Supporting the development of targeted therapeutics

Genomics in Drug Discovery & Development

Next-generation sequencing (NGS) and other genomic analysis technologies can help pharmaceutical and biotech researchers better understand the genetic variants associated with various diseases. These insights can accelerate drug discovery efforts and support the development of targeted therapeutics and multi-analyte tumor analysis. NGS also opens the door for discovery of novel methods to monitor cancer treatment and recurrence.

lllumina brings innovation to drug discovery and development by offering comprehensive genomic solutions working in collaboration with leading pharmaceutical providers.

Companion Diagnostics Development

As targeted therapies make their way through pharmaceutical pipelines, the need for detailed biomarker information and companion diagnostics is increasing.

Panomics-Based Drug Discovery

Pharmaceutical and biotech scientists leading targeted drug discovery efforts have traditionally focused on inhibiting or modulating the function of abnormal proteins. But diseases could also potentially be treated in the future by controlling gene expression. In this podcast episode, Dr. Eric R. Olson of Syros Pharmaceuticals explains how epigenomics is enabling a paradigm shift in drug discovery.
