摘要:
Methods, compositions, and kits are provided for providing a diagnosis, a prognosis, or a prediction of responsiveness to a therapy for a patient with a hematological malignancy. In practicing the subject methods, the expression level of at least one leukemia stem cell (LSC) genes in a tissue sample is assayed to obtain an LSC expression representation. The LSC expression representation is then employed to determine if an individual has a hematological malignancy, to provide a prognosis to a patient with a hematological malignancy, and/or to provide a prediction of the responsiveness of a patient with a hematological malignancy to a therapy. Also provided are screening methods for identifying novel therapies for patients with a hematological malignancy, and compositions and kits for use in these screening methods.
摘要:
Measurement of a single gene expressed by tumor cells (LMO2) and a single gene expressed by the immune microenvironment (TNFRSF9), which determination may be referred to herein as a two gene score (TGS), powerfully predicts overall survival in patients with NHL, particularly overall survival in the context of anthracycline-based chemotherapy or co-treatment with anthracycline-based chemotherapy and anti-CD20 immunotherapy. It is shown herein that increased levels of LMO2 and TNFRSF9 correlate with a positive patient response and improved prognosis.
