Personalized medicine in hematological malignancies:

a new horizon

Road map of my perspective

The NGS-PTL project:“From patients genomes, in few days, to be able to set up a individualized target therapy” with information by snps

array, transcriptome-GEP and NGS thus providing for each “hematological” patients an “avatar” with

pharmaco-genomic information, and providing targets suitable to personalized THERAPY.

• The 'state of the art' in haematological personalized medicine research

• Why a need to support haematological research?

reads for each gene

“Avatar” Diagnosis: es. BCR-ABL1 like ALL

RNA/DNA

Genome Analyzer II (Illumina/Solexa)/Roche 454

Old Classic therapy + ?(ex. Tki, Antibiotic, Vitamin,..)

Individual new therapy Old therapy combined with new (eg.TKI) therapy

1 week work = “molecular make up”

Individual New Target(s)

Extra Rapid (mins not months) Bioinformatics NGS analysis

( e.g. KNOME analysis)done by a medical doctor

“Back to bed, soon”

1 day work

The personalized “avatar” for each haematological patient to get right target

therapy, in a correct dosage, (possible at home)

CURESimulation or

Computer assisted decision, in vitro identification of new drugs, etc.

Design and apply experimental “individual” and personalized

clinical trial (need regulatory EMEA changes )

Partners

5 academic partners + 5 SMEs

1. To develop a European Hematological/NGS network of physicians and scientists.

2. To discover novel insights into the mechanisms involved in leukemogenesis and to develop genetic models that accurately define novel leukemia subtypes based on the genomic profile of individual patients.

3. To develop biostatistic and bioinformatic tools for coupling genomic data with clinical/molecular ones.

4. To develop “leukemia diagnostic panels” to drive personalized treatments and tailor therapies:

1. To different stratified groups of leukemia patients. 2. To treat elderly and unfit patients3. To provide out come therapies (home sweet home)
