According to Lai Gi-ming, "Cancer is composed of different types of cells, and chemotherapy may kill only one type. Each patient responds differently." Lai believes that in order to be truly effective, chemotherapy must be tailored the to patient and their particular type of cancer, with doctors trying different approaches and combinations.
「癌症是不同細胞的組合，一種治療方式往往只能殺掉其中一部分的癌細胞，每個人的效果也不一樣，」賴基銘認為，必須要對症、個體化用藥，嘗試不同的方法與組合，才能達到治療效果。
