Abstract
Methods: Transformative Dx tools such as liquid biopsy in combination with next-generation sequencing (NGS) have emerged as a standard of care to inform clinical decision, treatment response and prognosis much sooner.
Results: As the cutting-edge Dx technology continues to advance, it will complement Rx innovation like antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs), chimeric antigen receptor T-cell (CAR-T) therapy and messenger RNA (mRNA) medicine, and help lifesaving treatments reach patients earlier than ever.
Conclusions: Highly personalized Dx and Rx breakthroughs can empower providers and researchers alike with precise and real-world data on each patients’ cancer, helping them to develop and deliver real-time precision oncology care.
