摘要:
The invention is concerned with a method of determining whether a patient is more suitably treated by a therapy with an angiogenesis inhibitor, such as bevacizumab, by determining the genotype of VEGF promoter gene and/or VEGFR2 gene. The invention further relates to a pharmaceutical composition comprising an angiogenesis inhibitor, such as bevacizumab, for the treatment of a patient suffering from cancer based on the genotype of VEGF promoter gene and/or VEGFR2 gene. The invention further relates to a method for improving the treatment effect of chemotherapy of a patient suffering from cancer by adding an angiogenesis inhibitor, such as bevacizumab, based on the genotype of VEGF promoter gene and/or VEGFR2 gene.
