    Abstract: Methods of predicting or detecting sensitivity to therapeutic effects of anti-PD-1 therapy in a patient suffering from melanoma, as well as for selecting somatic mutanomes and transcriptomes of melanoma biopsies. A tumor sample obtained from the patient is assayed for a measure of anti-PD-1 therapy sensitivity via, for example, whole transcriptome sequencing, antibody based protein quantifications, mass spectrometry based protein quantification, targeted mRNA sequencing, real-time RT-PCR, Sanger sequencing, targeted sequencing and/or whole exome/genome sequencing. Samples are selected that exhibit a higher first enrichment similarity score and/or a lower second enrichment similarity score, and/or at least one measure of sensitivity. A patient whose sample was selected herein as a candidate for anti-PD-1 therapy is thereby identified. The method of the invention can further comprise treating the patient with anti-PD-1 therapy, optionally in conjunction with combinatorial therapy.

    Abstract: A method of analyzing a biological sample from a subject that has a tumor or cancer, comprising: determining, for target cells having a phenotype of interest spatial resolution of the target cells, density of the spatially resolved target cells in the sample; and proximity between spatially resolved target cells of interest in the sample; and determining an overall score based at least in part on the preceding parameters. A method for identifying a patient as a responder to single agent anti-PD-1 or anti-PD-L1 therapy is provided. Similar methods are provided for detecting adaptive immune resistance, the presence of cancer in a patient sample, determining efficacy of cancer therapy, and determining response to and monitoring the efficacy of cancer therapy.

    Abstract: Methods for treating a wound are provided herein. Such methods include a step of contacting the wound with an effective amount of a BRAF inhibitor. In some aspects, BRAF inhibitors may be part of a pharmaceutical composition. In such case, the pharmaceutical composition may include an effective amount of a BRAF inhibitor and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier. In certain aspects, the pharmaceutical composition is a topical agent comprising an ointment, cream liquid, gel, hydrogel, or a spray. Further, in some embodiments, a BRAF inhibitor or a pharmaceutical composition thereof may be part of wound dressing for use in treating a wound. In this case, the wound dressing may be impregnated or coated with the BRAF inhibitor or pharmaceutical composition thereof.
