Cancer Biomarker Discovery
Cancer biomarker discovery is the process of identifying biomarkers associated with the occurrence, progression or response to treatments of cancer. Biomarkers are measurable indicators of a physiological state, such as gene expression, proteins, metabolites and other molecular signatures, which can be used for early diagnosis, prognosis and monitor the efficacy of a given therapy. The identification of cancer biomarkers is a crucial step in the development of personalized and targeted therapies, which can improve the quality of life of cancer patients and reduce the costs associated with incorrect or inefficient treatments.
