Title:

METHODS FOR IDENTIFICATION, ASSESSMENT, AND TREATMENT OF PATIENTS RECEIVING CANCER THERAPY

Document Type and Number:

Japanese Patent JP2016101174

Kind Code:

A

Abstract:

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide identification of predictive markers that can be used to clinically determine whether patients with cancer are responsive or non-responsive to a therapeutic regimen prior to treatment.SOLUTION: In particular, the present invention is directed to the use of certain individual and/or combinations of predictive markers, where the expression of the predictive markers correlates with responsiveness or non-responsiveness to a therapeutic regimen. Thus, by examining the expression levels of individual predictive markers and/or predictive markers included in a marker set, it is possible to determine whether a therapeutic agent, or a combination of agents, will be most likely to reduce the growth rate of tumors in a clinical setting.SELECTED DRAWING: None
