Abstract: Cancer precision therapeutics is defined as a therapy strategy based on molecular profiles and classifiers generated from highthroughput molecular assays. Precision therapeutics in oncology is becoming reality thanks to the nextgeneration sequencing and cancer targeted agents. Selecting optimal targets, identifying appropriate combinations of therapies and realtime monitoring of tumor evolution may be critical for practicing precision therapeutics.
