Executive Summary
The global direct-to-consumer market was valued at approximately $824.1 million in 2018 and is anticipated to reach $6,364.5 million by 2028. The rise in the public awareness along with the reduced cost and time required for sequencing owing to the technological advancements is responsible for bolstering the industry demand and aiding in reduction of the global healthcare expenditure. Furthermore, the recent developments in the regulatory pathway for the utilization of direct-to-consumer genetic tests for medical and research purposes have increased the acceptance of direct-to-consumer genetic testing.

Owing to the need for precision medicine, the genetic testing industry has been witnessing a surge in demand for genetic testing.The increased prevalence of genetic diseases such as cancer, Parkinson's disease and rare diseases has led to the growth of global direct-to-consumer genetic testing market.

The direct-to-consumer genetic testing does not follow traditional genetic regulations, wherein the consumer could directly order sample collection test kit online via company's website and get an access to their genomic information by providing the sample of saliva or a cotton swab.Currently, the market is developing on regulations specific for direct-to-consumer genetic tests.

The direct-to-consumer genetic testing enables the consumer to get tailor-made recommendation as per their genetic profile, further helping to reduce the potential risk of the conventional treatment.Adoption of the direct-to-consumer genetic testing has also lead to the framing of regulatory pathway for these tests along with the government initiations to raise the awareness among the consumers regarding these tests.

These factors are expected to boost the growth of the industry in the forecast time. The emergence of direct-to-consumer genetic testing has enabled consumers to identify genetic diseases through genetic health risk tests and carrier predisposition tests. The direct-to-consumer genetic testing market also offers pharmacogenomics, nutrigenomics, ancestry and microbiome testing. The advent of the advanced genetic testing has improved the diagnosis and treatment, as well as enabled the genetic testing companies to meet the regulatory compliance, as well as to manage their profit margins.

The purpose of the study is to gain a holistic view of the global direct-to-consumer genetic testing market in terms of various factors influencing it, such as recent trends and technological advancements in the market.The scope of this report is centered upon conducting a detailed study of the products allied with the direct-to-consumer genetic testing market, which include health and wellness-, entertainment- and ancestry-based genetic tests.
