Novel Applications of Biomarkers and Personalized Medicine in Cystic Fibrosis.

ABSTRACT

As routine care in cystic fibrosis (CF) becomes increasingly personalized, new opportunities to further focus care on the individual have emerged. These opportunities are increasingly filled through research in tools aiding drug selection, drug monitoring and titration, disease-relevant biomarkers, and evaluation of therapeutic benefits. Herein, we will discuss such research tools presently being translated into the clinic to improve the personalization of care in CF.
