NEW YORK – Researchers within the Worldwide Innovative Networking (WIN) Consortium are pushing ahead with research to try to show that a transcriptomic algorithm can more precisely predict the extent to which cancer patients might benefit from targeted treatments or immunotherapy compared to genomic biomarkers.

In a paper published in NPJ Precision Oncology this week, researchers co-led by Vladimir Lazar, WIN's chief scientific and operating officer, described the development of a prototype
