Latent TB Detection Market: Government Initiatives to Promote Tuberculosis Detection

The growth of the market is attributed to the increasing prevalence of tuberculosis and government initiatives to promote tuberculosis detection. However, multidrug resistant tuberculosis (MDR-TB) is likely to hamper the growth of the Latent TB Detection market to a certain extent.

The latent TB detection market is expected to reach US$ 1,684.86 million in 2027 from US$ 1,131.82 million in 2019. The market is estimated to grow with a CAGR of 5.2% from 2020-2027.

Based on test, the latent TB detection market was segmented into Tuberculin Skin Test (TST) and Interferon Gamma Released Assay (IGRA). In 2019, the Interferon Gamma Released Assay (IGRA) segment accounted for the highest share in the market and is likely to retain its dominant share. Also, the similar segment is expected to witness fastest growth in the market owing to the accuracy obtained through these tests. The IGRA test has numerous advantages over the TST of not needing the patient to return for test result evaluation. Current IGRAs do not cross-react with most non-TB mycobacteria, including Bacille Calmette-Guerin (BCG) strains.

Tuberculosis (TB) can stay dormant for years before developing into an active TB disease. This condition is known as latent TB. Diagnosis of latent TB is imperative, as it will develop into infectious TB disease when the immune system becomes weak. The World Health Organization (WHO) stated that a total of 1.4 million people died from TB in 2019, making TB one of the top 10 causes of mortality in the world. The data also stated that in 2019 TB affected 10 million people in the world, of which 56% were adult males, 32% were adult females, and 12% were children. The disease is prevalent in all age groups worldwide. Furthermore, according to the Global Health Education (GHE), a UK-based registered charity, the high TB burden countries accounted for 86% of the estimated cases worldwide. India, Indonesia, China, the Philippines, Pakistan, Nigeria, Bangladesh, and South Africa are among the countries that are highly affected with TB. Therefore, the high prevalence of TB is driving the need for TB tests, in turn, propelling the growth of the latent TD detection market.

The disease disproportionally affects the poor, vulnerable, undernourished, and marginalized people worldwide. Evidence from various sources such as World Health Organization (WHO) and the United Nations (UN) shows that countries such as India and Indonesia in Asia Pacific are highly populated with patients suffering from TB. Thus, the government bodies in these countries are undertaking and adopting certain schemes and initiatives in containing the disease. For instance, the Indian National Strategic Plan (NSP) that aims for TB elimination has been established from 2017 to 2025;
