Genome Sequencing Clears Up a Cancer Medical Mystery
Most experimental cancer drugs never make it to market because they
don't help enough people in early clinical trials. But even in
"failed" drug trials, researchers may find that a few patients see
their tumors shrink dramatically. Since it’s not clear why some
respond but most don’t, researchers typically shake their heads and
move on.
