Abstract: Described herein are methods of using biomarker levels to detect proteins in a biological sample obtained from a patient with ovarian cancer, calculate a quantitative score for a patient with ovarian cancer, and predict a likelihood of a clinical outcome in a patient with ovarian cancer. The methods involve determining a level of at least three proteins in the biological sample obtained from the patient wherein the at least three proteins are selected from ANG-2, HE4, PROSTASIN, EGFR and IL-8, calculating a quantitative score for the patient by weighting the level of the at least three proteins by their contribution to a clinical outcome, and/or predicting a likelihood of a clinical outcome for the patient based on the quantitative score.

Abstract: Provided herein are methods for predicting a likelihood of responsiveness to treatment with a folate receptor alpha (FRA)-targeting agent in a patient having a FRA-expressing lung cancer. Also provided are methods for treating a FRA-expressing lung cancer in a patient with a FRA-targeting agent. The methods involve quantifying or determining the patient's FRA expression level in a biological sample and comparing the patient's FRA expression level to a reference standard used to quantify FRA expression level, wherein the patient is likely to respond to treatment with the FRA-targeting agent if the patient's FRA expression level equals or exceeds the reference FRA expression level. Further provided are related kits for prediction of response and treatment of the identified population of FRA-expressing lung cancer patients.
