Abstract:
Alzheimer's Disease (AD) represents a formidable challenge in neurology, characterized by progressive neurodegeneration and cognitive decline. Traditional therapeutic approaches have failed to deliver significant outcomes, underscoring the need for innovative paradigms such as precision medicine. The review explores integrating genomic, biomarker-driven, and individualized therapeutic strategies to tackle AD. It examines the role of key genetic factors, including APOE and MTHFR polymorphisms, in influencing disease susceptibility and treatment responses. Advances in biomarker technologies, such as blood-based and imaging biomarkers, are highlighted for their potential in early diagnosis and patient stratification. Additionally, the review underscores the importance of tailoring interventions across different stages of AD, incorporating lifestyle modifications and emerging tools like artificial intelligence & recent patented technologies. Precision medicine offers a transformative pathway, aiming to deliver personalized, effective care that addresses the complex and multifactorial nature of AD. The paradigm shift promises improved clinical outcomes and enhanced patient quality of life.
