Advantages of Biosystematic Platform

It is far better to study your enemy before the fight, rather than having to learn as you go
Without the advantage of knowing how cancer cells will respond to a chemotherapy drug before it is administered, physicians face an unmitigated risk that the wrong chemotherapy could further weaken a patient’s immune system while allowing the cancer to continue its progression. Ultimately, use of ineffective drugs during initial therapy may lead to treatment failure.

The most effective use of cytotoxic chemotherapy is in the first-line setting. While some patients present with inherently resistant disease, it is possible that the resistance identified against one "standard" regimen may not be obtained with all regimens. "Functional Profiling" can help make the right choices for patients whether at first-line therapy or thereafter.
