Digital Biomarkers Market Growth by Top Key Players | ActiGraph, LLC (US), AliveCor Inc. (US), Amgen Inc. (US), Biogen Inc. (US)
Digital biomarkers are indexes that use data from digital platforms such as smartphones and wearable devices to objectively visualize the presence or absence of a disease, as well as changes caused by treatment. Advanced analytics and artificial intelligence (AI) algorithms are used by digital biomarkers to analyze data in ways that are not possible for humans to do alone.
The Global Digital Biomarkers Market is set to witness a significant CAGR of 35% from 2021 to 2026. Some of the important drivers propelling the global digital biomarkers market are high investments in R&D, increasing usage of digital tools such as smartphones and wearables, development of novel products by market players, high cost involved in drug development, and rising demand for mobile health apps.
High investments and funding to grow novel technologies to fuel its high demand
Future treatments and diagnostic protocols for certain indications, including cancer, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), and Alzheimer’s disease, are expected to rely heavily on digital biomarkers. High growth of the digital biomarkers market has led to a number of investments and funding activities to accelerate research on digital biomarkers.
Some of these are listed below:
- In May 2022, Imagene AI, an Israel based digital biomarker company, secured US$ 21.5 million funding that includes US$ 3 million in seed funding led by Blumberg Capital and Series A round of US$ 18.5 million led by technology-driven cancer medicine investors, to focus on precision medicine in cancer care
- In February 2022, Koneksa, a company engaged in designing and validating digital biomarkers raised US$ 45 million Series C Financing led by AyurMaya, joined by Takeda Ventures and Velosity Capital, and existing investors such as McKesson Ventures, Merck Global Health Innovation Fund, Novartis, and others, to accelerate the expansion of digital biomarker platform
- In August 2021, the Alzheimer’s Drug Discovery Foundation (ADDF), US, awarded a funding up to US$ 2 million to the Early Detection of Neurodegenerative diseases (EDoN) initiative for a joint research programme led by Alzheimer’s Research UK, with the goal of developing a digital biomarker to identify Alzheimer’s disease at its earliest stage
