Lupus Anticoagulant Testing Market Size (2024 - 2029)

Lupus Anticoagulant Testing Market Analysis

The Lupus Anticoagulant Testing Market size is estimated at USD 400.10 million in 2024, and is expected to reach USD 528.30 million by 2029, growing at a CAGR of 5.72% during the forecast period (2024-2029).

The major factors driving the market are the increasing prevalence of autoimmune diseases such as systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and the growing awareness about diagnosing and managing blood coagulation disorders.

The growing prevalence of systemic lupus erythematosus increases the demand for lupus anticoagulant testing to diagnose the disease and receive proper treatment on time. For instance, according to an article published in Rheumatology International in August 2022, systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is expected to be more prevalent among most ethnic groups in middle-income countries. SLE's overall incidence and prevalence across Asia-Pacific countries ranged from 4.3 to 45.3 per 100,000 population.

According to the article, the population also indicates a gradual increase in SLE prevalence in North America, Europe, and Asia. Hence, the significant prevalence of SLE is expected to increase the demand for lupus anticoagulant testing, ultimately driving the market during the forecast period.

Also, the rising awareness about the early diagnosis and management of blood coagulation disorders is expected to drive the demand for lupus anticoagulant testing, driving the market during the forecast period. For instance, in May 2024, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and the National Blood Clot Alliance relaunched the ‘Stop the Clot' program. This program is an e-learning course that has been updated to provide current information on and best practices for identifying, treating, and managing patients who have blood clots caused by diseases like SLE.

Hence, the rising prevalence of systemic lupus erythematosus disease and rising awareness about blood clotting disorders are expected to increase the demand for lupus anticoagulant testing for early diagnosis of blood clot diseases. However, variability in diagnostic test results is expected to restrain the market during the forecast period.

Lupus Anticoagulant Testing Industry Segmentation

As per the scope of the report, lupus anticoagulant testing is a series of tests used to detect lupus anticoagulant (LA) in the blood. LA is an autoantibody associated with excess blood clot formation. LA testing may help determine the cause of blood clotting disorders. The lupus anticoagulant testing market is segmented into test type, end user, and geography. By test type, the market is segmented into prothrombin time (PT) test, activated partial thrombopl time test, dilute Russell’s viper venom time test, and coagulation factor VIII assay. By end user, the market is segmented into hospitals, clinics, and diagnostic laboratories. By geography, the market is segmented into North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, Middle East and Africa, and South America). The report offers the value (in USD) for the above segments.
