  • the invention relates to a method for detecting the effect of different chemotherapeutic agents and / or radiation therapy in malignant diseases, the expression profiles of tumor and / or cell growth and / or apoptosis-associated genes and / or the individual differences (mutations) in the Gene sequences can be determined. Changes in connection with chemotherapeutic agents and / or radiation therapy are identified, represented and diagnosed. Furthermore, the invention relates to a method for selecting effective therapeutic agents for the treatment of malignant diseases. The status of cell cycle genes and / or of apoptosis-associated target genes or of their gene products in body fluids, cells and / or organs is determined and their effects on corresponding therapeutic agents are evaluated diagnostically. In a preferred embodiment, Bax and p53 expression or mutations are examined, and information derived therefrom for individual-specific therapy decisions in leukemic diseases and other tumor diseases is provided.
  • the process of a malignant change in a cell begins very early, often with just a single change in the genetic material. It runs through various stages up to the degenerated cell and is not yet finished even at this stage.
  • the object of the invention was therefore to use knowledge at the molecular level for an individual-specific tumor therapy and to find an effective selection of therapeutic agents for the patients concerned in order to enable effective treatment.
  • Tumor development, tumor progression and resistance to therapy are determined by cell cycle and apoptosis regulating factors.
  • the basis of the present invention was the surprising finding that by determining their expression profile this tumor or.

  • Therapeutic agents in the sense of the invention are known agents for the therapy of leukemic or lymphoma diseases and other malignant diseases, such as e.g. tumors of the gastrointestinal tract, pancreas, prostate, gynecological tumors (such as ovaries, cervix, breast), sarcomas, brain tumors, tumors of the skin and lungs, and tumors of endocrine organs, such as the thyroid gland

Further data are e.g. B. also for these and other apoptosis and cell cycle regulators before in tumors of the gastrointestinal tracts, such as gastric carcinoma, esophageal carcinoma and sarcomas.
  • the two apoptosis-influencing proteins p53 and Bax were able to provide conclusive evidence that diagnostic characterization of corresponding tumor genes at the molecular level (DNA) and at the expression level (protein) makes it possible to selectively select cytostatics, and thus to achieve improved treatment.
  • the findings on the molecular pathogenesis and resistance to therapy of tumors can, according to the invention, be used as the basis for an individual-specific tumor therapy and in this way achieve a more targeted treatment and ultimately a maximum success for the affected patient.

  • Figure 3 shows the reduced cytostatics sensitivity of CLL cells in vitro against the alkylating agents chlorambucil and melphalan as well as against fludarabine in p53-mutated CLL patients compared to the p53 wild type.
  • the p53 mutations were determined by means of SSCP-PCR for exons 5 to 8.
  • the bar height corresponds to the dose of the cytostatic in ⁇ g / ml.

Abstract

L'invention concerne un procédé permettant de déterminer l'effet de différents agents chimiothérapeutiques et/ou d'une radiothérapie sur des affections malignes, selon lequel on définit les profils d'expression de gènes associés à des tumeurs et/ou à la croissance cellulaire et/ou à l'apoptose et/ou les différences (mutations) individuelles dans les séquences de ces gènes. Des modifications liées à l'utilisation des agents chimiothérapeutiques et/ou de la radiothérapie sont identifiées, représentées et soumises à une évaluation diagnostique. L'invention concerne en outre un procédé permettant de sélectionner des agents thérapeutiques efficaces pour le traitement d'affections malignes. L'état de gènes impliqués dans le cycle cellulaire et/ou le gène cible associé à l'apoptose ou de produits géniques de ceux-ci dans des liquides corporels, des cellules et/ou des organes est déterminé et des agents thérapeutiques correspondants sont évalués du point de vue diagnostic en ce qui concerne leur effet. Dans un mode de réalisation préféré, l'expression des gènes bax et p53 ou leurs mutations sont examinées et les informations qui en découlent sont utilisées pour la prise de décision thérapeutique concernant spécifiquement un individu souffrant d'une leucémie ou d'une autre affection maligne.
