  • Publication number: 20120004119
    Abstract: A method of predicting an efficacy of an oncolytic virus treatment for a tumor comprises calculating a single-gene predictor score for each of a plurality of genes; calculating a predictor score from the sum of the single-gene predictor scores for the plurality of genes; and predicting, if the predictor score is greater than a predictor score threshold, that the treatment would have efficacy, and if the predictor score is less than a predictor score threshold, that the treatment would lack efficacy. Also, methods of predicting an efficacy of a treatment for a tumor comprise identifying the type and subtype of the tumor, wherein the efficacy of the treatment for the type and subtype of the tumor is known.
