| abstract |
The present invention relates to an ex vivo method and means for determining the risk estimate of side effects of a drug and/or probability estimate of drug response in a subject, the method comprising collecting the mass spectra of substances present in the exhaled breath and analyzing the mass spectra using a previously trained mathematical model. The instant methods and means are particularly useful in therapeutic drug monitoring, determining the risk estimate of side effects of a drug, determining the probability estimate of drug response in the subject, and determination of subject compliance. |
