Abstract
The invention relates to a method for developing a biomarker for the prognosis of the result of a therapeutical treatment based on data obtained in clinical studies, data remaining unchanged by therapy being subdivided into diagnostic and genomic parameters and the marker being defined by a combination of parameters. The method according to the invention is characterized by specifying the maximum number of parameters for defining the marker and thus the maximum complexity of the system from the beginning and by carrying out the search for defining parameters by sequential combination of clinical parameters (=z parameters) and/or genomic parameters (=x parameters).
