Re: 24-hour Test Predicts Breast Cancer's Likely Response To Chemotherapy

Abstract

May not be the best test available..but quick and likely better guidance than random chemo selection:

Quote:
Low RAD51 score was strongly predictive of pathological complete response to chemotherapy, with 33% low RAD51 score cancers achieving pathological complete response compared to 3% of other cancers (p=0.011).
It's all relative to guessing.....

I do like the idea that these coming PARP inhibitors may be useful outside their initial boundaries...(more tools please)
