segment dominated the entire market. The prevalence of specialized medical professionals and healthcare workers who are involved in diagnosis and treatment is responsible for this segment's dominance. Hospitals are used as a platform to inform and raise public knowledge of various illnesses and ailments. The target audience knows very little about MCED, a new technology. As a result, hospitals examine asymptomatic people for several types to facilitate therapy.
LDTs Segment Witness Growth At A Rapid Rate
Due to the fact that it offers testing for several cancers, the LDT category had the highest revenue share. Gene panels target the identification of hereditary malignancies, and rising public awareness of hereditary diseases is expediting demand for genetic testing that can identify cancers early and enhance patient survival rates.
In The Region, The Europe Multicancer Screening Market Holds Significant Revenue Share
In Europe, the use of multi-cancer early detection has expanded in industries including hospitals, labs, diagnostic centers, and other significant market developments. The global market expansion in Europe is anticipated to be encouraged by the rising population, which is linked to a greater vulnerability to cancer-related chronic diseases and the economical diagnosis of chronic diseases in rural areas.
The market has grown significantly as a result of the increasing number of instances in Europe. For instance, according to a 2019 article by Eurostat, among the EU Member States, Hungary and Croatia had the highest standardized death rates for cancer, each with at least 300 per 100 000 residents. Due to these reasons, the European Union has started and intensified its attention on regional multi-cancer early detection programs.
Recent Developments:
- In June 2022, Roche introduced the BenchMark ULTRA PLUS system, a cutting-edge tool for cancer diagnostics that facilitates prompt and precise patient care. The BenchMark ULTRA PLUS tissue staining system provided a streamlined process, improved testing efficiency, and integrated ecologically friendly characteristics. This enabled pathologists to provide doctors and patients with accurate and timely results of superior quality.
