The present disclosure relates, in one of its aspects, to a method for determining whether a mammalian subject having a bladder cancer belongs to a first or a second group, wherein the prognosis of subjects of the first group is better than the prognosis of subjects of the second group. The method comprises the steps of: a) evaluating an amount of RBM3 in at least part of a sample earlier obtained from the subject and determining a sample value corresponding to the evaluated amount; b) comparing said sample value with a predetermined reference value; and if said sample value is higher than said reference value, c1) concluding that the subject belongs to the first group; and if said sample value is lower than or equal to said reference value, c2) concluding that the subject belongs to the second group.

RBM3 in bladder cancer

The present invention provides means, such as a method, for determining whether a mammalian subject having a colorectal cancer belongs to a first or a second group, wherein the prognosis of subjects of the first group is better than the prognosis of subjects of the second group. The method comprises the steps of: evaluating an amount of RBM3 protein or RBM3 mRNA molecule in at least part of a sample earlier obtained from the subject and determining a sample value corresponding to the evaluated amount; comparing said sample value with a predetermined reference value; and if said sample value is higher than said reference value, concluding that the subject belongs to the first group; and if said sample value is lower than or equal to said reference value, concluding that the subject belongs to the second group.

There is provided a method for determining whether a mammalian subject having a bladder cancer belongs to a first or a second group, wherein the prognosis of subjects of the second group is worse than the prognosis of subjects of the first group, comprising the steps of: a) evaluating an amount of PODXL in at least part of a sample earlier obtained from the subject and determining a sample value corresponding to the evaluated amount; b) comparing said sample value with a predetermined reference value; and if said sample value is higher than said reference value, c1) concluding that the subject belongs to the second group; and if said sample value is lower than or equal to said reference value, c2) concluding that the subject belongs to the first group.

PODXL in bladder cancer

The present disclosure provides a method for determining whether a mammalian subject having a colorectal cancer belongs to a first or a second group, wherein the prognosis of subjects of the first group is better than the prognosis of subjects of the second group, comprising the steps of: a) evaluating an amount of PODXL protein in at least part of a sample earlier obtained from the subject, and determining a sample value corresponding to the evaluated amount; b) comparing said sample value from step a) with a predetermined reference value; and if said sample value is higher than said reference value, c1) concluding that the subject belongs to said second group; and if said sample value is lower than or equal to said reference value, c2) concluding that the subject belongs to said first group. Related uses, means and a method of treatment are also provided.

PODXL protein in colorectal cancer

The present invention provides a method for determining whether a mammalian subject having a breast cancer is likely to benefit from an endocrine treatment, comprising the steps of: providing a sample earlier obtained from said subject; evaluating the amount of HMGCR protein or HMGCR mRNA present in at least part of said sample, and determining a sample value corresponding to said amount; comparing the sample value obtained in step b) with a reference value; and, if said sample value is higher than said reference value, concluding that the subject is likely to benefit from an endocrine treatment. Further, a corresponding method of treatment is provided as well as further methods uses and means which may be employed in connection with breast cancer treatment or treatment prediction.

Treatment prediction involving HMGCR

Method for determining whether a mammalian subject having a cancer belongs to a first or a second group, wherein subjects of the first group are more likely to respond to a platinum-based therapy than subjects of the second group, comprising the steps of: evaluating the amount of RBM3 protein or RBM3 mRNA present in at least part of a sample earlier obtained from said subject, and determining a sample value corresponding to said amount; comparing the sample value with a reference value; and, if said sample value is higher than said reference value, concluding that said subject belongs to a first group; and if said sample value is lower than or equal to said reference value, concluding that said subject belongs to a second group. There is further provided means useful in the establishment of a treatment prediction.

RBM3 in colorectal cancer prognostics

A method for determining whether a mammalian subject having a malignant melanoma belongs to a first or a second group, wherein the prognosis of subjects of the first group is better than the prognosis of subjects of the second group is provided. The method comprises the steps of: evaluating an amount of RBM3 protein in at least part of a sample earlier obtained from the subject and determining a sample value corresponding to the evaluated amount; comparing said sample value with a predetermined reference value; and if said sample value is higher than said reference value, concluding that the subject belongs to the first group; and if said sample value is lower than or equal to said reference value, concluding that the subject belongs to the second group.

RBM3 as a marker for malignant melanoma prognosis

The present invention relates to an affinity ligand capable of selective interaction with an epitope sequence consisting of 47 amino acids or less and comprising the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO:1 and/or SEQ ID NO:2. Further, it relates to a polypeptide consisting of the epitope sequence and to uses of the affinity ligand and the polypeptide.
