  • Publication number: 20220403474
    Abstract: Provided herein are methods of determining tumoral sensitivity to hormonal (endocrine) therapy based upon an index of estrogen receptor (ER)- and progesterone receptor (PR)-related genes, referred to as the sensitivity to endocrine therapy index (SETER/PR index), and may have additional consideration for the proportion of ER gene (ESR1) RNA transcripts that contain a mutation relative to the value of the SETER/PR index. Further provided are methods of treating breast cancer patients determined to be sensitive to an endocrine therapy by the SETER/PR index.

  • Publication number: 20220162705
    Abstract: The present invention relates to methods, kits, systems and uses thereof for prediction of the response or resistance to and/or benefit from a cancer immunotherapy of a subject suffering from or being at risk of developing a neoplastic disease, in particular breast cancer, based on the measurement(s) of expression level(s) of at least one marker in samples of said subject. Equally, the present invention relates to methods, kits, systems and uses thereof for predicting the outcome from the cancer immunotherapy treatment in said subject based on the measurement(s) of the expression level(s) of the at least one marker in samples of said subject. Further, the present invention relates to the cancer immunotherapy for use in the treatment of the neoplastic disease, in particular breast cancer, in the subject and to methods for cancer immunotherapy treatment by using the cancer immunotherapy according to the methods of the present invention.
