Abstract: Background: Biochemical analysis plays a crucial role in personalizing treatment for chronic diseases such as diabetes and cancer. This study investigates the impact of biochemical markers on treatment adjustments and patient outcomes in a hospital setting.

Methods: A total of 200 patients were included, with 100 each suffering from diabetes and cancer. Biochemical markers (HbA1c, C-peptide, HER2, EGFR mutations) were monitored at baseline, 24 hours, and 3 months post-treatment. Clinical outcomes and treatment modifications based on these markers were assessed.

Results: For diabetes patients, personalized treatment led to a significant reduction in HbA1c (1.0%) and improvements in lipid profiles. In cancer patients, treatment adjustments based on HER2 and EGFR levels resulted in improved progression-free survival and overall survival rates. Treatment modifications were made for 32% of diabetes patients and 28% of cancer patients.

Conclusion: Biochemical analysis significantly influences personalized treatment plans, leading to improved management and outcomes for chronic disease patients. Integrating biochemical markers into clinical decision-making enhances therapeutic efficacy and patient care.

Keywords: Biochemical analysis, personalized medicine, diabetes, cancer, HbA1c, HER2, EGFR, treatment outcomes
