With breast cancer, for example, those standards mean self-exams and mammograms after a set age and the usual chemotherapy, surgery to treat a tumour if one is found.

If the first treatment doesn’t work, doctors and patients move on to the next one and the next. It’s trial and error, with life on the line.

But each cancer in each person has its own genetic makeup – each tumour is a unique character with unique tendencies and vulnerabilities.

In some cases, the current standard of care may be the safest, most sensible option, but it’s also one size fits all.
