This disclosure relates to methods for detecting a level of expression of one or more genes (or proteins) in a subject having or suspected of having
cancer, and optionally treating the subject with an
adenosine pathway
antagonist, for example an
adenosine A2A
receptor (ADORA2A)
antagonist, to treat the
cancer. The genes (or proteins) include, without limitation, CD68, CD163, LBP, CCL2, CCL3, CCL7, CCL24, CCNE1, CD 14, CD300E, CD86, CD93, CLEC5A, CSF3, CXCL1, CXCL2, CXCL3, CXCL5, CXCL6, CXCL8, DFNA5, ECEL1, EPB41L3, EHF, FUT7, GALM, GBP6, GPR157, HAS1, IL1A, IE-1β, 1L23, 1L24, IL5, 1L6, 1L8, INHBA, LAP3, LAYN, LOC100505585, MRPL11, NID1, OST4, PADI2, PID1, PLAUR, PPBP, PTGS2, RHCG, SERPINB2, SLC11A1, SLC7A7, SPON1, ST6GALNAC2, TBX21, THBS1, C1R, C1S, C4BPA, CCL11, CCL20, CXCL16, CXCL2, HAMP, HSD11B1, IT GAM, LIF, SAA1, TFRC, TLR5, TNFSF14, TREM2, APP, ATG10, BCL2, CCL15, CD24, CD46, CD59,
