Summary: | Cancer biomarkers are emerging as important tools for disease diagnosis, prediction and prognosis. A significant number of studies have been reported in the field of biomarker discovery due to their potential as personalized targeted therapy. With the converging gap about their utilization as specific targets, studies have focused on identifying disease-specific biomarkers in different cancer types. This chapter provides a comprehensive overview about different cancer-associated biomarkers, their prevalence in different cancer types and their use as targeted therapy. Additionally, we provide an in-sight on the therapeutic and diagnostic potential of different noncoding RNAs as cancer biomarkers. |
