A Clinician View and Experience of Proteomic Studies in the Light of Lung Cancer in Japanese Healthcare
Author
Summary, in English
In Japan, rising costs have impacted the framework of maintaining an efficient and effective healthcare system. Today, urgent implementation of programs to address this need have led to a rebuilding of the entire approach of medical evaluation and clinical care. Recent developments in clinical proteomics based on mass spectrometry (MS) for identifying, sequencing, and quantifying disease-relevant protein biomarkers is a promising means for optimal drug prescription using biomarker diagnosis. We illustrate in this report our experience with lung cancer cases with various drug therapies evaluated with proteomics studies.
