Most drugs and therapies introduced to date do not perform equally well for all patients, with significant differences in efficacy and safety among individuals. Frequently, a considerable proportion of patients simply do not respond, resulting in wasted therapy costs and no benefit to the patient.
A simple test that can accurately predict whether an individual will respond to a given medication would benefit all patients, clinicians, and reimbursement authorities, as well as create new drug development opportunities for non-responsive patient groups.
