Genomic profiling offers several significant benefits:
1. Personalized Treatment: By identifying specific genetic mutations, healthcare providers can tailor treatments to target those mutations, increasing the effectiveness of the therapy. 2. Early Detection: It can help in detecting cancers at an early stage by identifying genetic predispositions. 3. Prognosis: Provides valuable information about the likely course and outcome of the disease. 4. Avoiding Ineffective Treatments: Helps in identifying treatments that are unlikely to be effective, thus sparing patients from unnecessary side effects.
