Abstract
Alışılagelmiş tıp anlayışında hastalıklar üzerine odaklanılmış, aynı hastalığa sahip farklı bireylerde aynı tedavi yöntemleri uygulanmıştır ancak gelişen tıp bilimi sürecinde aynı hastalığın farklı kişilerde aynı seyretmeyeceği ve dolayısıyla da tedavinin aynı olamayacağı gerçeği doğmuştur. Bu nedenle hastalıktan ziyade bireyler daha ön plana çıkmaktadır ki bu bağlamda gelişen teknolojik altyapı ile beraber hassas tıp (precision medicine) kavramı hayatımıza girmiştir. Hassas tıp terimi nispeten yeni olsa da kavram olarak uzun yıllardır sağlık hizmetlerinin bir parçası olarak yer almaktadır. İmmünolojik hastalıkların tedavisinde hassas tıp tedavi stratejileri temel olarak üç farklı tedavi yaklaşımını içermektedir. Eksik moleküllerin yerine konulması; aşırı aktif hücre içi sinyalizasyonun inhibisyonu ve sitokin blokajı. Hassas tıp İVİG, PEG-ADA ve IFN-γ gibi immünoloji kliniklerinde uzun yıllardır kullanılan tedavi yaklaşımları yanında pleriksafor, sirolimus ve vedolizumab gibi son senelerde bulunmuş daha nadir kullanılan tedavileri de kapsamaktadır. Günümüzde artan teknolojik alt yapı ile yeni moleküler yolakların tanımlanması şüphesiz bir çok hastalığın tedavisinde hassas tıp kavramının daha etkin olarak kullanılacağı günleri getirecektir.
In the conventional medical understanding, the focus has been on diseases, the same treatment methods have been applied to different individuals with the same disease, but the fact that the same disease will not be the same in different people and therefore the treatment cannot be the same has emerged. For this reason, individuals are more prominent than disease, and in this context, precision medicine concept has entered our lives with the developing technological infrastructure. Although the term precision medicine is relatively new, the concept has been a part of healthcare for many years. In the treatment of immunological diseases, sensitive medicine treatment strategies basically include three different treatment approaches. Replacement of “missing molecules”, inhibition of overactive intracellular signaling and cytokine blockade. Along with the treatment approaches which have been most frequently used in immunology clinics for many years such as IVIG, PEG-ADA and IFN-y, precision medicine also includes relatively rarer treatments that have been discovered lately such as pleriksafor, sirolimus and vedolizumab. Defining new molecular pathways with today’s increasing technological infrastructure will undoubtedly bring the days when the concept of precision medicine will be used more effectively in the treatment of many diseases.
