摘要
Particular embodiments provide novel and clinically useful DNA methylation predictors of hormone receptor status, and predictors of response to endocrine (e.g., hormonal) and non-endocrine breast cancer therapy. The ESR1 gene, encoding the estrogen receptor (ER) alpha proved to be the preferred predictor of progesterone receptor (PR) status, while methylation of the PGR gene, encoding PR, was the preferred predictor of ER status. ESR1 methylation outperformed hormone receptor status as a predictor of clinical response in patients treated with antiestroges (e.g., tamoxifen), while promoter methylation of the CYP1B1 gene, encoding a tamoxifen and estradiol metabolizing cytochrome P450, predicted response differentially in tamoxifen-treated and non-treated patients. High levels of promoter methylation of the ARH1 gene, encoding a RAS-related small G-protein, were shown to be preferred predictors of better survival in patients who had not received tamoxifen therapy.
