Omics Biomarkers in Precision Oncology: From the Lens of the ASCPT Biomarkers and Translational Tools and Oncology Communities

Omics biomarkers comprise several molecular entities, including genomic, epigenomic, transcriptomic, proteomic, and metabolomic signatures. They play an essential role in oncology drug development and clinical settings by enabling personalized medicine. In precision oncology, validating biomarkers is a greater challenge than discovering them. The biomarkers discussed here span a wide evidentiary spectrum, from those endorsed in clinical guidelines to those that remain investigational.
