Precision Oncology: Multidisciplinary Approach and Artificial Intelligence for Personalized Therapies

In this episode of TJ Talks, the guest is Professor Paolo Marchetti, a well-known expert in precision oncology in Italy, Full Professor of Medical Oncology at the University of Rome "La Sapienza", Scientific Director of IDI-IRCCS, President of the Foundation for Personalized Medicine and promoter of the Trial of Rome clinical study. Precision oncology is a broad concept based on the study of the genome of tumour cells and Prof. Marchetti – interviewed by Prof. Giancarlo Pruneri -  highlights the clinical advantages of applying this path, without forgetting the factors that interfere with the possible response to a given drug: such factors include interactions, alterations of the microbiota, lifestyle and physical activity, making the scenario even more complex and fostering comparison among clinicians, molecular biologists, pathologists and geneticists on an ever-increasing number of heterogeneous data. In precision oncology, the role of artificial intelligence in managing data from clinical trials is essential to understand potential mechanisms of drug resistance and synthesize the most appropriate and personalized knowledge for patient care.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
