Neurological Biomarkers Market Drivers

Increasing Prevalence of Cancer to Fuel Research on Biomarker 

• As biomarkers are important indicators of various health or disease traits. Cancer goes through a multistage carcinogenesis procedure involving multiple events from various molecular pathways, which makes its diagnosis, prognosis and therapy extremely complicated. Due to this complexity, a single marker is insufficient. In addition, each cancer type has its unique molecular profile. Identification of new biomarkers leads to the development of targeted therapies that target dysregulation in cancer. The increasing prevalence of cancer will, in turn, stimulate biomarker research and thereby boosting the growth of neurological biomarkers market. 

Advancement in Precision Medicine 

• Research related to biomarker in neurodegenerative disease is a growing field in the personalized medicine. Numerous molecules have been evaluated and linked to different neurodegenerative diseases. The evolution of precision medicine has influenced the biopharmaceutical industry widely. Many players from biopharma to diagnostics organizations with several functions, like research and development to commercial operations, will experience a massive transformation. This is expected to have a positive influence on the growth of the market. 

Restraints 

High Complexity of Data 

• Biomarker research involves the integration of complex data sets, which is one of the major challenges to market growth. Biomarker data is varied, high-volume, and fast evolving. This is because it can be derived from thousands of different platforms including conventional blood tests, NGS, FISH testing, and more. Lack of standards to report these data, especially for NGS based tests presents a challenge for interpretation and aggregation across organizations adopting different methods. Furthermore, differences in biomarker testing throughout racial, ethnic, and economic groups further hamper data accessibility and completeness.  

High Complexity of Diseases and Virus Structure 

• The inherent complexity and heterogeneity of diseases constitute a bottleneck in the development of biomarkers. Due to their diverse molecular pathways and presentations in the clinic, universal biomarkers are hard to identify. Disease heterogeneity makes this more difficult, as every patient has unique molecular signatures, making it challenging to find common biomarkers applicable across populations. Additionally, disease progression is extremely dynamic that needs biomarkers to adjust to the transforming conditions with time. These complexities hinder translating biomarker research into clinical practice, where biomarkers must precisely highlight the varied disease manifestations for efficient diagnosis, prognosis, and treatment monitoring.
