About Business Insights

Personalized medicine is the tailoring of medical treatment to specific groups of patients, rather than to the population as a whole. Over the past decade, several significant advances in targeted therapies have improved the ability to treat certain cancers, the most notable early successes been trastuzumab in breast cancer and imatinib in chronic myelogenous leukaemia. Recently, several important breakthroughs have occurred, including the identification of a mechanism of resistance to EGFR monoclonal antibodies in colorectal cancer, which may be followed by further predictive tests leading to a reduction in the use of ineffective therapies. The number of drugs with pharmacogenomic recommendations in product labels is steadily increasing, widening the application of personalized medicine to individualize treatments beyond cancer. Although investment in personalized medicine is beginning to show valuable results, its integration into routine clinical practice has been slow and it currently does not impact the care of the vast majority of patients. To widen the benefits of personalized medicine over the next ten years, several obstacles need to be overcome, including increased regulatory burden, lack of reimbursement, demonstration of clinical utility and integration into drug development.
