Very promising, but my understanding is that it will quite a few years before this becomes an approved treatment.

I have wonder if some our BCO friends that have passed away from this disease could have been saved. Was their tumor mutations even looked at. I mean years of suffering through chemo treatments then finally succumbing to the disease. I say more needs to be done, I don't think my mutations were looked at.

I understand it is a very long shot but are people even getting evaluated?
