27. Copyright 2008 Thomson Corporation 27 T H O M S O N S C I E N T I F I C What Is a Biomarker? Biomarker: A characteristic that is objectively measured and evaluated as an indicator of normal biological processes, pathogenic processes or pharmacologic responses to a therapeutic intervention. From: Biomarkers Definitions Working Group. Biomarkers and surrogate endpoints: Preferred definitions and conceptual framework. Clin Pharmacol Ther 2001; 69(3): 89-95

28. Copyright 2008 Thomson Corporation 28 T H O M S O N S C I E N T I F I C Why Are Biomarkers Important? Biomarkers constitute an essential piece in the landscape of modern medicine and may be critical for: –Validating proof of concept in animal models –Facilitating early diagnosis and selection for therapy –Staging disease –Defining individualized response to drug treatment –Measuring disease prognosis –Determining early efficacy –Monitoring safety

29. Copyright 2008 Thomson Corporation 29 T H O M S O N S C I E N T I F I C Our Data Proposition Thomson Scientifics biomarkers initiative will form a single, authoritative and trusted repository of knowledge covering biomarkers in research and in use. It will place this knowledge in context, enabling users to assess at a glance the relative importance of different biomarkers. Our initiative will expand this to provide a comprehensive, up-to-date body of timely, reliable knowledge on a wide range of biomarkers in different lifecycle phases and disciplines.

30. Copyright 2008 Thomson Corporation 30 T H O M S O N S C I E N T I F I C Our Data Proposition Biomarker records will include: –Biomarker name(s) –Classification –Biological entities / process involved –Associated drugs –Role or utility –Pipeline status –Validity –Measurement techniques –Diagnostic kits (where available)
