Pathway Studio technology for selecting personalized anti-cancer treatment with Wake Forest University

While not every clinical trial is successful the number of treatment options for cancer is already large and only expected to grow in the future. Thus, the major challenge for modern oncologists is selecting the most effective anti-cancer treatment for a patient from the vast number of approved anti-cancer drugs on the market. The proposed solution for this problem is called personalized medicine - development of approaches for selecting the best treatment for a patient based on drug mechanism of action that most optimally matches the molecular mechanism driving tumor growth.
