(PharmaNewsWire.Com, August 21, 2018 ) In the year 2018, Global Non-Invasive Prenatal Testing Market was valued at USD 1.95 Billion. By the year 2023, it is predicted to reach USD 4.03 Billion with pace of 15.6% CAGR. There are different kinds of genetic tests for screening birth defects and inherited diseases. A simple blood sample is used to analyze DNA, which is also called as cell-free (cf-DNA) to determine a baby’s risk of different genetic disorder like Down syndrome. The gender of a fetus can also be found using NIPT. Non-Invasive Prenatal Testing is used to identify the most common chromosome anomalies such as, Patau Syndrome (Trisomy 13), Down syndrome (Trisomy 21), and Edwards Syndrome (Trisomy 18).
Growing risks of genetic disorders and growing interest for Non-Invasive techniques are estimated to drive the market.
Factors affecting market growth:
Factors like, the introduction of innovative and more advanced NIPT products. (+)
Feasibility and rising preference for non-invasive tests over invasive ones. (+)
Growing risk of chromosomal abnormalities in babies with growing maternal age and flexible reimbursement policies for NIPT. (+)
Major companies are playing a major role in expanding the boundaries of cf-DNA studies with attempts being at identifying about 20,000 genetic features through a single sample in a single reaction. (+)
Lower clinical validity of particularly the microdeletion segment is among the major restraints of the market. (-)
North America leads the Global Non-Invasive Prenatal Testing Market.
