Pharmacogenomics

Recorded webinar with Dr. Rahul Bhoyar on how genes influence medicine response. Understand pharmacogenomics, real examples & personalized prescriptions

In families with an inherited faulty gene, a unique pattern of specific cancers often weaves through generations, painting a story that’s deeply intertwined with your family’s history. Understanding the strength of this genetic tale involves a closer look at who in your family has faced the challenge of cancer, the types they’ve encountered, and their age at diagnosis. The more relatives who share similar or related cancer experiences, especially if they were diagnosed at a y

India faces over 1.4 million new cancer cases annually, making early detection vital. Pre-emptive germline testing through whole-genome sequencing offers faster, comprehensive insight into inherited cancer risks. It enables early detection, carrier screening, and cascade testing in families. Paired with pharmacogenomics, it helps tailor treatments to individual genetics, improving outcomes and reducing side effects—ushering in a new era of proactive, personalised cancer care.
