Rare diseases, also known as orphan diseases, have become a major health burden in the recent times.Comprising 6000-7000 life threatening diseases, rare diseases affect small percentage of the population.

Every country has their own definition of rare disease based on the country's population.In the initial years, pharmaceutical companies were less interested in adopting them to develop treatments for such a small patient population, therefore the US FDA started giving orphan drug designations to the drug candidates intended to treat rare diseases.

Orphan drug designations benefit companies from incentives for the development of these products until the marketing approval. The major challenge in rare diseases treatment is the lack of diagnosis, government policies, awareness and funding for R&D, along with long diagnostic delays.

The increasing patient pool for rare disease cancer, government funding to accelerate research in rare diseases, and interest of big pharmaceutical companies in manufacturing orphan drugs and orphan disease diagnostic devices are expected to be the major factors for the growth of the market.Pharmaceutical giants such as Shire and Qiagen are investing in the R&D for the development of innovative and improved diagnostic devices and assays for rare disease.

Rise in the awareness level among people on rare diseases is also expected to fuel the growth of the market.The rare disease has different definitions across different countries.

Rare diseases are genetically inherited and is difficult and expensive to diagnose and with are few treatment options. A disease is known as rare in the United States if it affects fewer to 200,000 people, and in Europe, a disease is referred to as rare if it affects one in 2000 people. Rare diseases are also referred to those diseases that are underappreciated or ignored by the medical community and drug companies

The disease type segment is further sub-segmented into gastroenterology, endocrine and metabolism disorders, cardiovascular disorders, neurology, hematology and oncology, dermatology, and other therapeutic areas. The test type segment is further segmented as genetic tests, general lab tests, imaging, and other physical tests for rare diseases. On the basis of trait type, the rare disease diagnostic market is segmented as inherited and acquired. Based on the age group, the rare disease diagnostic market is segmented into children and adults. On the basis of end user, the rare disease diagnostic marker is segmented as hospital laboratories, diagnostic laboratory, genetic testing laboratories, cancer research laboratories, and others genetic services area.

Executive Summary
Rare diseases have become a major health burden in the recent times.Also known as orphan diseases, rare diseases are a group of 6000-7000 life threatening diseases affecting a small percentage of the population.

Countries also have their own definition of rare disease based on the population.Rare diseases are also known as orphan diseases because pharmaceutical companies were less interested in adopting them to develop treatments for small patient population.

The US FDA then decided to design drugs as orphan drugs and give incentives to encourage companies to develop diagnostics and treatment options for rare diseases. The major challenge in the case of rare diseases is the lack of diagnosis and treatment options, government policies, and funding for research and development.

The global rare disease diagnostics market was valued $45.18 billion in 2017 and is anticipated to reach $86.15 billion by 2025. Factors such as high incidence of rare diseases, presence of large numbers of research and development facilities for rare diseases, significant number of rare disease registries, high diagnosis rare of rare diseases in countries of North America, and extensive investments in different therapeutic areas are driving the growth of the North America rare disease diagnostics market.
