    摘要: The present disclosure relates to a new biomarker for predicting susceptibility to an EGFR-targeted agent and a use thereof, and more particularly, provides a biomarker for predicting susceptibility to an EGFR (Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor)-targeted agent, comprising a RON (Recepteur d'Origine Nantais) gene; a composition for predicting susceptibility to the EGFR-targeted agent, comprising an agent which measures a gene expression level of the biomarker; or an expression or activity level of a protein thereof; a composition for enhancing the susceptibility to the EGFR-targeted agent, comprising an inhibitor of the expression of the gene or the expression or activity of the protein of the gene as active ingredients; a kit for predicting the susceptibility to the EGFR-targeted agent, comprising the composition; and a method for predicting the susceptibility to the EGFR-targeted agent. According to the present disclosure, since an effect of predicting the susceptibility to the EGFR-targeted agent is excellent in a colon cancer, the present disclosure may be useful in the treatment of the colon cancer.
