Abstract

Described herein are assays, methods and kits for analyzing sensitivity of a subject's cancerous tumor to a drug, predicting responses of cancerous tumors to drugs, determining the prognosis of a subject having a cancerous tumor, and developing a personalized therapy or treatment strategy for the subject. The assays, methods and kits involve analyzing gene and protein expression signatures or profiles of a subject's cancerous tumor, testing candidate drugs in cancerous cells from the subject's cancerous tumor, and classifying a subject's cancerous tumor based on ovarian cell and fallopian tube cell cell-of-origin gene expression signatures. Using these methods, a suitable drug (or drugs) is identified, the subject can be treated with that drug, and a personalized therapy can be developed for the subject.
