METHOD FOR ESTABLISHING AND PREDICTING RESISTANCE OR RESPONSIVENESS TO CHEMOTHERAPY USING PROTEIN PROFILE

摘要

The present invention is directed to a method to predict responsiveness or resistance to chemotherapy in breast cancer comprising providing an optionally processed sample from a breast cancer patient as a test sample, wherein the sample comprise peptides proteins and/or genes; determining the amount of individual peptides, proteins and/or genes in the sample comparing the amount of an individual peptide and/or protein or the presence of a gene present in the test sample with the amount of a corresponding peptide or protein in a reference sample, wherein the individual peptide or protein in the test sample is selected from the group consisting SEQ ID 1-73 or proteins identified in table 3 and 4 or genes encoding for the peptides or proteins.
