Precision Medicine & Cancer Therapy

Precision medicine also known as Personalised Medicine is a phrase that is often used to describe how genetic information about a person’s disease is being used to diagnose or treat their disease. The deeper understanding of how cancer forms and grows has ushered in a new era of precision cancer care, where tailored treatments target abnormalities that may be found in each tumor’s DNA profile. This exciting innovation marks a shift, from traditional treatments designed for the average patient based on their success with a representative sample of people with similar cancers, toward more precise therapies.
