  • CANCER BIOMARKERS AND METHODS OF USE THEREOF
    Publication number: 20210349099
    Abstract: The present invention relates, in part, to certain cancer biomarkers and use thereof in methods for treating cancer, such as in evaluating and/or predicting patient responses to treatment with a CXCR4 inhibitor optionally in combination with a immunotherapeutic agent, in patients with a cancer such as melanoma, including resectable and unresectable melanoma. The present invention also provides a biomarker expression platform, which is a combination of a set of genes or biomarkers that are correlated with response to a CXCR4 inhibitor in a tumor as well as a normalization gene set. A method and system of using the biomarker expression platform to derive biomarker signatures of anti-tumor response and to test patient samples for predictive biomarker signatures are also disclosed.
