Cancer – New Research, Better Outcome

Precision medicine is touted to be the future of healthcare, including in cancer treatments. Producing a personalised treatment for every cancer patient may sound impractical, not to mention wildly expensive; but this approach is expected to boost success rate precisely for every single patient. The question is, how do we know all the right targets to produce all the right drugs for every patient? Clinical Oncologist, Dr Mastura Md Yusof, shares the tedious effort to find the cure for cancer. This show is brought to you in collaboration with Pfizer Malaysia.
