Precision Cancer Medicine: Challenges and Opportunities

Editat de Sameek Roychowdhury, Eliezer M. Van Allen
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 3 ian 2020
Genomic sequencing technologies have augmented the classification of cancer beyond tissue of origin and towards a molecular taxonomy of cancer. This has created opportunities to guide treatment decisions for individual patients with cancer based on their cancer’s unique molecular characteristics, also known as precision cancer medicine. The purpose of this text will be to describe the contribution and need for multiple disciplines working together to deliver precision cancer medicine. This entails a multi-disciplinary approach across fields including molecular pathology, computational biology, clinical oncology, cancer biology, drug development, genetics, immunology, and bioethics. Thus, we have outlined a current text on each of these fields as they work together to overcome various challenges and create opportunities to deliver precision cancer medicine. As trainees and junior faculty enter their respective fields, this text will provide a framework for understanding the role andresponsibility for each specialist to contribute to this team science approach.

Textul de pe ultima copertă

This comprehensive book was written by leading researchers in the emerging and changing field of precision cancer medicine. Precision cancer medicine entails connecting the right molecular diagnosis to the right treatment plan for individual patients. The textbook covers a range of topics from basic science to clinical application for patient care. Precision cancer medicine includes multi-disciplinary fields of research expertise ranging from genomics, pathology, oncology, hereditary genetics, bioinformatics, immunology, cancer biology, and bioethics. Basic topics include molecular diagnostics, liquid biopsy, immunogenomics, drug resistance mechanisms, and bioinformatics analyses of big data. The clinical topics include clinical interpretation, hereditary cancers, designs of basket clinical trials, exceptional responders, and the ethical, legal, and social implications of clinical genomics research.
Readers who are involved in one of the specialities of precision cancer medicine can benefit from this book through exposure to other fields. Any level of training or professional practice can benefit from the broad exposure this book can provide.
