WiseGuyReports have announced the addition of a new report titled “Circulating Tumor Cell (CTC) Diagnostics: Technologies and Global Markets”.
Summary
Cancer is a notorious disease that can affect any part of the body. In some cases, cancer can quickly generate abnormal cells that can travel to places far from its primary site and can eventually assault other parts of the body and as a consequence spread to other organs. This invasive process is known as metastases.
Cells released from the primary tumor or it metastases are known as circulating tumor cells (CTCs). These cells are usually tumor cells and are found circulating in the peripheral blood. CTCs were discovered by the Australian pathologist John Ashworth in 1869. There were a lot of technical challenges in studying these tumor cells. There have been tremendous technical developments in cell enrichment, isolation, molecular analysis and bioinformatics in this area. CTCs have been enriched using unique and specific cell-surface markers or other novel physical characteristics such as cell size or deformability. Patients’ CTCs can be grown in vitro or in immunocompromised mice, and then further studied.
Metastasis is the major cause of cancer deaths today, and CTCs may be the facilitate metastases. As CTCs circulate and spread in the body, the disease gets a hold of different parts of the body and can potentially become challenging from diagnostic and therapeutic perspectives. In this situation, CTCs can play a very important role as they allow for a specific detection of metastasis, and at an early stage when it is less invasive and treatment modalities can be effectively implemented. The development of noninvasive ways to detect and monitor tumors continues to be a challenge in cancer research. CTCs and CTC associated molecules can be useful.
In addition, the molecular characterization of CTCs enables implementation of efficient treatment strategies. One such thought is that removing CTCs from the blood will limit metastases after surgery or therapy. Molecular characterization can help in developing new and novel technologies for CTC detection, isolation, enumeration, and later genetic or proteomic analysis.
Recently, CTCs, as an area of cancer research, have rapidly been gaining popularity because it is a noninvasive diagnostic and prognostic tool for patient treatment and predicting cancer progression. Many technologies for the detection, characterization and analysis of CTCs have recently entered the market.
There is a critical need for non-invasive prognostic tools for detecting cancer. Circulating tumor cell technology recovers and detects tumor cells present in the peripheral blood. These technologies can help in improving patient care and also offer better treatment outcomes. CTC as a technology can revolutionize cancer diagnosis, prognosis and treatment because it offers highly sensitive, targeted, reproducible and non-invasive assays.
The global market for cancer prognostics and for monitoring based on CTCs was estimated to be at $REDACTED billion in previous years. Increase in cases of cancer globally, and the reimbursement support offered indeveloped countries like United States (U.S.) and Europe are the reasons for the growth o f the CTC market.
