摘要:
Methods are provided for determining or otherwise assessing the response of a patient to treatment, in particular, to cancer treatment. The methods include the analysis of samples for the presence or the absence of HER2 markers alone or in conjunction with other biomarkers, such as HER3 markers. In certain examples, the probable time to progression can be determined by first determining HER2 positive patients and then further stratifying by using the presence or the absence of a second biomarker (e.g, HER3 markers). In addition, the data can be used to track a patient's response to a treatment regimen, assessing the expected success of treating a patient using a particular regiment, determining the effects of a treatment regiment or for categorizing a patient in order to create a homogenous group for a clinical trial.

The invention provides methods of measuring and/or quantifying the presence and/or amount of Her-3 and/or Her-3 in a complex in a sample. The invention also provides antibodies specific for Her-3.

The present invention relates generally to methods of accurately quantifying HER2 and/or p95 expression in subjects with a HER2 positive cancer and indicating the risk of brain relapse in such patients.
摘要:
In certain aspects, the present invention provides methods for determining whether a Her-2 positive cancer is likely to respond to treatment with a Her2-acting agent and/or whether a patient with a Her-2 positive cancer is likely to have a slow disease progression. In other aspects, the present invention is drawn to methods for determining whether a subject with a Her-2 positive cancer is unlikely to respond to treatment with at least one chemotherapeutic agent in addition to a Her2-acting agent and/or whether a patient with a Her-2 positive cancer is likely to have a fast disease progression.

摘要:
Methods, compositions and kits are provided for assessing angiogenesis through sensitive, direct detection of activation of endothelial cells at molecular levels. In general, activation of endothelial cells is detected by measuring the levels of cellular components and their protein complexes participating in a specific angiogenesis signaling pathway in endothelial cells. The methods can be used for assessing status of diseases associated with undesirable angiogenesis, such as the likelihood of developing the disease, presence or absence of the disease, prognosis of the disease and the likelihood of response or resistance to a particular anti-angiogenic therapy. The methods can also be used to guide the design of effective therapeutic regimens targeting a specific angiogenic signaling pathway, as well as in conjunction with therapeutic intervention of diseases or conditions associated with undesirable angiogenesis.
