Popis: | Personalized medicine is an emerging and promising alternative to standard therapy regimens with the potential to significantly influence therapeutic interventions for many diseases. An extensive literature review of studies that focused on pharmacogenomics of monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) and immunoglobulin-containing fusion proteins (igFPs) was conducted. A comprehensive survey of the US FDA-approved labels revealed that pharmacogenomics information has also been incorporated into the label of some mAbs to guide therapy. In addition, treatment-emergent adverse events for mAbs and igFPs were analyzed that showed an association with the drugs’ individual mechanism of action as well as molecular nature. The identification of the signaling pathways linked to the specific target of each mAb or igFP may help accelerate clinical successes in predicting and managing treatment-associated severe adverse events in individual patients. Incorporating pharmacogenomics into drug development of mAbs and igFPs will improve treatment efficacy, and may allow prediction of adverse events. Thus, a promising future of personalized medicine for these therapeutics is predicted. |
