Personalized Biomedicine in Cancer: From Traditional Therapy To Sustainable Healthcare

Abstract

What images are coming to your mind when you think about sustainable and qualified life? The main picture drawn is healthcare. Many people suffer from cancer; more than 18.1 million people were diagnosed with cancer and 9.6 million people died from cancer worldwide in 2018. Therefore many diagnosis and treatment strategies that are shaped and regulated by biomedicine approaches have been developed to solve this problem. Biomedicine is an interdisciplinary science to understand the interaction of biological, chemical, and physiological principles. These principles should be brought together to be applicable and sustainable for qualified life. Drug discovery and combination therapy using nanocarriers and natural compounds are being innovated as new approaches and opportunities for cancer treatment. Theoretically and practically, there is no limit to the development of new biomedicinal tools for personalized medicine in cancer. Therefore personalized medicine plays an important role for reaching successful therapy with low cost. By discovering the diverse potential of biomedicine, we can provide better healthcare in the world. © 2020 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
