Watson Genomics gives personalized insights for cancer care and treatment. It simplifies genomic data interpretation for personalized cancer treatment.
2. Watson Genomics
• Personalized treatments target cancer cells
containing specific genetic mutations.
• Deciding which target therapies are appropriate is
difficult
• Requires analysis of massive amounts of data
which is time-consuming
3. Watson Genomics
• Cancer treatment with genomic sequencing
• Put to use AI capabilities and genomic tumor
sequencing to determine the best-suited
treatment
• Individualized cancer care
• To study many drug-resistant tumors
4. How it works
• Doctors to send patient's tissue sample for
genetic sequencing
• Genomic information would then be fed to
Watson
• It shifts through latest cancer research and
drug trials quickly to identify the exact
treatments
5. How it works
• Watson Genomics reads the genetic alteration
files, professional guidelines, medical
literature, clinical trials and other sources of
knowledge
• A report containing annotations for each
genome alteration is generated
• Interpreting results which typically took longer
than a week is reduced to minutes by Watson
