Abstract

Precision medicine in oncology aims to tailor treatment to the individual characteristics of each patient, including genetic, environmental, and lifestyle factors. This innovative approach is transforming cancer treatment by moving away from the one-size-fits-all paradigm toward personalized therapy. In recent years, advancements in genomics, bioinformatics, and molecular biology have enabled the identification of cancer-specific biomarkers, improving diagnosis, prognosis, and therapeutic outcomes. This article reviews the role of precision medicine in oncology, highlighting the significant advances in molecular profiling, targeted therapies, and immunotherapy. The integration of big data and artificial intelligence is also discussed, which aids in the creation of predictive models for patient-specific treatment plans. Despite challenges such as accessibility and cost, precision oncology holds promise for achieving better outcomes and minimizing side effects.
