A METHOD FOR PREDICTING RESPONSIVENESS TO A TREATMENT WITH AN EGFR INHIBITOR

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 hsa-miR-31-3p miRNA in a sample of said patient. The invention also relates to therapeutic uses of an EGFR inhibitor in a patient predicted to respond to said EGFR inhibitor.
