There is an active interest looking across both plasma and urine and better understanding how technologies in these types of spaces better anticipate resistance as well as treat resistance if it occurs, explains Husain.
It is important to find a way to chronicle how the evolution of the tumor changes and develop strategies and algorithms to better treat and combat those evolutionary pathways, states Husain.
