I believe that 2cureX has the opportunity to introduce the IndiTreat™ test as a general tool in the oncologist’s tool box to select the optimal treatment for cancer patients. I am excited to be part of the 2cureX journey and help in making key stakeholders aware of IndiTreat™ and thereby assisting in increasing the value of the company.”
