I am starting a company that produces a new screening test for pancreatic cancer. This disease is present in 1 in every 10,000 individuals, and my marker does not miss any of them! In testing normals, I find only 1 of every 100 individuals positive for my marker. There really is not a great chemotherapy for pancreatic cancer no matter when we find it. I am looking for venture capital for my test. Will you call your rich Uncle Freddie and tell him to invest?
A) No, the costs would be too high to screen 10,000 people to find one cancer.
B) No, the costs would be too high to scare 100 people for every one cancer I found.
C) No, there is no good chemotherapy for pancreatic cancer, so why find it?
D) all of the above
