Provided are methods of selecting a patient with cancer and/or treating a patient with cancer that comprises a deleterious alteration in FBXW7 and/or an amplification of CCNL1 for CDK11 inhibitor and/or ATR inhibitor treatment. For example, the method of selecting a patient afflicted with a cancer likely to benefit from a CDK11 inhibitor and/or ATR inhibitor treatment, the method comprising: obtaining a biological sample; testing the sample for i) loss of function FBXW7, optionally for a deleterious mutation in F box WD-repeat containing protein (FBXW7) substrate binding domain and/or ii) upregulated CCNL1, optionally a gain or amplification of CCNL1; and selecting the patient having i) loss of function FBXW7, optionally a deleterious mutation in the FBWX7 substrate-binding domain or ii) upregulated CCNL1, optionally a gain or amplification of CCNL1, as likely to benefit and/or for treatment with the CDK11 inhibitor and/or ATR inhibitor.

The present invention provides methods for selecting a cancer patient who is AHR nuclear positive, and methods for treating cancer comprising selecting a cancer patient who is AHR nuclear positive, and administering to the patient an AHR inhibitor.

The present invention relates to a novel use of total cellular iron, preferably under the form of ferrous iron (Fe.sup.2+), as a marker of cancer stem cells (CSCs). The invention also relates to methods using said iron marker, in particular for metastatic cancer diagnosis or treatment, for screening for compounds of interest, as well as for killing CSCs.

Methods for the detection, enumeration and analysis of circulating tumor cells expressing insulin-like growth factor-1 receptors (IGF-1R) are disclosed. These methods are useful for cancer screening and staging, development of treatment regimens, and for monitoring for treatment responses, cancer recurrence or the like. Test kits that facilitate the detection, enumeration and analysis of such circulating tumor cells are also provided.

The invention provides novel personalized therapies, kits, transmittable forms of information and methods for use in treating patients having cancer, wherein the cancer is MTAP-deficient and/or MTA-accumulating and thus amenable to therapeutic treatment with a PRMT5 inhibitor. Kits, methods of screening for candidate PRMT5 inhibitors, and associated methods of treatment are also provided.

Provided herein, inter alia, are improved methods and systems of determining immunotherapy response in subjects prior and during treatment. Provided herein are methods of detecting gene expression in T cells and in monocytes as well as measuring relative abundance of particular immune cell populations and determining responsiveness to anticancer immunotherapy.

The present invention relates to the field of cancer and inflammation, and in particular methods of monitoring, diagnosis, prognosis, detecting, treating and preventing cancer and inflammation conditions. The use of composition comprises method of monitoring, diagnosis, prognosis, and detecting cancer and inflammation with EN2 and/or SATB2 expression and/or activity. The pharmaceutical composition will further comprise agents that inhibit EN2 and/or SATB2 expression or activity.

A cancer vaccine composition for human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-A*0206-positive persons, comprising a protein product of the tumor suppressor gene WT1 or a partial peptide thereof.

A set of target peptides are presented by HLA A*0101, A*0201, A*0301, B*4402, B*2705, B*1402, and B*0702 on the surface of disease cells. They are envisioned to among other things (a) stimulate an immune response to the proliferative disease, e.g., cancer, (b) to function as immunotherapeutics in adoptive T cell therapy or as a vaccine, (c) facilitate antibody recognition of tumor boundaries in surgical pathology samples, (d) act as biomarkers for early detection and/or diagnosis of the disease, and (e) act as targets in the generation antibody-like molecules which recognize the target-peptide/MHC complex.

This disclosure relates to the field of mass spectrometry analysis. In some embodiments, the disclosure relates to compositions and methods for detecting and quantifying proteins in the AKT-mTOR pathway by immunoprecipitation enrichment followed by mass spectrometry analysis.
