“Programs which engage all stakeholders academia, industry,
clinicians and patients – to deliver real-world evidence and economic value models to policy makers, regulatory agencies and payers, are what is needed to catalyze the adoption of precision medicine


According to the U.S. Food & Drug Administration, pharmacogenomics is an
important part of precision medicine. FDA has an interest in determining how a person’s genetic makeup may affect their response to a drug, and how this can assist healthcare providers in “choosing a drug that is more likely to work, avoiding drugs that might have side effects, adjusting the dose of a drug, or determining if closer monitoring is needed.” says Peter Silvester
