The Asia Pacific point of care TB and drug-resistant TB testing market size is anticipated to reach USD 4.0 billion by 2030 and is projected to grow at a CAGR of 6.6% from 2024 to 2030, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. The high prevalence of tuberculosis (TB) in the region is primarily driving market’s growth. Countries like India, China, Indonesia, and the Philippines contribute significantly to the global TB burden. For instance, India alone accounted for about 27.0% of the world's TB cases in 2022, according to the World Health Organization (WHO). This high incidence necessitates efficient diagnostic solutions to manage and control TB, including drug-resistant forms.
Recent technological advancements are also fueling market growth. Innovations such as rapid molecular diagnostic tests, including the GeneXpert MTB/RIF assay, significantly improve diagnostic speed and accuracy. These technologies enable fast detection of TB and drug resistance, providing results in hours rather than days or weeks. Such advancements are crucial in high-burden areas where timely diagnosis is essential to prevent the spread of disease and improve patient outcomes. Integrating digital health solutions and automated testing systems further enhances diagnostic capabilities, supporting market expansion.
Government initiatives and regulatory support play a substantial role in driving market growth. Governments across the Asia Pacific are investing in TB control programs and diagnostic infrastructure to combat the high TB burden. For example, India's National Strategic Plan for Tuberculosis Elimination 2017-2025 emphasizes enhancing diagnostic services. Similarly, international organizations such as the Global Fund provide financial and technical assistance to improve diagnostic and treatment capabilities. These efforts and streamlined regulatory processes that facilitate the approval & adoption of new diagnostic technologies are crucial in supporting the market's growth and ensuring effective TB management in the region.
