REPORT OVERVIEW
WHAT YOU WILL LEARN
One aspect of personalized medicine is certain; it is complicated. If you happen to have a highly scientific background, you actually may be able to define the term. However, if you polled five people very familiar with personalized medicine, you should expect to hear five different definitions.
ISR wanted to understand where oncologists stand on the topic of personalized medicine. We interviewed 101 US-based, board-certified oncologists to gather their views on how familiar they are with personalized medicine, how they are treating patients, what tests are being used and which will be used more, and how their patient treatment regimens could evolve in the future.

INTRODUCTIONWelcome to ISR’s Personalized Medicine’s Effect on Oncologists’ Treatment Regimens report�
If you have been in the pharmaceutical industry for any length of time, it is likely that you have heard of the term “personalized medicine�” If you happen to have a highly scientific background, you actually may be able to define the term� However, if you polled five people very familiar with personalized medicine, you should expect to hear five different definitions�
Personalized medicine got a shot in the arm (maybe a pun) in January 2015 when President Obama from the United States indicated during his State of the Union address that the US would “unveil details about the Precision Medicine Initiative, a bold new research effort to revolutionize how we improve health and treat disease� Launched with a $215 million investment in the President’s 2016 Budget, the Precision Medicine Initiative will pioneer a new model of patient-powered research that promises to accelerate biomedical discoveries and provide clinicians with new tools, knowledge, and therapies to select which treatments will work best for which patients�” Further details on the initiative, including where the money is going and what the goals are, can be found at https://www�whitehouse�gov/the-press-office/2015/01/30/fact-sheet-president-obama-s-precision-medicine-initiative�
One aspect of personalized medicine is certain; it is complicated� For example, perhaps the posterchild for personalized medicine is Genentech’s Herceptin� The
