Abstract

Matching genetically defined cancer states to drugs that specifically target these states is a principal goal of personalized oncology medicine. In this issue, McMillan et al. show how large-scale chemical screening coupled to deep molecular profiling can identify mechanistically diverse druggable vulnerabilities for genetic subtypes of lung cancers.
