Increasing prevalence of helicobacter pylori in emerging economies is propelling the Helicobacter pylori diagnostics market growth

Prevalence of helicobacter pylori is declining in developed countries, whereas its prevalence in emerging economies is increasing. For instance, according to the Faculty of Medicine of The Chinese University of Hong Kong (CUHK), 2017, around 4.4 billion people worldwide are infected with Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori). Furthermore, same source suggested that prevalence in Africa is up to 80%, which is the highest globally, while in Asia, over 50% of the population was infected with H. pylori. Moreover, according to the International Agency for Research on Cancer report 2014, in 2012, around 952,000 new gastric cancer cases occurred globally and around 734,000 gastric cancers were estimated to occur due to H. pylori infection. Such high prevalence of Helicobacter pylori in Africa and Asia is expected to fuel the regional helicobacter market growth.

The limitations associated with diagnostic tests are expected to be a major factor restraining growth of the Helicobacter pylori diagnostics market. For instance, serology-based assays have low sensitivity and specificity, as they are unable to differentiate between active infection and IgG antibodies present in case of post treatment.
