Spatial competition constrains resistance to targeted cancer therapy
Adaptive therapy aims to control tumours by exploiting competition between therapy-sensitive and resistant cells. Here, the authors show that tumour spatial structure is a critical parameter for adaptive therapy as competition for space increases fitness differentials, allowing suppression of resist...
