Personalized medicine is practiced when doctors consider specific information of an individual patient when planning a course of treatment. In oncology, personalized medicine can include an understanding of the genetic profile of the cancer as well as clinical and demographic factors of the patient. Personalized cancer medicine can the potential to help individual patients and also develop novel, effective cancer therapeutics.
