Abstract:
Precision medicine (PM) is an approach to disease treatment and prevention that seeks to maximize effectiveness by taking into account individual variability in genes, environment, and lifestyle. Cancer arises as a result of accumulation of genetic changes in a cell, and a number of therapeutics targeting protein products of ‘driver oncogenes’ have been developed. This has led to realization of ‘precision medicine’ in treating patients with cancers, first. This approach is being explored in prognostication and early detection of cancer, and finally, will be employed in the prevention of cancer. And, this approach is being applied to other diseases.
