What seems far more beneficial is them devising a test to see if the particular medication is working as in 1/3 of cases it doesnt as its learnt to adapt and evolve.  Only Then it would be more successful. Would have been helpful for me as maybe had I known tamoxifen wasnt working i could have been on a different one. Hopefully this is their next step.
