摘要:
Disclosed is a method of predicting the response of a triple-negative breast tumor to therapy with an anticancer drug, the method comprising: (a) lysing a tumor cell obtained from the triple-negative breast tumor to produce a cellular extract (b) determining the expression level of VEGFR2 in the cellular extract and (c) comparing the expression level of VEGFR2 in the cellular extract determined in step (b) to a reference expression level of VEGFR2, wherein the presence of a low level of VEGFR2 expression compared to the reference is predictive of response to therapy with the anticancer drug, wherein the anticancer drug is a combination of bevacizumab, carboplatin, and paclitaxel.
