Top Highlights

  • Many notable innovations have recently emerged in oncology, including CAR-T cell therapy, liquid biopsies and CRISPR-based treatment — most stemming from biological science fields, such as genomics, pathology and immunology.
  • the rapid rise of digital and data-driven technology in healthcare — such as artificial intelligence (AI), the Internet of things (IoT) and robotics — could offer unprecedented potential in the fight against cancer.
  • Such technologies could also drastically transform the timeline for developing new drugs, making it a matter of months rather than years.
  • Quantum computing, for example, could have the potential to rapidly advance drug discovery and clinical trials.
  • AI shows incredible promise to vastly improve early detection and prevention rates too.
