| 摘要 |
The present invention relates to a method for predicting whether a patient with a cancer is likely to respond to an epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) inhibitor, which method comprises determining the expression level of at least one target gene of hsa-miR-31-3p (SEQ ID NO:1) miRNA in a sample of said patient, wherein said target gene of hsa-miR-31-3p is selected from DBNDD2 and EPB41 L4B. The invention also relates to kits for measuring the expression of DBNDD2 and/or EPB41 L4B and at least one other parameter positively or negatively correlated to response to EGFR inhibitors. The invention also relates to therapeutic uses of an EGFR inhibitor in a patient predicted to respond to said EGFR inhibitor. |
