Predictive Genetic Testing & Consumer/Wellness Genomics Market: Report Offers Intelligence And Forecast Till 2017 - 2025

Global Predictive Genetic Testing & Consumer/Wellness Genomics Market: Snapshot

The use of genetic test, as pre-symptomatic testing of diseases, has gained popularity in predicting future risks by providing information on an individual’s chromosomes and genetic mutations. Predictive genetic testing is relatively new but rapidly emerging arena in public health practices, especially in developed nations. It is increasingly being used to guide nutritional strategies and training outcomes for a number of disorders. Common disorders include Huntington's disease, cystic fibrosis, phenylketonuria, Down's syndrome, breast cancer, and sickle cell anemia. Usually conducted in healthy persons, it involves identifying certain genetic traits that may cause disease in later years of life.

The offerings of predictive genetic testing and consumer/wellness genomics market is expected to play a seminal role in the ultimate discovery of personalized therapies and medicines. World over, several direct-to-consumer (DTC) genetic testing and healthcare providers offer genetic testing products and services that are not essentially focused on disease risk but offer information that are being used by individuals, to offer information, with different levels of scientific validity, to guide their decision in fitness, diet, and athletic ability.

The type of genetic testing which is employed to diagnose or predict the gene mutation or genetic changes linked to a disease is called predictive genetic testing. It is usually used in a symptomatic person to check future risks. The branch of genomics concerned with the sequencing and interpretation of the individual is called consumer genomics, while the one which predicts the genetic factors contributing to healthy living is called wellness genomics. This type of testing enables a person to make good lifestyle changes and choices.

The rising health care awareness and shifting population preference toward a healthy lifestyle have led to the expansion of the market for predictive genetics testing & consumer/wellness genomics. Factors such as the rising attention of the government and other private regulatory bodies toward public health care, increased effectiveness & quality of genetic testing, prevalence of chronic diseases & genetic diseases such as Parkinson’s & cystic fibrosis are expected to drive the global predictive genetics testing & consumer genomics market during the forecast period. Furthermore, the rising need to understand one’s family history is propelling the global market as well. However, stringent regulatory rules and ethics for the approval of genetic testing could limit the market’s development through 2025. 

In terms of test type, the global predictive genetics testing & consumer/wellness genomics market can be categorized into the predictive testing, consumer genomics, and wellness genomics segments. Predictive testing can be further divided into the genetic susceptibility testing, predictive diagnostic, and population screening sub-segments. On the basis of application, the global market can be split into the following groups: cancer screening, cardiovascular screening, musculoskeletal screening, diabetic screening, Parkinson’s / Alzheimer disease screening, and others.
