Re: medicine tool could help personalize cancer treatments

thanks jean. we're all waiting for a reliable test to predict treatment outcome and one that's also low cost enough to be available to everyone. I know the doctors are as anxious as patients for one.

Re: medicine tool could help personalize cancer treatments

Sarah,
So true, there is a tremendous amount of research being performed. I don't think we can single out one drug and have to be realistic.
With all the different types of cancer (over 300) the research that is on going is massive.

I am hoping like many that the future will hold great strides.

Jean
