Presentation Description / Summary: Recent advances in molecular diagnostic tests that provide insight into genetic mutations of a patient's tumor have the potential to improve clinical outcomes. However, there are multiple pharmacologic, pharmaceutical, and clinical pathology factors that may hinder the successful clinical application of this precision medicine approach. This presentation aims to highlight factors clinicians should consider when devising a treatment regimen based upon molecular test results.

Learner Outcomes: 

Describe how pharmacologic factors such as a drug’s engagement with its molecular targets, and its in vivo exposure can influence drug efficacy and safety.


Describe the pharmaceutical factors such as drug potency, purity, stability, and impurity characteristics, and the drug’s formulation on its efficacy and safety.


Describe the clinical pathology factors that need to be considered when interpreting results of molecular genetic test conducted on dogs with cancer.

Learning Objectives:

  • Describe how pharmacologic factors such as a drug’s engagement with its molecular targets, and its in vivo exposure can influence drug efficacy and safety.
  • Describe the pharmaceutical factors such as drug potency, purity, stability, and impurity characteristics, and the drug’s formulation on its efficacy and safety.
  • Describe the clinical pathology factors that need to be considered when interpreting results of molecular genetic test conducted on dogs with cancer.
