Targeted Therapy: Precision Medicine in the Fight Against Disease
Author(s): Mustafa Dalal*
Targeted therapy has emerged as a cornerstone of precision medicine, offering tailored treatment strategies that specifically
target molecular vulnerabilities driving disease progression. Unlike conventional therapies, which often result in widespread
toxicity and limited efficacy, targeted therapy aims to disrupt key molecular pathways implicated in the pathogenesis of disease
while sparing healthy tissues. This article explores the principles, modalities, applications, challenges, and future directions
of targeted therapy across a spectrum of diseases, including cancer, autoimmune disorders, infectious diseases, and genetic
disorders. By leveraging the molecular insights provided by genomics and biomarker discovery, targeted therapy holds promise
for revolutionizing patient care, improving treatment outcomes, and advancing the field of personalized medicine. However,
