      looks like some people get the wrong genetic hand of cards re immunotherapy ? Making them super progressors rather than superresponders….not what we really wanted to hear… but there will be more research on this to come.

      We  need those liquid biopsy and biomarkers asap….to help with patient selection . This research can't come fast enough.
