Abstract（摘要）：In decades, scientists have identified genes (biomarkers) that seem to be linked with diseases. To translate these great scientific findings into real-world products for those who need them (Personalized Medicine), clinical trials play an essential and important role. New approaches to the drug-development paradigm are needed, especially new designs for clinical trials so that genetics and other biomarkers can be incorporated to assist in patient and treatment selection. In this talk, I will be focusing on clinical trial designs that use genetics or other biomarkers. New designs are proposed and their properties are discussed. Some further research problems will also be discussed.
