摘要: In the past decade, substantial advances in pharmacogenomics have increasingly unveiled genetic basis of interindividual differences drug responses. Majority these been made field oncology which revolutionized cancer therapy. Pharmacogenomics plays a significant role pharmacotherapy as narrow therapeutic indices, variable response rates, rapid and severe systemic toxicity, unpredictable efficacy are all hallmarks therapies. Personalized oncologic care is becoming trend because constant advancement clinical molecular diagnostics biomarker discoveries. addition, intricate mechanisms that provoke neoplastic cell transformation along with dysregulation alternative complementary pathways understood. This review discusses current commonly used predictive prognostic biomarkers testing.
