P4 Medicine in Cancer
Transformation of healthcare from f f freactive to preventive

Traditional medical practice has always been “reactive”, meaning that
the doctor intervenes when there is disease.
Theoretical (scale-free networks and complex systems), technological
(highly efficient “omic” technologies) and conceptual (systems biology)
advances of the last decade prelude the transition towards
“anticipatory” medicine centered on health and not disease.
“P4 Medicine” as it is Personalized, Predictive,
Preventive and Participatory
Transformation of healthcare from reactive to preventive
Personalized, Predictive, Preventive and Participatory medicine (P4 Medicine) centered on health
This change will be possible thanks to the advances made in the field of:
medicine (P4 Medicine) centered on health.

Networks dominate all aspects of human
health and disease
To understand the mechanisms of disease merely having a listTo understand the mechanisms of disease, merely having a list
of “disease genes” is not sufficient.
O d h h f i f h ll lOne needs the graph or map of connections of the cellular
components that are influenced by these genes and by the p y g y
products of said genes.
Th i t f ifi lt ti i l l d tiThe existence of specific alterations in molecular and genetic
networks brings into play the possibility that
diseases are not as independent from each other
as they are generally considered.
There is a great number of diseases that despite having differentThere is a great number of diseases that, despite having different
forms of clinical expression, form part of a same network.
Diseasome
The network of human diseases that share common
ti d l l l tgenetic and molecular elementos
The contemporary classification of diseases is fundamentally
New approach in the classification of diseases based on four different networks
that interact:
based on clinical presentation (phenotypes)
that interact:
1) Principal molecular abnormality (primary genome or proteome) associated
with the principal phenotype;
2) Modifier genes or proteins of the main phenotype principal (secondary
genome or proteome);
3) Polymorphisms or haplotypes (intermediate phenotype) that influence each
genetic response to stress (inflammation, apoptosis, proliferation, reparation);
4) Environmental determinants.
Based on the confirmation of the pathophysiological relevance of these four
networks new alternatives can be considered for optimizing therapeuticnetworks, new alternatives can be considered for optimizing therapeutic
approaches to disease:
To identify new therapeutic targets (for example, the androgenic receptor in
prostate cancer,
To determine the appropriate dosage of a medication, based on its metabolic
profile,profile,
To establish the ca ses of resistance to treatments or to impro e the to icitTo establish the causes of resistance to treatments or to improve the toxicity
of drugs.
Phenotypic Disease Network
Differences between race and sex.
The Phenotypic Disease Network (PDN) have beenThe Phenotypic Disease Network (PDN) have been
generated by reviewing the electronic clinical data of
more than 30 million patients (Medicare)
The PDN study shows that:
1) patients develop diseases that are closer to each other in the
networknetwork
2) progression of the disease along the links of the network is2) progression of the disease along the links of the network is
different between patients of different sexes and different ethnicities
3) patients diagnosed with diseases that have many connections in
th PDN t d t di b f th ff t d b l t dthe PDN tend to die before those affected by less-connected
diseases
4) Diseases that tend to be preceded by others in the PDN tend to
be more connected than diseases that precede others, and they
are associated with higher mortality rates
The phrase “P4 Medicine”
(Personali ed Predicti e Pre enti e and Participator )
P4 Medicine(Personalized, Predictive, Preventive and Participatory)
was coined by David Galas and Leroy Hood.
Biological complexity are studied based on three fundamental
premises:premises:
1) There are two types of biological information:1) There are two types of biological information:
digital genome information and environmental information,
t id th th t difi id di it l i f tioutside the genome, that modifies said digital information
2) biological information is captured, processed, integrated and
t f d b f bi l i l t k (RNA t itransferred by means of biological networks (RNA, proteins,
controlling regions of the genes and small molecules) to the
fmolecular systems that execute vital functions
It is said that P4 Medicine will be “personalized” because it will be based on the
genetic information of each individual;
it will be “predictive” because this personalized information will be able to
determine the risk for certain diseases in each individual;determine the risk for certain diseases in each individual;
It will be “preventive” because, given the prediction of risk, prophylactic
measures will be able to be taken (lifestyle or therapeutic) to decrease risk;
and, last of all, it will be “participative” because many of these prophylactic
interventions will undeniably require the participation of the patient.
Due to such participation, one of the most traditional
aspects of clinical practice will therefore disappear:
doctor‐patient paternalism.doctor patient paternalism.
Human Genome Project (HGP) The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA)
Planed in 1984 Started in 1990
Completed in 2003
Started in 2005Expanded into phase II in 2009
Continued up to nowCompleted in 2003 Continued up to now
The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) Research Network has profiled and analyzed
large numbers of human tumors to discover molecular aberrations at the DNA,
RNA, protein and epigenetic levels.
The resulting rich data provide a major opportunity to develop an integrated
picture of commonalities, differences and emergent themes across tumor p , g
lineages.
The Pan-Cancer initiative compares the first 12 tumor types profiled by TCGA.
Analysis of the molecular aberrations and their functional roles across tumorAnalysis of the molecular aberrations and their functional roles across tumor
types will teach us how to extend therapies effective in one cancer type to others
with a similar genomic profile.

(1) Because a differential diagnosis between primary and metastatic tumors may be difficult in poorly differentiated ovarian neoplasms, breast carcinoma markers (Gross cystic disease fluid protein 15 GCDFP-15) is helpful in establishing the primary site of origin.

It is reasonable to evaluate one of the MUC-1 assays and CEA initially in a patient with metastatic disease. If the MUC-1 assay is elevated, there appears to be no role for monitoring CEA, but if not, then CEA levels may provide supplementary information to the clinician in addition to clinical and radiographic investigations.

Evaluation of risk of recurrencePrediction of recurrence& outcomeReason of measurement
(1) A low RS predicts good outcome in patients treated with adjuvant tamoxifen (patients predicted to have a goodoutcome may be able to avoid having to undergo treatment with adjuvant chemotherapy), a high RS is found to be associated with favourable outcome in patients treated with either neoadjuvant or adjuvant chemotherapy (ie, patients with high recurrence score appear to derive greater benefit from chemotherapy than those with low scores).(2) This test uses RT-PCR to measure the expression 21 genes (16 cancer associated and five control genes). Based ( ) p g ( g )on the expression of these genes, a recurrence score (RS) was calculated that predicted low, intermediate and high riskof distant metastasis.(3) It is a gene expression profiling platform measured by quantitative RT-PCR. The precise clinical utility and appropriate application of the MammaPrint assay is under investigation.
