This book describes the changing role of pathology in aiding reproducible and accurate patient selection for predictive cancer therapy. Particular attention is given to the clinical application of cutting-edge cancer biomarkers to accurately select patients for targeted cancer therapy and how artificial intelligence can improve the precision of treatments. The advent and basis of predictive cancer care, the role of pathologists in translational cancer research, the analysis of cancer samples, the management of biopsy results, and the accuracy of biopsy results are also discussed.

Precision Cancer Medicine: Role of the Pathologist details how pathologists can use the latest biomarkers and apply artificial intelligence technology in cancer diagnosis and management. It is also relevant to oncologists and medical practitioners involved in cancer management seeking an up-to-date resource on the topic.

Over the past 40 years Dr Jasani has devoted himself to advancing cancer pathology based on the use of cancer biomarkers. As the Head of Molecular Diagnostic Unit, University Hospital of Wales (1982-2003), he led the development and establishment of diagnostic immunocytochemistry & molecular pathology services in Cardiff and Wales. He also promoted quality assurance and standardization of cancer biomarker analyses as Breast Cancer Module Leader of UKNEQAS of IHC/ISH, and UK's lead representative on International Working Group on Standardization of Breast Cancer Biomarking, and the United States Sub-Committee on Quality Assurance for Immunocytochemistry. As Principal Investigator and Co-investigator of several translational research projects on development of predictive biomarkers for colorectal and breast cancer, he has also been invited to act as a Consultant and Key Opinion Leader to several leading biotech and pharmaceutical companies. He is an author of a book, over 50 chapters and reviews and more than 200 peer reviewed research publications.   Ralf Huss, M.D., Ph.D. Ralf Huss holds an M.D. degree from the University of Erlangen-Nuremberg, and Ph.D. degree from the Ludwig-Maximilians-University Munich.

Rezensionen
"Research and clinical applications are woven throughout to provide real-world examples and illustrate future potential. The book is written with an international audience in mind, focusing on the American perspective for regulatory issues, with frequent reference to Clinical Laboratory Improvement Amendments for laboratory accreditation and the Food and Drug Administration for drug and companion diagnostic approvals. ... The authors are to be congratulated on comprehensive coverage of so many novel concepts in this very readable and accessible text." (Emily Shaw, The Bulletin of The Royal College of Pathologists, Issue 202, April, 2023)
