The practice of medicine has always been about treating each patient individually, and clinicians have long observed that patients may respond differently to medication.
The task of getting the right treatment for a patient has been quite challenging – see below: “The estimated percentage of non-responders”.
However, developments in science and technology have made it possible to select the right treatment using a gene based decision support tool to predict which specific medical treatment a patient should have.
The science of pharmacogenomics is the study of the effect of our genetic variation on our response to a drug. The technology combines the science of drugs and genomics (the study og genes and functions) and is capturing how to personalize and improve medical treatment.
Personal Medicine™ Profile is such a decision support tool helping customers and doctors selecting and adjusting medical treatment.
