Combination Therapies and Personalized Medicine

6.4K
Combining two or more treatment methods increases the life span of cancer patients while reducing damage to vital organs or tissue from the overuse of a single treatment. Combination therapy also targets different cancer-inducing pathways, thus reducing the chances of developing resistance to treatment.
The combination of the drug acetazolamide and sulforaphane is a good example of combination therapy to treat cancer. The cells in the interior of a large tumor often die due to the hypoxic and...

Pharmacogenomics: Identification of New Drug Targets

86
Advances in genomics have profoundly influenced drug discovery by increasing both the speed and accuracy of pharmaceutical development. Pharmacogenomics, which examines how genetic variation influences drug response, facilitates the identification of novel therapeutic targets and enables patient stratification for personalized treatment. These strategies contribute to improved drug efficacy, minimized adverse effects, and more efficient clinical trial design.Mapping genetic differences...

Pharmacogenetics and Pharmacogenomics: Overview

158
Pharmacogenetics and pharmacogenomics examine how genetic factors influence an individual's response to drugs. While pharmacogenetics focuses on the impact of specific genetic variants on drug effects, pharmacogenomics takes a broader approach, studying how genetic variation across populations contributes to differences in drug responses. These fields aim to explain why individuals may experience varying levels of efficacy or adverse reactions to the same medication.Variability in drug...

Pharmacogenetic Phenotypes: Alterations in Pharmacokinetics, Drug Targets and Biologic Milieu

116
Genetic variations significantly influence drug response through pharmacokinetics, receptor interactions, and biologic milieu modifications. Pharmacokinetic alterations impact drug metabolism and clearance, affecting efficacy and toxicity. Variants in drug-metabolizing enzymes, such as CYP2C9 and CYP2C19, alter drug activation and elimination. For example, CYP2C9 loss-of-function variants require lower warfarin doses to prevent excessive bleeding, while CYP2C19 variants reduce clopidogrel...

Dosage Regimen: Individualization01:24

Dosage Regimen: Individualization

294
Individualization in dosing regimens is the customization of medication doses for individual patients. Its necessity arises from the goal of maximizing therapeutic benefits while minimizing risks. This approach is pivotal because human responses to drugs can vary widely; what is effective for one person may be inadequate or excessive for another. Interpatient (intersubject) variability refers to differences in drug responses between individuals, while intrapatient (intrasubject) variability...

Area of Science:

  • Biomedical Science
  • Computational Biology
  • Medical Informatics

Background:

  • Personalized medicine initially focused on molecular precision.
  • The temporal dimension of treatment timing has been underexplored.
  • Next-generation precision medicine is increasingly incorporating temporal aspects.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To examine how temporal precision is becoming a key feature of advanced personalized medicine.
  • To identify how temporal precision reshapes therapeutic practices in immunotherapy and chronic inflammatory diseases (CID).

Main Methods:

  • Qualitative interviews with experts in personalized immunotherapy and CID medicine.
  • Analysis of how algorithmic tools and multiomics data integration enable temporal precision.
  • Examination of five key aspects: extended prediction, timing, synchronization, treatment coordination, and feedback effects.

Main Results:

  • Temporal precision is reshaping therapeutic practice through enhanced prediction, timing, synchronization, coordination, and feedback.
  • Personalized cancer vaccines and precision inflammation therapies utilize algorithmic systems.
  • These systems anticipate therapy effects, coordinate interventions, and dynamically adapt treatment schedules.

Conclusions:

  • Precision medicine is shifting from solely molecular focus to incorporating the evolving temporality of disease and therapy.
  • Diseases are increasingly viewed as dynamic processes, therapies as timed interventions, and patients within feedback loops.
  • This represents a new development in precision medicine, emphasizing dynamic patient and treatment temporalities.
