Although targeted therapies are prescribed on the basis of a patient's molecular makeup, they do not work every time.

In response, researchers have developed a number of systems whose goal it is to predict which drugs will be effective for an individual patients.
Prophet, Oncohost Ltd.’s artificial intelligence-driven proteomics profiling platform, predicted response to immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) therapy in non-small-cell lung carcinoma (NSCLC) patients in a study presented at the European Society for Medical Oncology Virtual Congress 2021. While ICI can generate a significant positive response in some patients with advanced NSCLC, in others the therapy promotes tumor growth, making identification of likely responders prior to treatment critical.
