METHODS OF TREATING CANCER PATIENTS WITH FARNESYL TRANSFERASE INHIBITORS

摘要

The present invention relates to the field of molecular biology and cancer biology. Specifically, the present invention relates to methods of treating a subject with a farnesyltransferase inhibitor (FTI) that include determining whether the subject is likely to be responsive to the FTI treatment based on genotyping and expression profiling of certain immunological genes and RAS mutation status in the subject.
