The Future of Pulmonary Fibrosis Management: Precision Medicine, Biomarkers and AI

Author(s)Eric Cannon, PharmD, FAMCP

Eric Cannon, PharmD, FAMCP, discusses how precision medicine advancements and biomarker development can enable targeted idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) and progressive pulmonary fibrosis (PPF) therapies by identifying patient subgroups most likely to benefit from specific interventions. Artificial intelligence (AI) integration offers potential for earlier diagnosis, improved prognostication and personalized treatment optimization through data pattern recognition.
