Embodiment

[0099] In an analysis involving more than 200 clinical samples (n=221), the combination of WBP2 and HER2 was found to be more powerful than WBP2 or HER2 alone in predicting poorer overall survival and disease-free survival (see Table 3 and figure 1 ). Reference only measures HER2-positive and HER2-negative ( figure 1 C and 1D) and measure the stratification of HER2-negative patients with low WBP2 levels, HER2-negative patients with high WBP2 levels, HER2-positive patients with low WBP2 levels, and HER2-positive patients with high WBP2 levels, see The difference is bigger. For example, with reference to HER2-negative patients with low WBP2 levels, the odds of overall survival in HER2-positive patients with high WBP2 levels were about 4.5-fold lower, and in HER2-positive patients with low WBP2 levels, the odds of overall survival were about 1.7-fold lower; and HER2-positive patients had an approximately 2.6-fold higher chance of relapse, while HER2-positive patients with low W...

Abstract

The present invention provides a method for prognosing overall survival, cancer recurrence, or treatment response in a cancer patient, the method comprising: (a) examining a sample from the patient to determine that the patient is human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) positive or negative; and (b) measuring WW domain binding protein 2 (WBP2) levels in said patient sample, wherein the results in step (a) and the results in step (b) provide the patient with overall survival, cancer Prognosis of relapse or response to treatment. The invention also provides kits for carrying out the methods of the invention.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to methods, systems and kits for the prognosis of cancer, especially breast cancer. The present invention also relates to the stratification of patient populations for cancer treatment, particularly breast cancer treatment. The present application also relates to the identification of cancer markers in methods, systems and kits for the prognosis of cancer, especially breast cancer. Background technique [0002] The following discussion of the background to the invention is intended to facilitate an understanding of the invention. It should be understood, however, that the discussion is not an acknowledgment or admission that any of the material referred to was published, known or part of the common general knowledge in any jurisdiction as at the priority date of the application. [0003] Breast cancer is the second most common type of cancer worldwide and one of the most common causes of cancer death in humans. The dise...
