Abstract
Many drugs used to treat inflammatory diseases are ineffective in a substantial proportion of patients. Identifying patients that are likely to respond to specific therapies would facilitate personalized treatment strategies that could improve outcomes while reducing costs and risks of adverse events. Despite these clear benefits, there are limited examples of predictive biomarkers of drug efficacy currently implemented into clinical practice for inflammatory diseases. We review efforts to identify genetic and nongenetic biomarkers of drug response in these diseases and consider potential benefits from combining multiple sources of biological data into multifeature predictive models.
