Personalized Medicine - Genomics Maria Judit Molnar 2014
The Personal Genome Project is a long term, large cohort study Aims to sequence and publicize the complete genomes and medical records of 100,000 volunteers, in order to enable research into personal genomics and personalized medicine. It was initiated by Harvard University in 2005.
Personal Genome Project The individuals agree to make their genome and their health records public. „volunteers… willing to share their genome sequence and many types of personal information with the research community and the general public, Aim: to understand genetic and environmental contributions to human traits.”
The project publish the • genotype (the full DNA sequence), • phenotype: medical records, various measurements, MRI images, etc. • all data are within the public domain • made available over the Internet so that researchers can test various hypotheses about the relationships among genotype, environment and phenotype.

Personalized Medicine: The Answer? Definition The use of information and data from a patient’s genotype and phenotype (level of gene expression and/or clinical information) to: • stratify disease • select a medication • provide a therapy • initiate a preventative measure that is particularly suited to that patient at the time of administration

Drug discovery paradigm shift: a problem or an opportunity? • Ever increasing demand for safer medicine • Stark realization that drug discovery is expensive and slow • shrinking budgets, consolidation, outsourcing • Current drug inventory is large, diverse and possibly has a lot more to offer than was initially thought • Increasing availability of genomic data and tools to use/understand it

What will likely happen?? Personalized medicine will involve pharmacogenomic treatment approaches that transcend the „one-size-fits-all” approach Personalized medicine will focus on keeping people well and treating disease at its earliest stages! Laboratory medicine will lead the way! „Disease signatures” comprised of hundreds or thousands of data point will be the biomarkers of the future Drug companies will develope their markets around interventional treatments for „disease signatures”!!
The POTENTIAL for Personalized MedicineA „Wellness” Vision • A new comprehensive and integrated approach to wellness –prevention of chronic disease, early detection of disease risk and individualized treatment plans • Predictive toxicology for new drug candidates – ability to predict which individuals will benefit and those who might be most at risk for experiencing serious side-effects Healthy Pre-disease Diseased Recovering Earlier disease detection New interventional therapies New diagnostics Disease prediction Preventative therapies Personalized treatment Informed treatment decisions Routine ComprehensiveHealth Status Monitoring New diagnostics Accurate disease diagnosis Real-time Disease Reoccurrence Monitoring • Improvedeconomics of diseasescreening • Reducedoccupationalexposures • More timelytherapy • Reducedunnecessaryreferrals • More efficienttreatmentplans • Improvedoutcomes • Timelymedicalinterventions • Reducedhospitalizations • Peopleadoptinghealthierlifestyles • Timely testing of environmentalexposures
