Biomarker development requires rigorous validation across large and diverse patient populations to ensure their reliability and reproducibility. This validation process can be time-consuming and costly. The development of robust and reliable laboratory techniques for detecting and measuring biomarkers is critical. Standardizing these techniques across different laboratories and platforms can be challenging, affecting the consistency and comparability of results. The development and implementation of biomarkers for cancer diagnosis involve ethical considerations, such as ensuring patient privacy, obtaining informed consent, and addressing issues of equity and access to testing. Regulatory approval processes and adherence to quality control standards also play a crucial role in biomarker development.
