The benefits of the Stratified Medicine Programme are multifaceted:
Enhanced Treatment Efficacy: By tailoring treatments to the individual characteristics of a patient's cancer, the chances of a successful outcome are significantly improved. Reduced Side Effects: Targeted treatments are less likely to affect healthy cells, thereby reducing the incidence of side effects. Accelerated Drug Development: Understanding specific genetic drivers of cancer can lead to the development of new, more effective drugs. Better Resource Allocation: Healthcare resources can be used more efficiently by focusing on treatments that are most likely to work for specific patient groups.
