Future of Healthcare - Introduction of Clay Christensen

Date Released: Apr 2, 2008
This presentation briefly introduces the concepts of Clay Christensen who discusses the following: In the absence of the ability to precisely define a disease, the care of patients is best undertaken by highly skilled professionals, whose intuition is based on deep experience. This describes the history of health care, and we call this the practice of intuitive medicine. Molecular cell biology holds the promise of transforming medical practice into a new phase that we call precision medicine. It promises to dramatically reduce cost and increase the predictable effectiveness of therapy.

Personalized Medicine Strategic Review

Date Released: Dec 19, 2007
Personalized medicine tests have had a large impact on the oncology care cycle and greatly influenced therapeutic decisions. Today, as many pharmaceutical companies are plagued by fewer drug approvals and upcoming patent expirations, seeking opportunities within personalized medicine will be one way to bolster sales of therapeutics. We believe oncology therapeutics will continue to be one of the main adopters of personalized medicine and we recommend pharmaceutical companies act accordingly to strategically position themselves within the personalized medicine landscape as well as evaluate any potential influence personalized medicine might have on sales of therapeutics. The goal of this presentation is to review the various types of Molecular Diagnostic based personalized medicine tests and assess their influence on oncology patient care and oncology therapeutics.
