Abstract: This invention provides methods and compositions for detecting somatic mutations in cancer cells. The methods can be used for measuring tumor mutation burden. Provided are methods for identifying and treating subjects who benefit from treatment with anticancer agents such as immune checkpoint inhibitors, methods for treating cancer in a subject, and methods for monitoring and prognosing a subject having cancer.

Abstract: This document provides methods and materials involved in assessing samples (e.g., cancer cells) for the presence of a loss of heterozygosity (LOH) signature. For example, methods and materials for determining whether or not a cell (e.g., a cancer cell) contains an LOH signature are provided. Materials and methods for identifying cells (e.g., cancer cells) having a deficiency in homology directed repair (HDR) as well as materials and methods for identifying cancer patients likely to respond to a particular cancer treatment regimen also are provided.

Abstract: Provided herein are methods for predicting chemotherapy benefit. The invention predicts chemotherapy benefit based on the expression analysis of biomarkers, e.g., RNA biomarker transcription analysis, taken from a tumor sample. The biomarker expression data can be combined with clinical variables, e.g., tumor size and nodal status, to generate a profile that predicts the benefit of including chemotherapy as a treatment decision.

Abstract: Provided herein are methods for assessing response to inflammatory disease therapy. The methods include performing immunoassays to generate scores based on quantitative data for expression of biomarkers relating to inflammatory biomarkers to assess disease activity in inflammatory diseases, e.g., rheumatoid arthritis. Also provided are methods of adjusting disease activity scores to account for variables that can influence such scores.
