Test Predicts Who Can Benefit From Chemo

NewsFactor Network - - Test Predicts Who Can Benefit From Chemo:

"A genetic profiling test already on the market accurately predicts which breast cancer patients will benefit from chemotherapy and which won't, giving women a powerful tool to help decide whether to undergo the ordeal, scientists report."

About time and another great example of where our money and research can go. If chemo works, it's fantastic....if it doesn't, it is absolutely hideous and we don't talk about it. Thank heavens we are using our brains and research dollar to save people from this awful dilemma of not knowing if it will go wrong or not. As I have said before, we have enough challenges on this planet to give us all an intellectual work out without creating man made disasters.
