The global pharmacogenomics market size was USD 5,680 Mn in 2022 and is likely to reach USD 11,800 Mn by 2031, expanding at a CAGR of 8.50% during 2023-2031. Increasing adoption of precision medicine and the rising prevalence of infectious diseases are likely to boost the market.
Pharmacogenomics (PGx) is known as pharmacogenetics and is the study of how an individual’s genetic makeup affects their response to drugs. It is a field that combines pharmacology (the study of drugs) and genomics (the study of genes and their functions) to develop personalized approaches to drug therapy.
The goal of pharmacogenomics is to identify genetic variations that can affect how an individual metabolizes drugs, how they respond to a particular drug, and how likely they are to experience side effects or toxic reactions. By identifying these variations, healthcare providers can choose drugs and doses that are most likely to be effective and safe for each patient.
PGx testing involves analyzing a patient’s DNA to identify genetic variations that affect drug response. This information can then be used to guide drug selection and dosing decisions. For example, if a patient has a genetic variation that affects how they metabolize a particular drug, their healthcare provider may choose a different drug or adjust the dose to ensure that the drug is safe and effective.
Pharmacogenomics is used in a variety of medical settings, including cancer treatment, psychiatry, and cardiology. It has the potential to improve drug safety and efficacy, reduce side effects, and optimize drug therapy for individual patients.
The market report finds that the COVID-19 pandemic hampered the global pharmacogenomics market. The clinical trials, drug development, and diagnostic procedures for diseases were suspended during the pandemic, due to the complete shutdown imposed by the government.
Increasing need for cancer treatment is expected to drive the market. Genetics has gained importance in the treatment of cancer in the past few years. In today’s healthcare system, different adverse drug reactions are a problem. However, one patient may experience side effects while another patient does not. These side effects are making the healthcare market difficult, due to societal diversity and unexpected reactions occur.
According to the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), 6.7% of hospitalized patients have a serious adverse drug reaction (ADR), with a fatality rate of 0.32%. This means, every year there are over 2,216,000 serious ADRs in hospitalized patients, which claims the lives of 106,000.
Increasing number of strategic collaborations between the public and private market players is boosting research & development activities. However, increasing prevalence of disorders and growing investment in healthcare infrastructure are likely to fuel the market.
The high cost of research & development projects is restraining the market. Medical and research institutes require high-tech laboratories for the drug development process. FDA-approved labeling for drug products includes monitoring instructions and information to advise the administration of various medications.
Increasing demand for precision medicine and growing aging population who is susceptibility to disease, which are expected to create lucrative opportunities in the market. According to the FDA, in vitro diagnostics (IVDs) that are marketed directly to consumers without the involvement of a healthcare provider are called direct-to-consumer tests. These tests generally request the consumer collect a specimen, such as saliva or uterine, and send it to the company for testing and analysis. These regulations regarding the security of customers’ genetic information create opportunities in the market.

Based on application, the pharmacogenomics market is divided into neurology, oncology, cardiology, drug discovery, and others. The oncology segment is expected to expand at a significant pace during the projection period, due to the rising use of precision cancer treatment. Pharmacogenomics (PGx) helps predict cancer susceptibility, patient survival, tumor progression & recurrence, and response & toxicity to chemotherapy.
The drug discovery segment is anticipated to account for a major market share in the coming years, as it helps in treating and curing diseases therapeutically. The process of drug discovery starts with the potential target at which the drug can act. Drug discovery increases the affinity, selectivity, efficacy/potency, metabolic stability, and oral bioavailability.
On the basis of technology, the market is segregated into microarray, DNA sequencing, polymerase chain reaction, and others. The polymerase chain reaction (PCR) segment is projected to register a considerable CAGR during the forecast period, owing to the irreplaceability of amplifying a small fragment of DNA. Multiplex PCR is a form of PCR in which different fragments of DNA are amplified in a single reaction and it is utilized to identify a variety of antibiotic genes.
The DNA sequencing segment is anticipated to hold a key share of the market in the coming years, due to the increasing focus on sequencing analysis for different genomic patterns. The sequencing method has an impact on the healthcare industry. There are three technologies used for DNA sequencing including Sanger sequencing, next-generation sequencing, and capillary electrophoresis and fragment analysis.
Based on end-user, the pharmacogenomics market is divided into diagnostic centers, hospitals, academic institutes, and research organizations. The hospital segment is anticipated to expand at a high CAGR during the forecast period, due to the presence of numerous licensed medical professionals and advanced technology under one roof and the high use of hospitals as a primary setting for disease detection and treatment. The growth of the segment is attributed to the rise in molecular diagnostics resources in hospitals during the pandemic.
In terms of region, the global pharmacogenomics market is classified as Asia Pacific, North America, Latin America, Europe, and Middle East & Africa. North America is expected to dominate the market during the projection period, due to the increase in the adoption of pharmacogenomics (PGx) practices and the presence of a well-established healthcare infrastructure in the region.
According to the American Cancer Society 2022 report, about 1.9 million new cancer cases were diagnosed and 609,360 cancer deaths in the US in that year. Increasing prevalence of several chronic diseases, high investment in personalized medicine & drug discovery, and the presence of a strong healthcare infrastructure are driving the market in the region.
