Abstract: The disclosure provides a method for treating a subject afflicted with a tumor comprising administering to the subject a therapeutically effective amount of an anti-PD-1 antibody or antigen-binding portion thereof or an anti-PD-L1 antibody or anti-gen-binding portion thereof, wherein the subject is identified as having a high inflammatory gene signature score and a tumor that has a high tumor mutation burden (TMB) status. In some embodiments, the high inflammatory gene signature score is determined by measuring the expression of a panel of inflammatory genes in a tumor sample obtained from the subject, wherein the inflammatory gene panel comprises CD274 (PD-L1), CD8A, LAG3, and STAT1.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a Pim kinase inhibitor compound that can be used alone or in a pharmaceutical combination. One such combination comprises (a) a JAK inhibitor compound, (b) a Pim kinase inhibitor compound, and optionally, at least one pharmaceutically acceptable carrier for simultaneous, separate or sequential use, in particular for the treatment of a myeloid neoplasm or leukemia; a pharmaceutical composition comprising such a combination; the use of such a combination for the preparation of a medicament for the treatment of myeloid neoplasm or leukemia; a commercial package or product comprising such a combination as a combined preparation for simultaneous, separate or sequential use; and to a method of treatment of a mammal, especially a human.
