What are the challenges in interpreting cancer treatment outcomes?
Evaluating the effectiveness of cancer treatment is another area rife with challenges. Responses to treatment can vary widely among patients due to differences in tumor biology and individual health factors. Moreover, traditional metrics like tumor size reduction may not always reflect the true efficacy of a treatment, especially with newer therapies like immunotherapy. Advanced imaging techniques and liquid biopsies are being developed to provide more accurate assessments, but their interpretation requires specialized knowledge.
