HCC & Breast Cancer

Are breast cancer a part of HCC and then if not maybe WCG should consider starting their own project on breast cancer.

There is a new cooperative named the Pink Army Cooperative for breast cancer. They are developing personalized medicine for breast cancer victims treating only one person to begin with. Making individual tissue in laboratory (in vitro) for cure (in vivo).

As far as I know (and understand) HCC is accumulating knowledge to help research on all kinds of cancer.

WCG does not start any project of their own. Projects run at WCG are always initiated and submitted by scientific labs.

Re: HCC & Breast Cancer

Hello - on one side, we do not bias against specific proteins, but till recently we have been actively working only on lung, ovarian, prostate, and head&neck cancers. We have recently started expanding analysis into breast cancer, but it will take us some time to start making predictions for the HCC pipeline.

sincerely,
Igor
