Abstract

The cost and time needed to conduct whole-genome sequencing (WGS) have decreased significantly in the last 20 years. At the same time, the number of conditions with a known molecular basis has steadily increased, as has the number of investigational new drug applications for novel gene-based therapeutics. The prospect of precision gene-targeted therapy for all seems in reach… or is it? Here we consider practical and strategic considerations that need to be addressed to establish a foundation for the early, effective, and equitable delivery of these treatments.

我们准备好为罕见疾病提供基因靶向治疗了吗?

在过去的20年中，进行全基因组测序(WGS)所需的成本和时间显著降低。与此同时，已知分子基础的疾病数量稳步增加，新型基因疗法的新药研究应用数量也在稳步增加。针对所有人的精确基因靶向治疗的前景似乎触手可及……或者是这样吗?在这里，我们考虑了需要解决的实际和战略考虑，以便为早期、有效和公平地提供这些治疗奠定基础。

期刊介绍： Seminars in Medical Genetics, Part C of the American Journal of Medical Genetics (AJMG) , serves as both an educational resource and review forum, providing critical, in-depth retrospectives for students, practitioners, and associated professionals working in fields of human and medical genetics. Each issue is guest edited by a researcher in a featured area of genetics, offering a collection of thematic reviews from specialists around the world. Seminars in Medical Genetics publishes four times per year.
