Mr. Editor:
Precision medicine is an individualized therapeutic modality that takes into account the genetic variability of patients, the environment in which they live and lifestyles, in order to draw up strategies for the prevention, diagnosis and treatment of diseases.
Cancer is a very heterogeneous disease, characterized by the development and accumulation of genetic alterations in the tumor cell throughout the development of the disease. However, few of these alterations are common; what has been shown with increasing evidence is that, each person expresses their own genetic profile of cancer.
