The Middle East liver cancer diagnostics market size was estimated at USD 268.10 million in 2024 and is projected to reach USD 466.42 million by 2033, growing at a CAGR of 6.35% from 2025 to 2033. The ME liver cancer diagnostics market is primarily driven by the high prevalence of HBV and HCV, with Egypt reporting some of the region's highest infection burdens. Rising cases of metabolic dysfunction-associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD) and diabetes are accelerating incidence rates, particularly in Gulf countries. Despite progress in viral hepatitis treatment, chronic infection remains a key driver of hepatocellular carcinoma. Increasing investments in advanced diagnostic technologies, including liquid biopsy, NGS, and AI-driven platforms, along with national cancer control programs and improved registries, are further fueling market growth by supporting early detection and better patient outcomes.
The Middle East liver cancer diagnostics market is expanding rapidly, driven by epidemiological trends, strategic alliances, and accelerated adoption of advanced technologies. Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), the most common form of liver cancer, continues to rise across the region, with different etiological patterns shaping country-level dynamics. Egypt has long borne the burden of hepatitis C-driven liver cancer, while Gulf states such as Saudi Arabia, the UAE, Kuwait, and Qatar are witnessing increasing cases linked to obesity, diabetes, and metabolic syndrome. This epidemiological transition underscores the pressing need for sensitive, non-invasive diagnostic tools, supported by public health initiatives and stronger cancer registries. Despite progress in viral hepatitis management, lifestyle-related drivers continue to fuel incidence, requiring diagnostics that can enable earlier detection and intervention.
The competitive landscape is being reshaped by global biotech firms and regional healthcare leaders. In October, 2024, Helio Genomics entered a strategic partnership with Halub Medical Co. to commercialize HelioLiver Dx in Saudi Arabia and the broader GCC. The test, expected to be launched commercially in Q1 2025, is projected to generate more than USD 10 million in revenue in its first year of availability. HelioLiver Dx leverages AI-driven multi-analyte technology-analyzing cfDNA, methylation signatures, serum proteins, and demographic markers and demonstrated four-times higher sensitivity than ultrasound in pivotal U.S. trials led by Stanford Medical Centers. Importantly, it offers adherence rates nearly nine-times greater than conventional surveillance, addressing a critical gap in patient compliance across the Middle East. The partnership aligns with Saudi Arabia's Health Cluster initiatives and Vision 2030 strategy, reflecting how international innovation is being localized to address regional healthcare burdens.
