Improving publication rates of biomarker results from cancer trials

Robert Iannone. Clin Cancer Res. .

This commentary reflects on the publication by Freeman and Kimmelman, which points to a potentially low publication rate of biomarker results from cancer clinical trials requiring nondiagnostic biopsies.
