Quantitative Analysis

A great deal of anticipation and expectation surrounds personalised medicine. While there have been some notable successes, the promise of personalised medicine – right medicine, right patient, right time – has failed to materialise in many disease areas where a personalised approach could drive better patient outcomes. Concerns amongst key stakeholder groups remain, particularly in relation to development, access and implementation of personalised healthcare strategies.

This survey provides EU5 physician insights into personalised medicine within the oncology setting. By understanding what oncologists in the major markets in Europe think about the key challenges, opportunities and concerns, companies operating in the oncology market and seeking to leverage personalised medicine for their products can gain a deep understanding of what's needed to drive long-term commercial success.
