[0002] Cancer subtype identifier and method for classifying tumors

[0003] The present invention relates to a cancer subtype identifier, which classifies tumors and a method based thereon. Further it relates to a method and a kit for predicting the prognosis for a subject suffering from cancer. Moreover, it relates to a method for treating a subject suffering from cancer. Further, the invention relates to the use of the cancer subtype identifier.

[0004] BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

[0005] Cancer is a group of diseases involving abnormal cell growth with the potential to invade or spread to other parts of the body. Each year a great number of humans are newly diagnosed with cancer and more than 100 different types of cancer are known. Two of the most common cancer diseases are colorectal cancer and lung cancer (e.g., non-small lung cancer). There is a great demand for methods and diagnostics that allow predicting disease progression and outcome for a cancer patient in specially in view of a certain treatment.

[0006] Clinical experience and cancer research have led to the understanding that cancer is not one disease but occurs as several different subtypes. These subtypes are distinguished by distinct patterns of gene expression that influence or determine tumor biology.

[0007] A colorectal cancer staging system based on TNM (T - primary tumor, N - regional lymph node status, M - distant metastasis) is used as the main prognostic predictor post-surgery and governs the rationale for subsequent adjuvant therapy. Despite the prognostic utility of tumor staging, the clinical outcome can vary significantly across patients within the same stage. J. Taieb et al., Cancers, 2020;12, 2679 and S. M. Qaderi et al., Int J Colorectal Dis. 2021 ;36:2399-2410 describe that fewer than 30% of patients in stage III CRC will benefit from chemotherapy and more than 30% will go on to develop distant metastases. Thus, there is an unmet need for biomarkers to address heterogeneity among existing risk strata to enable more accurate diagnoses and tailored treatment options.

[0008] To resolve the heterogeneity among the CRC patients, “Omic” approaches identified various molecular features of tumors and classified CRCs into consensus molecular subtypes (CMS) (J. Guinney et al., Nat Med. 2015;21 (1 1 ), 1350-1356). The study by I. Joanito I, et al., Nat. Genet. 2022, 54, 963-975., refines CMS by identifying 2 intrinsic epithelial subtypes. However, these intrinsic subtypes are significantly associated with conventional CMS and do not refine tumor staging. Furthermore, studies have shown that CMS stratification does not outperform TNM staging prognostically (R. V. Purcell et al., BMC Cancer, 2019, 19, 1 155).

[0009] E. Domingo et al. J Clin Oncol. 2024, 42(18), 2207-2218 discusses in situ immune cell infiltrate, which also has been associated with tumor progression. The prognostic value of a scoring method (Immunoscore) based on quantification of host CD3+and CD8+T-cell densities in the tumor and its invasive margin in stage III CRC patients has been effectively demonstrated. However, the prognostic predictive power of Immunoscore varies across different subgroups of patients. For example, Immunoscore is not effective in patients with DNA mismatch repair deficient cases thus limiting its applicability. Furthermore, Immunoscore requires standardized testing and interpretation of immune cell densities which may make Immunoscore difficult to incorporate into routine clinical practice.

[0010] Studies from R. Salazar et al. J Clin Oncol. 201 1 , 29 (1 ), 17-24 and A. Sveen et al. American Association for Cancer Research, 2012, 18(21 ), 6001 -6010 identified gene expression signatures that can refine stage II and stage III CRC patients respectively denoted as ColoPrint. From these studies, Salazar et al. cannot address the utility of ColoPrint in stage III patients as the study utilized a relatively small sample size (n=62). An inherent limitation of most gene-expression- based subtyping methods lies in their dependence on older microarray technology, which lacks the dynamic range, precision in quantification, and the unbiased detection capabilities offered by RNA sequencing. This limitation has been confirmed by a meta-analysis study, which demonstrated that signatures from various studies, including ColoGuidePro, failed to reliably predict prognosis (Z. Sztupinszki, Sci Rep., 2016, 6, 37169).

[0011] WO2024 / 218161 and Ambeskovic A. et al., Gastroenterology, 2024,167, 1358-1370, disclose a colorectal cancer subtype identifier based on percent spliced-in (PSI) values from exon skipping. It was found that a colorectal cancer subtype identifier utilizing percent spliced-in (PSI) values derived from alternative splicing events is capable of classifying consensus molecular subtypes (CMS). It has to be mentioned that the consensus molecular subtype model for predicting the prognosis of a cancer patient is not equivalent to the cancer subtype identifier based on the classification of MXE1 and MXE2 subtype.

[0012] US2023 / 0021094 relates to a biomarker composition for predicting the prognosis of a patient diagnosed with rectal cancer based on the molecular subtype model (CMS). In particular, the expression of small nuclear RNAs (e.g., RNU5A-1 , RNU5B-1 , RNU5E-1 , RNU4-1 , and RNU6ATAC) has been reported to be associated with better prognosis in general; however, in MXE2 tumors, these same RNAs are associated with worse prognosis

[0013] US2021 / 0388449 relates to method for determining an integrated, pan-cancer subtype (clustering of cluster assignments (COCA) subtype of cancer) for predicting the prognosis of a patient diagnosed with cancer. The method includes detecting the expression level of genes to classify biomarkers for categorization of tumors into one of 21 of cluster assignments (COCA) subtypes. Again, such model is not equivalent to the cancer subtype identifier based on the classification of MXE1 and MXE2 subtype.

[0014] US20140066319 relates to a method for assessing metastatic potential of breast cancer. The method is based on Epithelial-to-Mesenchymal Transition (EMT)-associated splicing pattern. The document does not show that the splicing events are associated with prognosis of patients. The subtypes MXE1 and MXE2 according to the invention are independent of CMS (consensus molecular subtypes), which includes CMS4 defined by EMT. Thus, MXE subtypes are independent of EMT.

[0015] S. Zeeshan et al., Oncogene 2025, 44, 958-967, relates to alternative splicing events associated with the subtypes of lung cancer, i.e., adenocarcinoma (LUAD) and squamous cell carcinoma (LUSC). This document does not mention any evidence for prognostic values of these events.

[0016] H. Chen et al., BMC cancer 2020, 20, 904, 1 -11 relates to a study of identification and validation of alternative splicing signature based on survival associated alternative splicing events as an independent factor for colon cancer and the alternative splicing signature does not include MXE events.

[0017] Z. Zhang et al., Genomic, 2020, 112 (6), 4032-4040 relates to a study of alternative splicing (AS) with relapse in CRC. A prognostic signature predicting relapse in CRS in stages l-lll based on alternative splicing is also constructed. It has to be mentioned that stage l-lll in CRC is not equivalent to the cancer subtype identifier based on the classification of MXE1 and MXE2 subtype.

[0018] There are several disadvantages in conventional / known subtype determination for various cancer tumors that can be addressed. Consequently, to determine new subtypes and the associated prognosis of tumors, there is an urgent need for a time and cost-effective clinical test.

[0019] Furthermore, there is considerable variability in patient outcomes within stage III colorectal cancer (CRC). This variability highlights the potential risk of overtreating some stage III patients who may not benefit from chemotherapy regimens. Therefore, there is a need for reliable biomarkers that can enable effective stratification of patients within a given stage, thus allowing matching of the most appropriate treatment option for each patient.

[0020] Therefore, it is an object of the invention to provide a method for classifying new subtypes for patients having various types of cancer, optionally colorectal cancer. It is further an object of the invention to provide a method for predicting the prognosis for a subject suffering from a cancer.

[0021] Surprisingly, it was found that a cancer subtype identifier utilizing percent spliced-in (PSI) values derived from mutually exclusive exon event, expression of small nuclear RNAs or expression of protein-coding genes is capable of classifying new subtypes for cancer diseases.

[0049] DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0050] The cancer subtype identifier as well as the method according to the invention has the following advantages:

[0051] A novel diagnostic method and a cancer identifier is presented, which utilize the patterns of PSI values based on the occurrence of at least one mutually exclusive exon usage event, the expression of small nuclear RNAs and / or the expression of protein-coding genes to predict prognosis of a cancer patient.

[0052] These distinct prognostic groups are independent of the molecular subtype model (CMS), MSI status, Epithelial-to-Mesenchymal Transition (EMT)-associated splicing pattern, clustering of cluster assignments (COCA) subtype and immune infiltrate. Additionally, these prognostic groups can be combined with conventional classification approaches and tumor staging to refine patient prognosis for stage III CRC patients.

[0053] The classification system generates new prognostic groups that are independent from traditional staging and are more predictive of patient outcomes. Furthermore, the underlying biology between these two groups is closely associated with changes in splicing and expression of spliceosomal small nuclear RNAs.

[0054] A reliable colorectal cancer identifier is presented that can enable effective stratification of patients within a given stage, thus allowing matching of the most appropriate treatment option for each patient.

[0055] The designation of the reference genome is GRCh38, annotation is Gencode v28 (primary assembly).

[0056] In the sense of the invention the term “subject” refers to any human or animal. A (non-human) animal includes all vertebrates, e.g., mammals and non-mammals, including cows, sheep, pigs, goats, horses, poultry, dogs, cats, non-human primates, rodents etc. In one embodiment, the subject is a human subject.

[0057] The terms "marker" and “biomarker” as used herein refer to

[0058] PSI value, based on the occurrence of at least one mutually exclusive usage exon event, and / or expression of small nuclear RNAs and / or expression of protein-coding genes for determining cancer subtypes, in particular the MXE1 subtype and / or MXE2 subtype.

[0059] In the sense of the invention the term “outcome” is the result of a treatment or series of treatments of a certain disease.

[0060] The outcome is determined at a point in time during or after the treatment on the basis of one criterion or a set of several criteria. Consideration of outcome helps to determine the effectiveness and appropriateness of medical interventions and to evaluate them in relation to alternatives, particularly nonintervention.

[0061] There are a number of definitions of the outcome of a disease, defined e.g., by using different endpoints. One way of determining the outcome is the "long- term" survival that refers to survival after diagnosis and / or initial treatment for a particular time period, e.g., for at least 3 years. An alternative way is the “Progression-Free Survival" (PFS) that refers to survival for a time period (usually in years) from diagnosis and / or initial treatment to cancer recurrence, metastasis or death due to recurrence of cancer. Another way is the “Recurrence-Free Survival" (RFS) that refers to survival for a time period (usually in years) from diagnosis and / or initial treatment to cancer recurrence or death due to recurrence of cancer. Another way of determining is the "Overall Survival" (OS) that refers to the time (in years) from diagnosis and / or initial treatment to death from any cause. A further way is "Disease-Free Survival" (DFS) that refers to survival for a time period (usually in years) from diagnosis and / or initial treatment to first cancer recurrence or death from any cause.

[0062] The term “prognosis prediction” used here refers to act of predicting the course of a tumor disease and the outcome of death or survival.

[0063] "Outcome analyses" often focus on changes in quality of life; the respective preventive or therapeutic measures are thus to be evaluated in a more meaningful way for future subjects than is possible with the so-called surrogate markers, parameters or endpoints (these are measurable variables that are not directly relevant for the person concerned, such as measurement and laboratory values, tumor diameter).

[0064] The term decreased progression (“good outcome”, “good prognosis”) refers to a prospect of recovery from a disease or disorder according to the invention that is associated with an extended likelihood of a positive outcome. Further, it refers to an increased subject (patient) survival and / or a delayed disease progression and / or a decreased disease recurrence and / or a decreased metastasis formation. Further, the subject (patient) is more likely to respond to therapy.

[0065] The term “increased progression” (“poor outcome”, “poor prognosis”) refers to a prospect of recovery from a disease or disorder according to the invention that is associated with a reduced survival rate, reduced survival time, higher likelihood of disease progression. Further, it refers to a decreased subject (patient) survival and / or an early disease progression and / or an increased disease recurrence and / or an increased metastasis formation. Further, the subject (patient) is less likely to respond to therapy.

[0066] Instead of surrogate parameters or an intuitive description of the case ("cured" / "not cured" or similar), a description of the overall situation should be as precisely defined as possible.

[0067] Advantageously, the cancer subtype identifier classifies tumor as MXE1 subtype and MXE2 subtype. The MXE1 subtype is associated with a good (favorable prognosis) prognosis compared to the MXE2 subtype. The MXE2 subtype is associated with a poor (unfavorable) prognosis compared to the MXE1 subtype.

[0068] The term “MXE-subtypes” relates to two groups of patients, each being characterized by a concrete mutually exclusive event, denoted as MXE, selected from mutually exclusive exon usage events (mutually exclusive splicing events) and / or expression of small nuclear RNAs and / or expression of predictive protein-coding genes.

[0069] The MXE1 subtype is characterized by i) a distinct combination of PSI values from mutually exclusive exon usage events, ii) a distinct combination of expressions of small nuclear RNAs, iii) a distinct combination of protein coding genes, a combination of i) and ii), i) and iii), ii) and iii) and i), ii) and iii), wherein MXE1 subtype is associated with a good prognosis compared to the MXE2 subtype.

[0070] The MXE2 subtype is characterized by iv) a distinct combination of PSI values from mutually exclusive exon usage events, v) a distinct combination of expressions of small nuclear RNAs, vi) a distinct combination of protein coding genes, a combination of iv) and v), iv) and vi), v) and vi) and iv), v) and vi), wherein the MXE2 subtype is associated with a poor prognosis compared to the MXE1 subtype.

[0071] With the proviso that i) is different from iv), ii) is different from v), iii) is different from vi).

[0072] According to the invention the cancer is preferably selected from the group consisting of lung cancer, breast cancer, gastric cancer, esophageal cancer, skin cancer, ovarian cancer, cervical cancer, liver cancer, bladder cancer, kidney cancer, pancreatic cancer, prostate cancer, thyroid cancer, head cancer, neck cancer, oral cancer, laryngeal cancer, rectal cancer and colon cancer. In particular, the cancer is selected from colorectal cancer and non-small cell lung cancer (lung adenocarcinoma).

[0073] In a special embodiment non-small cell lung cancer is stratified using small nuclear RNA (snRNA) expression patterns only.

[0074] Determination of the PSI value

[0075] In a first embodiment the invention is directed to a cancer subtype identifier, which classifies tumors, based on PSI values based on the occurrence of at least one mutually exclusive exon usage event. In other words, the PSI values based on the occurrence of at least one mutually exclusive exon usage event is determined.

[0076] The term “PSI”, the abbreviation of “percent spliced-in”, refers to the exon-inclusion ratio. It is a known statistic value for measuring alternative splicing events. Alternative splicing allows a gene to be transcribed into multiple isoforms (or mRNA transcripts). PSI is defined as the ratio of the relative abundance of all isoforms containing a certain exon over the relative abundance of all isoforms of the gene containing the exon. In other words, the PSI value defines how often the exon occurs in all the isoforms of the gene that contains the exon. The PSI value of an alternative splicing event reflects the intensity / frequency of such events and has been widely used in detection of differentially spliced exons.

[0077] Alternative splicing (AS) events contribute to the complexity of gene expression patterns and can be categorized into five distinct types: (1 ) exon-skipping (ES), (2) intron retention (IR), (3) alternative 5’ splice (A5SS), (4) alternative 3’ splice (A3SS) and (5) mutually exclusive exon usage (MXE) events. These events are modulated in a tissue and cell type-specific manner and introduce qualitative changes into the existing RNA pool, adding an additional layer of biological information.

[0078] According to the invention, the alternative splicing event relates to mutually exclusive exon usage (MXE) events. The term “mutually exclusive exon” (also refers to “MXE”) is characterized by splicing of exons in a coordinated manner such that two or more splicing events are not independent. Exactly one out of two exons (or one group of two exon groups) is retained, while the other one is spliced out (retention of only one of the two exons). A sample has a mixture of mRNAs where some retain exonl (excluding exon 2) and vice versa. In MXE events, if the PSI value of exonl is lower than the PSI value of exon2, this indicates that the sample has more mRNA molecules where exon2 is retained. In other words, exon2 has higher inclusion than exonl . In MXE events, if the PSI value of exon2 is lower than the PSI value of exonl , this indicates that the sample has more mRNA molecules where exonl is retained. In other words, exonl has higher inclusion than exon2.

[0085] Preferably, additionally the identification of MXE2 subtype at least one secondary mutually exclusive exon usage event is present. This secondary mutually exclusive exon usage event exhibits complementary predictive importance for MXE subtype classification, characterized by differential splicing of exons that are incorporated into different transcripts, as exonl and exon2.

[0087] If two events are mutually exclusive, then each MXE should result in two subtypes. The PSI value for each MXE event is calculated by dividing the number of reads aligning to the splice junction of exonl (out of the two neighboring exons) by the total number of reads aligning to the junctions of both exonl and exon2. For the MXE events that distinguish the subtypes, when comparing two neighboring exons that are incorporated into different transcripts, if exonl is more spliced than exon2 in MXE1 , subtype exon2 is either less spliced or shows no difference in splicing compared to exonl , respectively. Then in MXE2 subtype, exon2 is more spliced than exonl in MXE2, subtype exonl is either less spliced or shows no difference in splicing compared to exon2, respectively.

[0088] In other words, the cancer subtype identifier according to the invention, wherein for distinction of MXE1 from MXE2, the PSI value of exonl is higher than exon2 in MXE1 subtype indicating that exonl is preferentially retained over exon2. The cancer subtype identifier according to the invention, wherein for distinction of MXE1 from MXE2, the PSI value of exonl is higher than exon2 in MXE2 subtype for the exons indicating exonl is preferentially retained over exon2.

[0219] Expression of predictive protein-coding genes

[0220] A third embodiment the invention is directed to a cancer subtype identifier, which classifies tumors, based on the expression of predictive protein-coding genes. Preferably, the expression of predictive protein-coding genes shows robust predictive value for identifying the subtypes when the data is resampled multiple times. In each iteration, half of the discovery dataset is randomly resampled, and a lasso-penalized logistic regression model selects relevant genes to predict MXE subtypes. Protein-coding genes selected 90% of the time are deemed stable, with those chosen 95% of the time classified as primary, while the remaining stable genes are classified as secondary.

[0221] Preferred for the identification of the MXE1 subtype, is the expression of the predictive proteincoding genes, which is characterized by their up-regulation in the MXE1 subtype as compared to the MXE2 subtype.

[0279] The ranking as primary and secondary events is performed via stability scores (max 1 , min 0.9) indicating consistent and robust predictive value for identification of MXE subtypes. Primary events have stability scores >= 0.95 and secondary events have stability scores < 0.95.

[0280] The invention also relates to a method for predicting a prognosis for a subject suffering from cancer the method comprising using a cancer subtype identifier based on PSI values based on an occurrence of at least one mutually exclusive exon usage event, and / or expression of small nuclear RNAs and / or expression of protein-coding genes comprising the steps: a) collecting a sample from a tumor and / or body fluid and / or body excretion of a subject; b) determining at least one of the PSI values based on the occurrence of at least one mutually exclusive exon usage event, deregulation of the expression of small nuclear RNAs, expression of subtype predictive protein-coding genes, combinations thereof; and c) conversion of values of step b) into a rating scale to indicate the disease prognosis.

[0281] In step a) a sample from a tumor in a subject having cancer is collected. Step a) is non- therapeutic.

[0282] Suitable samples contain tissues or cells from the tumor of a subject having a cancer of epithelial cell origin. The sample preferably comprises a biopsy sample, such as a tumor biopsy, a primary tissue, a metastatic tissue. In particular, the specimen can be obtained by needle biopsy, image- guided biopsy, surgical (excisional) biopsy, shave / punch biopsy, endoscopic biopsy, laparoscopic biopsy and combinations thereof.

[0283] In a first embodiment, in step b) of the method according to the invention the PSI values based on the occurrence of at least one mutually exclusive exon usage event, and / or deregulation of the expression of small nuclear RNAs and / or expression of subtype predictive protein-coding genes is determined.

[0284] The PSI value represents the percentage of exon inclusion and is calculated / determined by dividing the number of reads from the upstream and downstream splice junctions of the alternative exon and / or from the alternative exon itself (referred to as inclusion reads) by the total number of reads from all splice junctions within the splice site, including the reads derived from the splice junction that connects the exon upstream of the alternative exon to the exon downstream of the alternative exon (referred as skipping reads) and inclusion reads. The effective length for the isoform is used for normalization of inclusion and skipping reads which is a mathematical transformation of sequencing read length and exon length.

[0285] PSI values, for example, can be estimated from RNA-Seq data using computational tools such as rMATS-turbo (see e.g, github.com / Xinglab / rmats-turbo) or MISO (miso.readthedocs.io / en / fastmiso / ).

[0286] In a second embodiment, in step b) of the method according to the invention the expression of small nuclear RNAs is determined by molecular methods including but not limited to RNA sequencing in a targeted or non-targeted way, using primers, probes and antisense nucleotides designed to specific RNA or DNA sequences to detect and quantify gene expression through amplification or hybridization assays.

[0287] In a second embodiment, in step b) of the method according to the invention the expression of predictive protein-coding genes is determined by molecular methods including but not limited to RNA sequencing in a targeted or non-targeted way, using primers, probes and antisense nucleotides designed to specific RNA or DNA sequences to detect and quantify gene expression through amplification or hybridization assays. In the context of protein-coding genes, “expression” may also include translation and protein expression can be quantified specific antibodies against marker proteins.

[0288] In step c) the values of step b) are converted into a rating scale indicating the disease prognosis.

[0289] Preferably, in step c) according to the invention the conversion of PSI values to indicate the disease prognosis classifies the tumors as MXE1 subtype or MXE2 subtype.

[0290] Preferably, in step c) according to the invention the conversion of expression values of small nuclear RNAs to indicate the disease prognosis classifies the tumors as MXE1 subtype or MXE2 subtype.

[0291] Preferably, in step c) according to the invention the conversion of expression values of predictive protein-coding genes to indicate the disease prognosis by classifying tumors as MXE1 subtype or MXE2 subtype.

[0292] Preferably, the values of the conversion of PSI, expression of snRNAs and / or expression of protein-coding genes indicate the disease prognosis and is used to decide whether the subject is subjected to a treatment by anti-tumor therapy and / or surveillance of progress of the disease.

[0293] There are several ways to convert the PSI values, expression of snRNAs and / or expression of protein-coding genes to indicate the disease prognosis.

[0294] One option is that the calculated PSI values, expression of snRNAs and / or expression of proteincoding genes are converted to MXE probabilities by mathematical transformation. Preferably, the calculated PSI values, expression of snRNAs and / or expression of protein-coding genes are converted to MXE probabilities estimates by mathematical transformation of the dot product between PSI values and their respective weights derived from the reference data set as follows:

[0295] F denotes the vector representations for PSI values and / or variance stabilized gene expression values for deregulated snRNAs or subtype-predictive protein coding genes of a new sample. 0 indicates the weights associated with F in regard to the MXE subtypes, as estimated from logistic regression models trained on the reference data set. z is the linear combination of the PSI values or variance stabilized gene expression values for deregulated snRNAs and / or subtype-predictive protein coding genes and their corresponding weights and p0is the intercept derived from the reference data set for each MXE subtype: z is converted into a probability for each MXE subtype using the logistic function where e is a mathematical constant (~ 2.718):

[0296] Another possible approach involves measuring the distance between a sample's PSI value and / or variance stabilized gene expression values for deregulated snRNAs and / or subtype-predictive protein coding genes and the median PSI or variance stabilized gene expression values for deregulated snRNAs and / or subtype-predictive protein coding genes for each MXE subtype in the reference dataset. By ranking these distances, the MXE with the lowest distance can be assigned to the sample. For n number of features, the MXE can be assigned as follows:

[0297] MXE — min ^dMXE1,dMXE2")

[0298] Alternatively, Pearson correlation between the features of the test sample and the feature centroids from the reference dataset can be used instead of a distance metric.

[0299] A further approach involves selecting pairs of PSI values and / or expression values from deregulated snRNAs or subtype-predictive protein coding genes whose values and / or expression levels switch ranking consistently between the two prognostic groups by using “top scoring pairs” (TSP) algorithm. The relationship can be converted to binary vectors for supervised model-based classification.

[0300] Advantageously, in the methods of the present invention it is possible to establish a rating scale by using at least one of the PSI values based on the occurrence of at least one mutually exclusive exon usage event, the expression of small nuclear RNAs the expression of proteincoding genes, combinations thereof. Advantageously, this rating scale can be used to decide whether the subject is likely to experience an increased progression of the disease. In particular, the PSI values based on the occurrence of at least one mutually exclusive exon usage event, and / or the expression of small nuclear RNAs and / or the expression of protein-coding genes can be used to classify the tumors as MXE1 subtype or MXE2 subtype. Further, it can be decided whether a subject should be subjected to a treatment by anti tumor therapy and / or surveillance of progress of the disease. This method allows a decision at a very early stage of the disease, where markers used in state of the art staging protocols (like e.g. the occurrence of other tumor markers or metastases), usually are not yet detectible.

[0301] MXE1 and MXE2 subtypes are independent of CMS and tumor staging and can be combined with conventional clinical classifications to refine them.

[0302] In another preferred embodiment, the conversion of values of step b) to indicate the disease prognosis is combined with tumor classification subtypes other than MXE1 subtype and MXE2 subtype. It is preferably combined with at least one tumor classification subtypes selected from CMS and immune infiltrate.

[0303] The consensus molecular subtype (CMS) classification system divides colon cancers into 4 distinct groups, called subtypes, each with distinct biological and molecular characteristics: CMS1 , CMS2, CMS3 and CMS4. Gene expression profiles from tumors have been used to establish the subgroups. CMS1 (MSI Immune) tumors have microsatellite instability and are heavily infiltrated with immune cells. CMS2 (Canonical) is an epithelial subtype with significant upregulation of WNT and MYC downstream targets, and chromosomal instability (CIN) is a distinguishing feature of this subtype. CMS3 (Metabolic), like CMS2, has epithelial characteristics but exhibits less CIN. In addition, the CMS3 subtype is enriched for KRAS mutations and shows de-regulation of genes involved in metabolism. CMS4 (Mesenchymal) is a mesenchymal subtype and exhibits activation of pathways that regulate epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) and sternness.

[0304] Immune cell infiltrate has been associated with tumor progression. Immune cells that infiltrated the tumor center correlated with clinicopathological characteristics and prognosis. The immune risk scores were an independent prognostic indicator and were found to predict cervical cancer prognosis as well as the effects of chemoradiotherapy. Immune cells that migrate from the blood into the tumor, e.g., T-cells, B-cells, natural killer (NK) cells, or macrophages, are defined as tumor-infiltrating immune cells. The density patterns of different immune cell markers (namely CD3, CD4, CD8, CD20, CD57, CD68, and CD163) may be used as classification system to predict the prognosis of patients having cancer.

[0305] Another embodiment of the invention is a method for treating a subject suffering from cancer the method comprising using a cancer subtype identifier based on PSI values based on an occurrence of at least one mutually exclusive exon event, and / or the deregulation of expression of small nuclear RNAs and / or deregulation of expression of subtype predictive protein-coding genes comprising the steps: a’) collecting a sample from a tumor and / or body fluid and / or body excretion of a subject; b’) determining at least one of the PSI values based on the occurrence of at least one mutually exclusive exon usage event, the deregulation of the expression of small nuclear RNAs, expression of subtype predictive protein-coding genes, combinations thereof; c’) conversion of the values of step b) into a rating scale to indicate the disease prognosis by classifying the tumors as MXE1 subtype or MXE2 subtype; and d’) subjecting the subject to an anti tumor treatment if the rating scale indicates that the subject is likely to experience increased progression of the disease.

[0306] Advantageously, in the method of the present invention it is possible to establish a rating scale by using the PSI values based on the occurrence of at least one mutually exclusive exon usage event, and / or the expression of small nuclear RNAs and / or the expression of protein-coding genes. Advantageously, this rating scale can be used to decide, whether the subject is likely to experience an increased progression of the disease. In particular, the PSI values based on the occurrence of at least one mutually exclusive exon usage event, and / or the expression of small nuclear RNAs and / or the expression of protein-coding genes can be used to classify the tumors as MXE1 subtype or MXE2 subtype. Further, it can be decided whether a subject should be subjected to a treatment by anti tumor therapy and / or surveillance of progress of the disease.

[0307] This method allows a decision at a very early stage of the disease, where markers used in state of the art staging protocols (like e.g. the occurrence of other tumor markers or metastases), usually are not yet detectible.

[0308] There is a great variety of anti tumor therapies that are well known to a person skilled in the art. Based on specific factors like nature of the cancer, the stage of disease etc. the skilled person can decide which therapy is appropriate for treatment of a subject in need of an anti tumor therapy e.g. surgery, radiotherapy and / or chemotherapy.

[0309] A further embodiment of the invention relates to a kit for predicting the prognosis for a subject suffering from colorectal cancer using at least one of PSI values based on an occurrence of at least one mutually exclusive exon usage event, deregulation of the expression of small nuclear RNAs, expression of subtype predictive protein-coding genes, combinations thereof comprising a composition for determining the PSI value, the expression of small nuclear RNAs and the expression protein-coding genes.

[0310] Furthermore, the kit may comprise reagents and / or devices for preparing a sample such as collecting a tissue and / or excising a sample from the tissue; for spotting test samples on a suitable surface, such as nitrocellulose strips or glass slides; for performing immuno-quantitation such as labeled antibodies, or reagents for labeling antibodies; instructions for performing a method of the invention; etc.

[0311] The components of the kit may, optionally, be packaged in one or more containers.

[0312] Optionally, the kit according to the invention comprises suitable buffers; one or more containers or packaging material; and / or instructions for performing the method. The reagents of the kit may be in containers in which the reagents are stable, e.g. in lyophilized form or stabilized liquids. The reagents may also be in single use form, e.g., in single dosage form.

[0313] Another embodiment of the invention is the use of at least one of PSI values based on the occurrence of at least one mutually exclusive exon usage event, the expression of small nuclear RNAs, the expression of predictive protein-coding genes, combination thereof as a marker of the prognosis for a subject suffering from cancer.
