FDA clears daily oral medication for specific advanced breast cancer cases

By using a blood test, doctors can identify treatment resistance ahead of scan results, which enables patients to switch therapies sooner. While clinical trial data indicated improved progression-free survival, further research is required to verify the long-term advantages for patients.
