National Institutes of Health researchers have published an assessment of 13 studies that took a genotype-first approach to patient care. This approach contrasts with the typical phenotype-first approach to clinical research, which starts with clinical findings. The study was published in the American Journal of Human Genetics.

Awareness of rare diseases is growing, and with a better understanding of the pathophysiology of many rare diseases, innovative treatment options are emerging, like gene therapies that can treat the root cause of rare genetic diseases and potentially provide long-term symptom relief, or even a definitive cure.

PrecisionLife and the University of Oxford have signed a data access agreement to license the Oxford Endometriosis Gene (OXEGENE) dataset to develop new personalised treatments for endometriosis patients. Endometriosis affects 10% of women globally, but on average it takes over seven years for patients to receive a diagnosis.

The cost of testing per human genome in 2006 was approximately $14 million , and in less than two decades, an average consumer-purchased genetic test costs $100. The same is becoming true for the healthcare industry, and one of the first major breakthroughs in the area was the 100,000 Genomes Project.

Pharmacogenomics, the understanding of how genes impact an individual’s response to medications, provides a potential outlet to better optimised therapies. There have been great strides made in genomics to refine tools that determine the safest, most effective course of treatments for patients across a number of disease states.
