Researchers have been looking for a safe, fast, less expensive and more accurate way to identify early signs of treatment resistance, while also searching for new insights into the genetic changes that occur within tumor cells to drive this resistance. This way, new therapy plans can be considered sooner, giving the patient a better chance for their best possible outcome.
