    Individual genomes and personalized

    medicine:life diversity and complexityPatients and tumors are unique. The conceptualdesign is great. Identifying the genetic variantsunderlying phenotype can lead to personalizedmedicine. Tailoring the best medical interventionto the right individual or patient can dramaticallyimprove health. A decade after the rstdraft of human genome sequence !"#$% and thepromises of a health revolution# &hat progresshas been made in both genomics and personalized

    medical practice and &hat are the challengesand perspectives to deal &ith for the next decade'The use of personalized medicine to improveboth the prevention and cure of disease is potentiallyachievable through: predicting both thedisease ris( among healthly individuals in thegeneral population and the therapeutic responseamong patients. )enomic information fromindividuals or patients can substantially contributeto biomar(er*based guided personalizedprevention and treatment.

    The rst strategy to use personalized medicine#in the prevention setting# involves identifyinghigh*ris( individuals that may developma+or common diseases# such as cardiovasculardisorder# diabetes and cancer# and then selectingthe most appropriate preventive intervention toprotect them from these diseases. This strategycan substantially reduce disease incidence and itis particularly important for hard*to*treat disorders#such as cancer. ,o&ever# despite currentresearch e-orts# the development of robust biomar(ersbased on primary prevention has only

    modestly improved.In the second strategy# in the treatment setting#e-orts by academia and industry havebeen focused on ho& to improve diagnosticsand prognosis of diseases and ho through thedevelopment of predictors of drug response and

    adverse e-ects# to improve the safety and ecacyof drugs. Indeed# not only is the therapeuticresponse rate for several complex diseases lobut general toxicity rates of currently used agentsare also still alarmingly high./everal research strategies and scienticelds have been developed to&ards personalizedmedicine. Pharmacogenetics# studying thegenetic associations &ith drug ecacy and toxicityhas led to the identication of several dugmetabolizingenzymes# &ith the most importantbelonging to the cytochrome P012 family !3%.

    The aim is to predict adverse e-ects to guideindividualized treatment. 4espite overlap &ithpharmacogenetics# the term pharmacogenomicsis distinct because it evaluates the application ofgenomics to drug discovery. Pharmacogenomicsinvolves the mechanism of the action of drugson cells as revealed by gene*expression patterns.Pharmacoproteomics provides a more functionalrepresentation of patient*to*patient variationthan that &hich is provided by genotyping#and therfore also contributes to personalizedmedicine. A 5pharmacometabonomic6 approachinvolves the study of metabolites and ho& thesecan contribute to personalizing drug treatment.
