NEW YORK, Jan. 16, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Kidney diseases are one of the leading causes of death worldwide. The incidence of chronic kidney diseases is rapidly rising especially in the elderly population due to increase in life expectancy of general population and improvements in medical management services. However, diabetes and hypertension remain the leading cause of renal diseases. Biomarkers are measurable indicators reflecting physiological and pharmacological progression of disease state. Recent advances in molecular biology have resulted in the development of novel biomarkers for the renal function. Extensive R&D by biomarker manufacturers has led to identification of novel renal biomarkers to deliver better diagnostic accuracy and improve patient outcomes.

Market forecast

Revenue from the global renal biomarker market is projected to register a CAGR of 7.0% during the forecast period (2016 – 2026) and reach a market valuation of US$ 1,770.3 Mn by the end of 2026.

Rising prevalence of renal diseases primary driver boosting market growth

Growth of the global renal biomarker market is mainly driven by rising prevalence of various renal diseases coupled with an ageing population worldwide. Also, there has been an increase in the adult population with chronic kidney diseases, primarily attributed to a rising prevalence of conditions such as diabetes and high blood pressure. Other prominent growth factors include large number of clinical trials in the novel renal biomarker and drug development space and penetration of various cost-effective, reliable, and rapid technologically driven diagnostic protocols in clinical practice. However, use of unreliable imperfect gold standard for renal disease diagnosis and lack of sensitivity and specificity in current renal biomarkers are some of the factors restraining the growth of the market over the forecast period.

Current trends governing the global renal biomarker market include the possible use of renal biomarkers in personalised medicine and drug development and a growing popularity of non-invasive renal biomarkers.
