Understanding the trajectory of cancer is crucial for several reasons:
Personalized Treatment: By knowing how a patient's cancer is likely to progress, treatments can be personalized to target specific stages of the disease. Early Detection: Identifying early signs of progression can lead to earlier intervention, which can significantly improve outcomes. Resource Allocation: Helps in allocating medical resources more efficiently by focusing on high-risk patients or stages. Research: It aids in understanding the mechanisms of cancer progression, which can lead to new therapeutic targets.
