On distingue actuellement trois approches majeures : le gène-médicament, la protéine-médicament et le ligand-médicament. Le gène-médicament permet d'envisager de «réparer» un gène défectueux ou d'adjoindre dans les cellules un gène codant pour une protéine potentiellement thérapeutique : c'est l'approche par thérapie génique.
