variability in treatment

Why Does Treatment Variability Occur?

Treatment variability occurs due to several reasons:
Genetic Differences: Each patient's cancer can have unique genetic mutations, leading to different responses to treatments.
Tumor Heterogeneity: Tumors can vary in their cellular makeup, which can affect how they respond to therapies.
Healthcare Access: Availability of advanced treatments and technologies can differ by location and healthcare system.
Clinical Guidelines: Variations in local or national clinical guidelines can lead to different treatment protocols.
Patient Preferences: Personal preferences and values can influence the choice of treatment options.
