TLE3 as a marker for chemotherapy
View Patent ↗Methods of using TLE3 as a marker for predicting the likelihood that a patient's cancer will respond to chemotherapy. Methods of using TLE3 as a marker for selecting a chemotherapy for a cancer.
1. A method of treating breast, lung or ovarian cancer in a patient comprising administering to the patient in need thereof a taxane, wherein the patient's cancer has been previously identified to express TLE3 polypeptide.
2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the patient's cancer is breast cancer.
3. The method of claim 2 , wherein the patient is triple negative for estrogen receptor, progesterone receptor, and HER-2 markers.
4. The method of claim 2 , wherein the taxane is paclitaxel.
5. The method of claim 2 , wherein the taxane is docetaxel.
6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the patient's cancer is lung cancer.
7. The method of claim 6 , wherein the taxane is paclitaxel.
8. The method of claim 6 , wherein the taxane is docetaxel.
9. The method of claim 1 , wherein the patient's cancer is ovarian cancer.
10. The method of claim 9 , wherein the taxane is paclitaxel.
11. The method of claim 9 , wherein the taxane is docetaxel.
12. A method of treating breast, lung, or ovarian cancer in a patient, wherein the cancer has been identified as positive for TLE3 polypeptide expression, the method comprising administering a taxane to the patient.
13. The method of claim 12 , wherein the cancer is breast cancer.
14. The method of claim 13 , wherein the patient is triple negative for estrogen receptor, progesterone receptor, and HER-2 markers.
15. The method of claim 13 , wherein the taxane is paclitaxel.
16. The method of claim 13 , wherein the taxane is docetaxel.
17. The method of claim 12 , wherein the cancer is lung cancer.
18. The method of claim 17 , wherein the taxane is paclitaxel.
19. The method of claim 17 , wherein the taxane is docetaxel.
20. The method of claim 12 , wherein the cancer is ovarian cancer.
21. The method of claim 20 , wherein the taxane is paclitaxel.
22. The method of claim 20 , wherein the taxane is docetaxel.
23. A method of treating breast cancer in a patient, wherein the patient is triple negative for estrogen receptor, progesterone receptor, and HER-2 markers and the cancer has been identified as positive for TLE3 polypeptide expression, the method comprising administering a taxane to the patient.
24. The method of claim 23 , wherein the taxane is paclitaxel.
25. The method of claim 23 , wherein the taxane is docetaxel.
26. A method of treating lung or ovarian cancer in a patient, wherein the cancer has been identified as positive for TLE3 polypeptide expression, the method comprising administering a taxane to the patient.
27. The method of claim 26 , wherein the taxane is paclitaxel.
28. The method of claim 26 , wherein the taxane is docetaxel.
29. The method of claim 26 , wherein the cancer is lung cancer.
30. The method of claim 26 , wherein the cancer is ovarian cancer.
