Review and importance of precision medicine in cancer treatment and individual health

Precision medicine is a model of medicine that personalizes healthcare by providing medical decisions, practices, or pharmaceutical products that are specific to each patient. In this model, diagnostic tests are often used to find the optimal treatment based on an individual’s genetic makeup. Tools used in precision medicine include molecular diagnostics and imaging. In this new study, researchers at Rutgers University applied personalized precision medicine to cancer treatment. Their analysis included the entire process of capturing PPM data, creating PPM products, and the social and economic consequences of using PPM. In the study, which was the result of work by several researchers at the university, the researchers report that PPM has the potential to revolutionize cancer treatment. Conventional approaches involve diagnosing a tumor and then using general treatment approaches such as surgery, chemotherapy, and radiation therapy. In contrast, in PPM, researchers use targeted treatment approaches that are more effective and have fewer unwanted side effects. These treatments are identified by analyzing specific tissues, gene mutations, and personal factors related to each unique case of cancer. Examples of these emerging treatments include immunotherapy, cancer vaccines, and ... In addition, these researchers have raised social issues related to precision and personalized medicine in health care and wellness. According to the researchers, before precision and personalized medicine becomes a part of standard cancer care, some challenges must be solved. These challenges include legal challenges, economic concerns, and the feasibility of using precision and personalized medicine, which is accompanied by economic, social, and individual problems. Today, precision and personalized medicine is becoming an effective and satisfactory approach, and before this therapeutic approach can be introduced into the fight against cancer, the aforementioned challenges must be overcome.
