Genomics in Medical Specialties - Oncology: Cancer Treatment

Oncology is one of the most exciting fields in terms of rapid developments in genomics. Now more than ever, genomics is applicable across all areas of medicine and healthcare and in the case of cancer care it provides opportunities to prevent and treat cancers on a more individual level. Improved technologies, increased understanding of genomic data, and the increased availability and affordability of testing have resulted in changes to the way in which patients and their families are treated and cared for. As genomics becomes embedded into routine care, it's important that all oncologists have an understanding of where genomics may be relevant and how to manage and base decisions on genomic data. In this film, Dr Ellen Copson, consultant medical oncologist in Southampton, explains how genomics can be used to inform treatment and management decisions in oncology, as well as some of the challenges that genomic data poses. Using examples from her clinical practice, she outlines some of the new advances in cancer treatment and looks at what might be possible in the future. Our Genomics in Medical Specialties series has been developed in collaboration with champions of genomics from a range of disciplines to provide key facts and useful information.
