Really hard. The successes have been few and far between. Many companies are looking to identify and incorporate biomarkers as part of their development plan. However, while companies often fixate on simple, “kittable” markers, the more powerful markers of the future—driven by leveraging NGS capabilities—will likely be complex.

It is for this reason, combined with the costs that make outsourcing cancer biomarker discovery a necessity for today’s pharma companies. |
