Abstract:
The present invention relates to methods for predicting the probability of a treatment response of a human cancer patient to an immune checkpoint blocker treatment e.g. with anti PD-1, and to methods for predicting the probability of survival of a human cancer patient following an immune checkpoint blocker treatment, and to apparatuses and kits which can be used in these methods.
