Instead of just assuming a patient is refractory because they’ve relapsed, Gisselbrecht’s team wanted a more precise definition.
In collaboration with several companies and cancer centers, Gisselbrecht’s team determined several types of refractory patients.
By defining different groups of relapsed patients, prognostic factors can be determined for specific populations, says Gisselbrecht.
