When Cancer Gets Personal: How Biomarkers Enrich the World of Precision Medicine


In this era of personalized medicine, biomarkers can provide important insights at every stage of drug discovery and development. By advancing our understanding of cancer pathophysiology and tumor profiling, they play a critical role in the rational development of novel therapies.

Despite their many potential advantages, biomarker development and biomarker-guided trials can be complex and costly. With thorough planning and clarity around the overall objective, however, these trials promise to deliver better outcomes for patients in need of life-changing therapies.

Webinar topics will include:

  • The evolution of biomarker-guided oncology trials
  • Driving smarter study design: Enhancing efficacy through biomarker-matched trials
  • Data considerations and limitations: The impact of next-generation sequencing, access to data, and challenges with global trial execution
  • What’s next for precision oncology and where biomarkers are heading
