Efficacy Monitoring

With many diseases, there are opportunities to assess the genetics of a patient in a minimally invasive manner, such as:

• A blood draw
• Surface level tissue
• Fluid samplings

These samples can act as effective surrogates for monitoring drug activity and response in many diseases, including:

• Immunology
• Cardiovascular disease
• Oncology

Both efficacy and adverse events can be tracked. Tracking drug response over time will improve methods for selecting dose and assess the overall effectiveness of treatment quickly, which is a critical factor when it takes many months or longer to otherwise track the effectiveness of response.
