An introduction to Biomarkers[edit | edit source]
The Biomarkers Definitions Working Group defines biomarkers (biological markers) as ‘‘a measurable indicator of some biological state or condition that is objectively measured and evaluated to examine normal biological processes, pathogenic processes, or pharmacologic responses to a therapeutic intervention.’’ Biomarkers can be used as a diagnostic tool, disease staging tool, prognostic tool, or for predicting and monitoring the clinical response to an intervention.[1] Their characteristics can be molecular, histological, radiographical, or physiological.[2]
