Predicting Therapeutic Resistance to Tamoxifen in Cancer Treatment
Summary:
Currently, patients with ER+ breast cancer are administered tamoxifen without considering their potential response to this therapy. Thousands of women take the tamoxifen only to discover that their tumors do not respond or that they develop resistance over time. The ability to screen patients ahead of the therapy administration can improve...

Panel & Software to Predict Therapeutic Resistance in Cancer Treatment
Invention Summary:According to the American Cancer Society, prostate cancer is the second most common malignancy in men and the second-highest cancer-related cause of death in American men. Androgen deprivation therapy (ADT), which reduces or prevents male hormones (androgens) from interacting with cancer cells, has been shown to be beneficial in treating...
