Predictive markers in early research and companion diagnostic developments in oncology
چکیده انگلیسی

Predictive biomarkers are discovered and used in oncology research to formulate hypotheses aimed at the identification of patients benefiting from specific therapeutic intervention(s). They pave the way to the development of companion diagnostic tests which are tools readily implemented in the clinic and serve to qualify a patient for treatment with a particular targeted drug or the continued use of a particular drug, thus maximizing the benefit to risk ratio of the medical intervention to the patient. Predictive biomarkers are defined by biological characteristics of the patient's or tumor status that can be measured objectively and correlated with clinical outcome: these can be molecular, cellular or biochemical features. Predictive markers need extensive analytical validation – specific for the tool utilized for their assessment – as well as rigorous clinical qualification in the context of the drug treatment for which they define clinical utility. The process of companion diagnostic development is a highly interdisciplinary and complex one, driven by key crucial milestones and accompanying the same and typical process of a whole drug discovery and development continuum, from marker discovery and validation, assay development, clinical qualification until test approval and commercialization.
