Over 2000 patients have now been recruited to the trial, which uses a blood test to 'match' patients to targeted treatments.
The Target National trial @TheChristieNHS, analyses a patient's DNA to determine what type of therapy will work best for them. The trial is possible thanks to funding from The Christie Charity.
