What Role Do Biomarkers Play in Determining Efficacy?
Biomarkers are biological molecules found in blood, other body fluids, or tissues that can be a sign of a normal or abnormal process, or of a condition or disease. In cancer treatment, biomarkers can help in predicting which patients are more likely to benefit from a particular therapy, thus optimizing the efficacy of the treatment. For example, the presence of certain genetic mutations can indicate a higher likelihood of response to targeted therapies.
