Cancer patients approach their diagnosis with a sense of terror. One day they are fine and feeling well and the next, a terminal diagnosis.

Rising corporate influence and focus on reimbursement in medicine now discourage doctors from straying from strict treatment guidelines.

Cancer therapy can be really expensive. But here's the kicker, Functional Profiling costs way less than receiving the incorrect treatment.

Although she showed some response, her disease persisted and she was being considered for surgery to remove the residual tumor...

George Brown is alive today because our laboratory analysis identified a simple 2 drug combination that now one else thought to give him.

Personalized treatment means more cured patients. More people survive cancer when our Functional Profiling system is used before treatment.

However, a new dilemma has arisen; the failure of surgeons to comply with Pancreatic Cancer patient’s wishes to have tissue submitted.

There has been talk of improved survival in cancer, most progress has reflected screening, early diagnosis, improved staging, and support.

Extremely rare liver cancer that mostly affects people in their twenties associated with a gene rearrangement, mostly lethal, until now.

Patients are being encouraged to contact the researchers to get biopsies and help take charge of their disease.
