Re: any tumor tests to predict which chemos work better?

Greg,
Any idea what Amanda's (above) actual tests were? From earlier:
Quote:
I live in Australia and currently have tumor tissue from my initial surgery being tested. It is being tested by a government laboratory and the testing is in R&D phase - I understand that initial testing is chemosentivity of which we have preliminary results after a few months. The additional testing is various types of assays?

Also "massive release of cells into the circulation" thought to happen during surgery..kindofa drawback of going after samples sometimes. Just sayin'.
