Predicting an individual's response to treatment remains a major challenge in clinical oncology. Current methods rely on clinical and biological risk factors identified prior to therapy, such as tumor stage, histological grade, or tumor genotype. These factors are associated with differences in response and survival in the population; however, their ability to predict outcome for an individual...
