Summary

Report Overview
The Global Breast Cancer Liquid Biopsy Market reached US$ 1.6 billion in 2023 and is expected to reach US$ 7.98 billion by 2031, growing at a CAGR of 23.2% during the forecast period 2024-2031.
A liquid biopsy is a laboratory test done on a sample of blood, urine, or other body fluid to look for cancer cells from a tumor or small pieces of DNA, RNA, or other molecules released by tumor cells into a person’s body fluids. Liquid biopsy allows multiple samples to be taken over time, which may help doctors understand what kind of genetic or molecular changes are taking place in a tumor. A liquid biopsy may be used to help find cancer at an early stage. It may also be used to help plan treatment or to find out how well treatment is working or if cancer has come back.
It is composed of different biological matrices such as circulating tumor cells (CTCs), cell-free nucleic acids, exosomes or tumors "educated platelets."  Recent technological and molecular advances, greatly facilitated by the use of microfluidics in many cases, have permitted large progress in both the ability to purify and analyze liquid biopsy components.
Market Dynamics: Drivers
Increasing prevalence of breast cancer
The demand for the breast cancer liquid biopsy market is driven by multiple factors. The rising prevalence of breast cancer propels the market growth. 
Furthermore, the demand for treatment will be fueled by the increase in awareness among people and technological advancements. For instance, according to uicc.org, Breast cancer is the most diagnosed cancer among women worldwide and is the most diagnosed cancer in women in 157 countries, accounting for 1 in 4 cancer cases. It is the second most frequent cancer amongst both sexes and is the leading cause of death from cancer in women. With the estimated 2.3 million new cases of breast cancer in 2022, roughly one in every 9 cancers for both sexes diagnosed globally was breast cancer. In 2022, there were an estimated 669,418 deaths from breast cancer, with a disproportionate number of these deaths occurring in low-resource settings.
Moreover, according to breastcancer.org, About 66% of breast cancer cases are diagnosed at a localized stage before cancer has spread outside of the breast when it is easiest to treat. There are currently more than four million women with a history of breast cancer in the US. 
Moreover, according to an article posted by WHO in February 2023, there are more than 2.3 million cases of breast cancer that occur each year, which makes it the most common cancer among adults. In 95% of countries, breast cancer is the first or second leading cause of female cancer deaths. Yet, survival from breast cancer is widely inequitable between and within countries nearly 80% of deaths from breast and cervical cancer occur in low- and middle-income countries.
Restraints
Factors such as high costs associated with liquid biopsy, the shortage of skilled professionals, and stringent regulatory requirements for the approval of new treatments are expected to hamper the market.
Market Segment Analysis
The global breast cancer liquid biopsy market is segmented based on product type, circulating biomarkers, application, end-user, and region.
The segment circulating tumor cells (CTCs) accounted for approximately 47.9% of the global breast cancer liquid biopsy market share
The circulating tumor cells segment is expected to hold the largest market share over the forecast period. In this segment, the technological advancements, and rising funds for private manufacturers for research work would drive this market. 
Circulating tumor cells (CTCs) as a liquid biopsy have great potential in clinical applications and basic cancer research. Liquid biopsy, a minimally invasive technique, allows for the detection of cancer biomarkers directly from bodily fluids. Among these biomarkers, CTCs, cell-free DNA (cfDNA), and RNA provide a dynamic glimpse into the tumor’s genetic landscape. This revolutionary approach offers promising avenues for early cancer detection, monitoring disease progression, and tailoring personalized treatment strategies.
CTCs are now recognized as crucial players in the metastatic process. Their detection and analysis have paved the way for the development of liquid biopsy techniques, offering a minimally invasive alternative to traditional tissue biopsies. This innovative approach has revolutionized our understanding of tumor dynamics, enabling real-time monitoring and providing insights into tumor heterogeneity, treatment response, and disease progression.
Market Geographical Analysis
North America accounted for approximately 42.8% of the global breast cancer liquid biopsy market share 
North America region is expected to hold the largest market share over the forecast period. The rising incidence of breast cancer, and growing awareness among people, in this region, help to propel the market.
For instance, according to breastcancer.org, approximately 13% (about one in eight) of U.S. women will develop invasive breast cancer in the course of their life. In recent years, incidence rates have increased slightly by 0.5% per year. Breast cancer is still one of the leading causes of cancer-related death in U.S. women, second only to lung cancer. Breast cancer is the most commonly diagnosed cancer among U.S. women after skin cancers. Each year, about 30% of all newly diagnosed cancers in women are breast cancer. There are currently more than four million women with a history of breast cancer in the US.
Moreover in June 2023, Labcorp launched liquid biopsy to detect cancer-related biomarkers. The Plasma Focus liquid biopsy requires only a standard blood draw to run. It looks through the sample for bits of cell-free DNA (cfDNA) that are released by tumor cells into the bloodstream and that may offer insights into the cancer treatments that’ll work most effectively for a specific patient.
