When a tumour evolves resistance to one drug, it sometimes becomes weaker against another. Map these trade-offs systematically so doctors can pick the next drug to exploit them.
Collateral sensitivity is well characterised in antibiotics and shown in a few oncology examples (MEK-inhibitor resistance sensitising to certain agents, ABL inhibitor rotation in CML). A systematic programme would evolve resistance to each approved targeted agent in dozens of models, screen the resistant derivatives against the full pharmacopoeia, and publish a public sensitivity map to inform sequencing trials.
