The notion of matching diet with an individual's genetic makeup is transforming the way the public views nutrition as a means of managing health and preventing disease. To fulfill the promise of nutritional genomics, researchers are beginning to reconcile the diverse properties of dietary factors with our current knowledge of genome structure and g
Genomic Biomarkers for Pharmaceutical Development: Advancing Personalized Health Care provides an in-depth review of the state of translational science across all stages of pharmaceutical development with a special focus on personalized health care. This book provides a complete picture of biomarker development and validation in a pharmaceutical setting while addressing the inherent challenges of targeting the appropriate indications, biomarker robustness, regulatory hurdles, commercialization and much more.

The AACR Annual Meeting is the focal point of the cancer research community, where scientists, clinicians, other health care professionals, survivors, patients, and advocates gather to share the latest advances in cancer science and medicine. From population science and prevention; to cancer biology, translational, and clinical studies; to survivorship and advocacy; the AACR Annual Meeting highlights the work of the best minds in cancer research from institutions all over the world.
The goal of personalized healthcare in the treatment of cancer is to reduce the attrition of novel oncology drugs and improve patient outcomes. The discovery and application of novel biomarkers is essential for the successful implementation of personalized healthcare for cancer patients. This chapter focuses on the types of biomarkers that can be utilized clinically to guide treatment decisions in multiple cancer indications, including pharmacodynamic, predictive, prognostic, resistance, and surrogate biomarkers. Furthermore, multiple distinct examples highlight how the successful implementation of these biomarkers into clinical practice has benefited particular subsets of patients. Although these successful examples represent important first steps in using simple biomarkers to predict patient response, significant challenges still exist in prospectively identifying or co-developing biomarkers as companion diagnostics. The roles next generation sequencing and innovative biomarker-driven clinical trial design may play in overcoming these challenges are discussed.
