Artificial intelligence-based biomarkers for treatment decisions in oncology

The development of new therapeutic strategies such as immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) and targeted therapies has increased the complexity of the treatment landscape for solid tumors. At the current rate of annual FDA approvals, the potential treatment options could increase by tenfold over the next 5 years. The cost of personalized medicine technologies limits its accessibility, thus increasing socioeconomic disparities in the treated population. In this review we describe artificial intelligence (AI)-based solutions - including deep learning (DL) methods for routine medical imaging and large language models (LLMs) for electronic health records (EHRs) - to support cancer treatment decisions with…
