Description
Case 30616
Method for predicting risk of hypertension ated with anti-angiogenesis therapy
Field of the Invention
The present invention is directed to methods of predicting the risk of hypertension in patients
undergoing anti-angiogenesis therapy, including a therapy with bevacizumab.
ound of the Invention
Angiogenesis contributes to benign and malignant diseases such as cancer development and,
ally in cancer, is ary for primary tumor growth, invasiveness and metastasis. In
order to grow, a tumor must undergo an angiogenic switch. Vascular endothelial growth factor
(VEGF) is required to induce this enic switch. VEGF and the genes in the VEGF pathway
are considered important mediators of cancer progression. The VEGF gene family includes the
VEGF gene, also ed to as VEGFA, homologues to VEGF including, placenta growth factor
(PlGF), VEGFB, VEGFC, VEGFD, the VEGF ors, ing 1 and VEGFR-2
(also referred to as FLT1 and FLK1/KDR, respectively), the VEGF inducers, including hypoxiainducible
factors HIF1α, HIF2 α, and the oxygen sensors PHD1, PHD2 and PHD3.
The importance of this pathway in cancer cell growth and metastasis has led to the development
of anti-angiogenesis agents for use in cancer therapy. These therapies include, among others,
bevacizumab, pegaptanib, sunitinib, sorafenib and vatalanib. Despite significantly prolonged
al obtained with angiogenesis inhibitors, such as bevacizumab, patients still succumb to
cancer. Further, not all patients respond to angiogenesis inhibitor y. The mechanism
underlying the non-responsiveness remains unknown. Moreover, angiogenesis inhibitor therapy
is associated with side effects, such as gastrointestinal perforation, thrombosis, bleeding,
hypertension and proteinuria.
AOK / 31.07.2012
Accordingly, there is a need for methods of determining which patients respond particular well
to angiogenesis inhibitor therapy and/or which patients are tible to side effects associated
with anti-angiogenesis treatments.

alter angiogenesis (e.g. the process of forming blood vessels) and includes agents that inhibit the
angiogenesis, including, but not limited to, tumor angiogenesis. In this context, inhibition can
refer to blocking the formation of blood vessels and halting or slowing down the growth of blood
vessels. Examples of angiogenesis inhibitors include bevacizumab (also known as Avastin®),
pegaptanib, sunitinib, sorafenib and vatalanib. Bevacizumab is a recombinant humanized
monoclonal IgG1 antibody that binds to and ts the biological activity of human VEGFA in
in vitro and in vivo assay system. The term "bevacizumab" encompass all corresponding anti-
VEGF antibodies that fulfill the ements necessary for obtaining a marketing authorization
as an identical or biosimilar t in a country or territory ed from the group of countries
consisting of the USA, Europe and Japan. In the context of the present invention, an
angiogenesis inhibitor includes an antibody that binds essentially the same epitope on VEGF as
bevacizumab, more specifically an antibody that binds to the same epitope on VEGF as
bevacizumab. An antibody binds "essentially the same epitope" as a reference antibody, when
the two antibodies recognize identical or sterically pping epitopes. The most widely used
and rapid methods for determining whether two epitopes bind to identical or sterically
overlapping epitopes are competition assays, which can be configured in all number of different
formats, using either labeled n or d antibody. Usually, the n is immobilized on
a 96-well plate, and the ability of unlabeled antibodies to block the binding of labeled antibodies
is measured using radioactive or enzyme labels.
The term “cancer” refers to the physiological condition in mammals that is typically
characterized by unregulated cell proliferation. Examples of cancer include but are not limited to,
carcinoma, ma, blastoma, sarcoma and leukemia. More particular examples of such

cell lung cancer, adenocarcinoma of the lung, and squamous carcinoma of the lung), cancer of
the peritoneum, hepatocellular cancer, gastric or stomach cancer (including gastrointestinal
cancer), pancreatic cancer (including metastic atic cancer), glioblastoma, cervical cancer,
ovarian cancer, liver cancer, bladder cancer, hepatoma, breast cancer (including locally advanced,

The term “allele” refers to a nucleotide sequence variant of a gene of interest.
The term “genotype” refers to a description of the alleles of a gene contained in an individual or
a sample. In the context of this invention, no distinction is made n the genotype of an
individual and the genotype of a sample originating from the individual. Although typically a
genotype is determined from samples of diploid cells, a genotype can be determined from a
sample of d cells, such as a sperm cell.
The terms "oligonucleotide" and "polynucleotide" are used interchangeably and refer to a
molecule comprised of two or more deoxyribonucleotides or ribonucleotides, preferably more
than three. Its exact size will depend on many factors, which in turn depend on the ultimate
function or use of the oligonucleotide. An oligonucleotide can be derived synthetically or by
cloning. Chimeras of ibonucleotides and ribonucleotides may also be in the scope of the
present invention.
The term “polymorphism” refers to the occurrence of two or more genetically determined
ative sequences of a gene in a tion. Typically, the first identified allelic form is
arbitrarily designated as the reference form and other allelic forms are designated as alternative
or variant alleles. The allelic form occurring most frequently in a selected population is
sometimes referred to as the wildtype form.
The term a “single nucleotide polymorphism” or “SNP” is a site of one nucleotide that varies
n s. Single nucleotide polymorphisms may occur at any region of the gene. In some
instances the polymorphism can result in a change in protein sequence. The change in protein
sequence may affect protein function or not.
The term "hypertension" refers to high blood pressure. The “hypertension associated with a
therapy” can be measured with different grades according to the National Cancer Institute’s
Common Terminology ia for Adverse Events (CTCAE v2-3). As the skilled person will
appreciate, a patient is more susceptible to developing hypertension, if the patient belongs to a
subgroup of patients that has a statistically significant likelihood of developing hypertension as
compared to r subgroup of patients. Likewise, a patient is less susceptible to developing
hypertension, if the patient belongs to a subgroup of ts that has a statistically significant
likelihood of not developing hypertension as compared to another subgroup of patients.
The term "patient" refers to any single animal, more specifically a mammal (including such nonhuman
animals as, for e, dogs, cats, horses, s, zoo animals, cows, pigs, sheep, and
non-human primates) for which treatment is d. Even more specifically, the patient herein is
a human. In the context of the present invention, the patient may be a white subject.
The term “subject” herein is any single human subject, including a patient, eligible for treatment
who is experiencing or has experienced one or more signs, ms, or other indicators of an
angiogenic disorder. Intended to be included as a subject are any subjects involved in al
research trials not showing any clinical sign of disease, or subjects involved in iological
studies, or subjects once used as controls. The subject may have been previously treated with an
anti-cancer agent, or not so treated. The subject may be naïve to an additional agent(s) being
used when the ent herein is started, i.e., the subject may not have been previously treated
with, for example, an anti-neoplastic agent, a herapeutic agent, a growth inhibitory agent,
a cytotoxic agent at ine” (i.e., at a set point in time before the administration of a first dose
of an anti-cancer in the treatment method herein, such as the day of screening the subject before
treatment is commenced). Such "naïve" subjects are generally considered to be candidates for
treatment with such additional agent(s).
The term "a patient suffering from" refers to a patient showing clinical signs in respect to a
n malignant disease, such as cancer, a disease involving logical and pathological
angiogenesis and/or tumorous disease.
As used herein, “therapy” or “treatment” refers to clinical intervention in an attempt to alter the
natural course of the individual or cell being treated, and can be performed either for prophylaxis
or during the course of clinical pathology. Desirable s of treatment include preventing
occurrence or recurrence of disease, alleviation of symptoms, diminishment of any direct or
indirect pathological consequences of the disease, preventing metastasis, decreasing the rate of
e progression, amelioration or palliation of the e state, and remission or improved
prognosis.
The term ll survival" refers to the length of time during and after ent the patient
survives.
The term "progression-free survival" refers to the length of time during and after treatment
during which, according to the assessment of the treating ian or investigator, the patient's
e does not become worse, i.e., does not progress.
The term "pharmaceutical composition" refers to a sterile preparation that is in such form as to
permit the biological activity of the medicament to be effective, and which contains no additional
components that are unacceptably toxic to a subject to which the formulation would be
administered.
2. Detailed Embodiments
In the present ion, variations in the KDR and EGF genes were surprisingly identified as
markers/predictors for susceptibility to developing hypertension associated with treatment by an
angiogenesis inhibitor. The terms "marker" and "predictor" can be used interchangeably and
refer to specific allele variants of genes. The variation or marker may also be referred to as a
single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP).
In accordance with the methods of the present invention, a meta-analysis of SNPs was conducted
using the samples derived from five Phase II and Phase III trials with bevacizumab, i.e.
NO16966 (advanced y colorectal cancer, see, Saltz et al., 2008, J. Clin. Oncol. 26:2013-
2019 and z et al., 2004, N. Engl. J. Med. 350:2335-2342), AVITA (pancreatic cancer, see,
Van Cutsem, J. Clin. Oncol. 2009 27:2231-2237), AVAiL (non-small cell lung cancer, see, Reck
et al., J. Clin. Oncol. 2009 27:1227), AVOREN (renal cancer, see, er et al., J. Clin. Oncol.
2010 28:2144) and AVADO (breast cancer, see, Miles, J. Clin. Oncol. 2010 28:3239).
As shown in the examples, ten SNPs were associated with bevacizumab-induced hypertension
), but none of these surpassed the threshold for multiple testing (p<0.0003). The two
SNPs showing the strongest association (p<0.01) were: rs2305949 (SEQ ID NO. 3) in KDR
(allelic OR 0.93, 95% CI 0.88–0.98, p=0.0067) and rs4444903 (SEQ ID NO. 4) in EGF (allelic
OR 1.06, 95% CI 1.02–1.11, 52). For rs2305949 (SEQ ID NO. 3) (KDR), CC carriers
(wildtype) showed a higher ncy of developing hypertension when treated with BEV, while
patients treated with placebo did show a rather opposite result, showing highest hypetrtension
frequency in patients carrying TT. For rs4444903 (SEQ ID NO. 4) (EGF), the heterozygote GA
carriers showed the highest frequency of hypertension, an effect that was not seen in the placebo
treated patients, as no ences were seen between different genotypes. Interestingly,
rs2305949 (SEQ ID NO. 3) and rs4444903 (SEQ ID NO. 4) were closely linked to amino acid
changes occurring on position 273 and 708 of KDR and EGF, suggesting that these changes may
functionally affect both genes and thereby bute to hypertension.

3. Detection of Nucleic Acid Polymorphisms
Detection techniques for evaluating nucleic acids for the presence of a SNP involve procedures
well known in the field of molecular genetics. Many, but not all, of the methods involve
ication of nucleic acids. Ample ce for ming amplification is provided in the
art. Exemplary references include manuals such as PCR Technology: Principles and
ations for DNA Amplification (ed. H. A. Erlich, Freeman Press, NY, N.Y., 1992); PCR
Protocols: A Guide to Methods and Applications (eds. Innis, et al., Academic Press, San Diego,
Calif., 1990); Current Protocols in Molecular Biology, Ausubel, 1994-1999, including
supplemental updates h April 2004; Sambrook & Russell, Molecular Cloning, A
Laboratory Manual (3rd Ed, 2001). General methods for detection of single nucleotide
polymorphisms are disclosed in Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms: Methods and Protocols, Pui-
Yan Kwok, ed., 2003, Humana Press.
Although the s typically employ PCR steps, other amplification protocols may also be
used. Suitable amplification methods include ligase chain reaction (see, e.g., Wu & Wallace,
Genomics 4:560-569, 1988); strand displacement assay (see, e.g. Walker et al., Proc. Natl. Acad.
Sci. USA 89:392-396, 1992; U.S. Pat. No. 5,455,166); and several transcription-based
amplification systems, including the methods described in U.S. Pat. Nos. 5,437,990; 5,409,818;
and 5,399,491; the transcription amplification system (TAS) (Kwoh et al., Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci.
USA 86:1173-1177, 1989); and self-sustained sequence ation (3SR) (Guatelli et al., Proc.
Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 87:1874-1878, 1990; WO 92/08800). Alternatively, methods that amplify
the probe to detectable levels can be used, such as licase amplification (Kramer & Lizardi,
Nature 339:401-402, 1989; Lomeli et al., Clin. Chem. 35:1826-1831, 1989). A review of known
amplification methods is provided, for e, by Abramson and Myers in Current n in
Biotechnology 4:41-47, 1993.
ion of the genotype, haplotype, SNP, microsatellite or other rphism of an
individual can be performed using oligonucleotide primers and/or probes. Oligonucleotides can
be prepared by any suitable method, usually chemical sis. Oligonucleotides can be
synthesized using commercially available reagents and instruments. Alternatively, they can be
purchased through commercial sources. Methods of synthesizing oligonucleotides are well
known in the art (see, e.g, Narang et al., Meth. Enzymol. 68:90-99, 1979; Brown et al., Meth.
l. 68:109-151, 1979; Beaucage et al., Tetrahedron Lett. 22:1859-1862, 1981; and the
solid support method of U.S. Pat. No. 4,458,066). In addition, modifications to the above-
described methods of synthesis may be used to desirably impact enzyme or with respect to
the sized oligonucleotides. For example, incorporation of modified phosphodiester
linkages (e.g., phosphorothioate, methylphosphonates, phosphoamidate, or boranophosphate) or
linkages other than a phosphorous acid derivative into an oligonucleotide may be used to t
cleavage at a selected site. In addition, the use of 2’-amino modified sugars tends to favor
displacement over ion of the oligonucleotide when hybridized to a nucleic acid that is also
the template for synthesis of a new nucleic acid strand.
The genotype of an individual can be determined using many detection methods that are well
known in the art. Most assays entail one of several general protocols: hybridization using allele-
ic oligonucleotides, primer extension, allele-specific ligation, sequencing, or
electrophoretic separation techniques, e.g., single-stranded conformational polymorphism (SSCP)
and heteroduplex analysis. ary assays include 5’-nuclease , template-directed dyeterminator
incorporation, molecular beacon allele-specific oligonucleotide assays, single-base
extension assays, and SNP scoring by real-time pyrophosphate sequences. Analysis of amplified
ces can be performed using various technologies such as microchips, fluorescence
polarization assays, and MALDI-TOF (matrix ed laser desorption tion-time of flight)
mass spectrometry. Two methods that can also be used are assays based on invasive cleavage
with Flap nucleases and methodologies employing k probes.
ination of the presence or absence of a particular allele is generally performed by
analyzing a nucleic acid sample that is ed from the individual to be analyzed. Often, the
nucleic acid sample comprises genomic DNA. The genomic DNA is typically obtained from
blood samples, but may also be obtained from other cells or tissues.
It is also possible to analyze RNA samples for the presence of polymorphic alleles. For example,
mRNA can be used to determine the pe of an individual at one or more polymorphic sites.
In this case, the nucleic acid sample is obtained from cells in which the target nucleic acid is
expressed, e.g., adipocytes. Such an analysis can be performed by first reverse-transcribing the
target RNA using, for example, a viral reverse transcriptase, and then amplifying the resulting
cDNA; or using a combined high-temperature reverse-transcription-polymerase chain reaction
(RT-PCR), as described in U.S. Pat. Nos. 5,310,652; 5,322,770; 5,561,058; 5,641,864; and
,693,517.
Frequently used methodologies for analysis of c acid samples to detect SNPs are briefly
described. However, any method known in the art can be used in the invention to detect the
presence of single nucleotide substitutions.
a. Allele-Specific Hybridization
This technique, also commonly referred to as allele specific oligonucleotide ization (ASO)
(e.g., Stoneking et al., Am. J. Hum. Genet. 48:70-382, 1991; Saiki et al., Nature 324, 163-166,
1986; EP 235,726; and WO 89/11548), relies on distinguishing between two DNA molecules
differing by one base by hybridizing an oligonucleotide probe that is ic for one of the
variants to an amplified product obtained from ying the nucleic acid sample. This method
typically employs short oligonucleotides, e.g. 15-20 bases in length. The probes are designed to
entially hybridize to one variant versus another. Principles and guidance for designing such
probe is ble in the art, e.g. in the references cited herein. ization conditions should
be sufficiently stringent that there is a significant difference in hybridization intensity between
alleles, and producing an essentially binary response, whereby a probe hybridizes to only one of
the alleles. Some probes are designed to ize to a segment of target DNA such that the
rphic site aligns with a central position (e.g., in a 15-base ucleotide at the 7
on; in a 16-based ucleotide at either the 8 or 9 position) of the probe, but this design
is not required.
The amount and/or presence of an allele is determined by measuring the amount of allelespecific
oligonucleotide that is hybridized to the sample. Typically, the oligonucleotide is labeled
with a label such as a fluorescent label. For example, an allele-specific oligonucleotide is applied
to immobilized ucleotides representing SNP sequences. After ent hybridization and
washing conditions, fluorescence intensity is measured for each SNP oligonucleotide.
In one embodiment, the nucleotide t at the polymorphic site is identified by hybridization
under sequence-specific hybridization conditions with an oligonucleotide probe or primer
exactly complementary to one of the polymorphic s in a region encompassing the
polymorphic site. The probe or primer izing sequence and sequence-specific hybridization
conditions are selected such that a single mismatch at the polymorphic site destabilizes the
hybridization duplex sufficiently so that it is effectively not formed. Thus, under sequencespecific
hybridization conditions, stable duplexes will form only between the probe or primer
and the exactly complementary allelic ce. Thus, oligonucleotides from about 10 to about
nucleotides in length, usually from about 15 to about 35 nucleotides in length, which are
y mentary to an allele sequence in a region which encompasses the polymorphic
site are within the scope of the invention.
In an alternative embodiment, the nucleotide present at the polymorphic site is identified by
hybridization under sufficiently stringent hybridization conditions with an oligonucleotide
substantially complementary to one of the SNP alleles in a region assing the polymorphic
site, and exactly complementary to the allele at the polymorphic site. Because mismatches which
occur at non-polymorphic sites are mismatches with both allele sequences, the difference in the
number of mismatches in a duplex formed with the target allele sequence and in a duplex formed
with the corresponding non-target allele sequence is the same as when an oligonucleotide exactly
complementary to the target allele sequence is used. In this embodiment, the hybridization
conditions are relaxed sufficiently to allow the formation of stable duplexes with the target
sequence, while maintaining sufficient stringency to preclude the formation of stable duplexes
with non-target sequences. Under such sufficiently stringent ization conditions, stable
duplexes will form only between the probe or primer and the target allele. Thus, oligonucleotides
from about 10 to about 35 nucleotides in length, usually from about 15 to about 35 nucleotides in
length, which are substantially complementary to an allele sequence in a region which
encompasses the polymorphic site, and are exactly complementary to the allele sequence at the
polymorphic site, are within the scope of the invention.
The use of substantially, rather than exactly, complementary oligonucleotides may be desirable
in assay s in which optimization of hybridization conditions is limited. For example, in a
typical multi-target immobilized-oligonucleotide assay format, probes or primers for each target
are immobilized on a single solid support. Hybridizations are d out simultaneously by
contacting the solid support with a on containing target DNA. As all hybridizations are
carried out under identical conditions, the hybridization conditions cannot be separately
optimized for each probe or primer. The incorporation of ches into a probe or primer can
be used to adjust duplex stability when the assay format precludes adjusting the hybridization
conditions. The effect of a particular introduced mismatch on duplex ity is well known, and
the duplex stability can be routinely both estimated and empirically determined, as described
above. Suitable hybridization conditions, which depend on the exact size and sequence of the
probe or primer, can be selected empirically using the guidance provided herein and well known
in the art. The use of oligonucleotide probes or primers to detect single base pair ences in
sequence is described in, for example, Conner et al., 1983, Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 80:278-
282, and U.S. Pat. Nos. 5,468,613 and 5,604,099, each incorporated herein by reference.
The proportional change in stability n a perfectly matched and a -base mismatched
hybridization duplex s on the length of the hybridized oligonucleotides. Duplexes formed
with shorter probe sequences are destabilized proportionally more by the presence of a mismatch.
Oligonucleotides between about 15 and about 35 nucleotides in length are often used for
sequence-specific detection. Furthermore, because the ends of a hybridized oligonucleotide
o continuous random dissociation and re-annealing due to thermal energy, a mismatch at
either end destabilizes the hybridization duplex less than a mismatch occurring ally. For
discrimination of a single base pair change in target sequence, the probe sequence is selected
which hybridizes to the target sequence such that the polymorphic site occurs in the interior
region of the probe.
The above criteria for ing a probe sequence that hybridizes to a specific allele apply to the
hybridizing region of the probe, i.e., that part of the probe which is involved in hybridization
with the target sequence. A probe may be bound to an additional nucleic acid sequence, such as a
poly-T tail used to immobilize the probe, without significantly altering the hybridization
characteristics of the probe. One of skill in the art will recognize that for use in the present
methods, a probe bound to an additional nucleic acid sequence which is not complementary to
the target sequence and, thus, is not involved in the hybridization, is essentially equivalent to the
unbound probe.
Suitable assay formats for detecting hybrids formed between probes and target nucleic acid
sequences in a sample are known in the art and include the immobilized target (dot-blot) format
and immobilized probe (reverse dot-blot or line-blot) assay formats. Dot blot and reverse dot blot
assay formats are bed in U.S. Pat. Nos. 5,310,893; 5,451,512; 5,468,613; and 5,604,099;
each incorporated herein by nce.
In a dot-blot format, ied target DNA is immobilized on a solid support, such as a nylon
membrane. The membrane-target x is incubated with labeled probe under suitable
hybridization conditions, unhybridized probe is removed by washing under suitably stringent
conditions, and the membrane is red for the presence of bound probe.
In the reverse dot-blot (or line-blot) , the probes are immobilized on a solid support, such
as a nylon membrane or a microtiter plate. The target DNA is d, typically during
amplification by the incorporation of labeled primers. One or both of the s can be labeled.
The membrane-probe x is incubated with the labeled amplified target DNA under suitable
hybridization ions, unhybridized target DNA is removed by washing under suitably
stringent conditions, and the membrane is monitored for the ce of bound target DNA. A
reverse lot detection assay is described in the example.
An allele-specific probe that is specific for one of the polymorphism ts is often used in
conjunction with the allele-specific probe for the other polymorphism variant. In some
embodiments, the probes are immobilized on a solid support and the target sequence in an
individual is analyzed using both probes simultaneously. Examples of nucleic acid arrays are
described by WO 95/11995. The same array or a different array can be used for analysis of
characterized polymorphisms. WO 95/11995 also describes subarrays that are optimized for
detection of variant forms of a pre-characterized polymorphism. Such a subarray can be used in
detecting the presence of the polymorphisms described .
b. Allele-Specific Primers
Polymorphisms are also commonly detected using allele-specific amplification or primer
extension methods. These reactions typically involve use of primers that are ed to
specifically target a polymorphism via a mismatch at the 3’-end of a primer. The presence of a
mismatch effects the ability of a polymerase to extend a primer when the polymerase lacks error-
correcting activity. For example, to detect an allele sequence using an allele-specific
amplification- or ion-based method, a primer complementary to one allele of a
polymorphism is ed such that the 3’-terminal nucleotide hybridizes at the polymorphic
position. The ce of the particular allele can be determined by the ability of the primer to
initiate extension. If the 3’-terminus is mismatched, the extension is impeded.
In some embodiments, the primer is used in conjunction with a second primer in an amplification
reaction. The second primer hybridizes at a site unrelated to the polymorphic position.
Amplification proceeds from the two s leading to a detectable product signifying the
particular allelic form is present. -specific amplification- or extension-based s are
described in, for example, WO 93/22456; U.S. Pat. Nos. 806; 5,595,890; 5,639,611; and
U.S. Pat. No. 4,851,331.
Using allele-specific amplification-based genotyping, identification of the alleles requires only
ion of the presence or absence of amplified target sequences. Methods for the detection of
amplified target sequences are well known in the art. For example, gel electrophoresis and probe
hybridization assays described are often used to detect the presence of nucleic acids.
In an alternative probe-less method, the ied nucleic acid is detected by monitoring the
increase in the total amount of double-stranded DNA in the reaction e, is described, e.g. in
U.S. Pat. No. 5,994,056; and European Patent Publication Nos. 487,218 and 512,334. The
detection of double-stranded target DNA relies on the increased fluorescence various DNA-
binding dyes, e.g., SYBR Green, t when bound to double-stranded DNA.
As appreciated by one in the art, allele-specific amplification methods can be med in
reaction that employ multiple allele-specific primers to target particular alleles. Primers for such
multiplex applications are generally labeled with distinguishable labels or are selected such that
the ication products produced from the alleles are distinguishable by size. Thus, for
example, both alleles in a single sample can be identified using a single amplification by gel
analysis of the amplification product.
As in the case of allele-specific probes, an allele-specific oligonucleotide primer may be y
mentary to one of the rphic alleles in the hybridizing region or may have some
mismatches at positions other than the 3’-terminus of the oligonucleotide, which mismatches
occur at lymorphic sites in both allele sequences.
c. Detectable Probes
i) 5’-Nuclease Assay Probes
Genotyping can also be performed using a “TaqMan®” or “5’-nuclease assay” , as
described in U.S. Pat. Nos. 5,210,015; 5,487,972; and 5,804,375; and Holland et al., 1988, Proc.
Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 88:7276-7280. In the TaqMan® assay, labeled detection probes that
hybridize within the amplified region are added during the amplification reaction. The probes are
modified so as to prevent the probes from acting as primers for DNA synthesis. The
amplification is performed using a DNA polymerase having 5’- to 3’-exonuclease activity.
During each synthesis step of the amplification, any probe which hybridizes to the target nucleic
acid downstream from the primer being extended is degraded by the 5’- to 3’-exonuclease
activity of the DNA polymerase. Thus, the synthesis of a new target strand also results in the
degradation of a probe, and the accumulation of degradation product provides a measure of the
synthesis of target sequences.
The hybridization probe can be an allele-specific probe that discriminates between the SNP
alleles. Alternatively, the method can be performed using an allele-specific primer and a labeled
probe that binds to amplified product.
Any method suitable for detecting degradation t can be used in a lease assay. Often,
the detection probe is d with two scent dyes, one of which is e of quenching
the fluorescence of the other dye. The dyes are attached to the probe, usually one ed to the
’-terminus and the other is attached to an internal site, such that quenching occurs when the
probe is in an unhybridized state and such that ge of the probe by the 5’- to 3’-exonuclease
activity of the DNA polymerase occurs in between the two dyes. Amplification results in
cleavage of the probe between the dyes with a concomitant elimination of quenching and an
increase in the fluorescence observable from the initially quenched dye. The accumulation of
degradation t is monitored by measuring the increase in on fluorescence. U.S. Pat.
Nos. 5,491,063 and 5,571,673, both incorporated herein by reference, describe alternative
methods for detecting the degradation of probe which occurs concomitant with amplification.
ii) Secondary Structure Probes
Probes detectable upon a secondary structural change are also suitable for detection of a
polymorphism, including SNPs. Exemplified secondary structure or stem-loop structure probes
include molecular beacons or Scorpion® primer/probes. Molecular beacon probes are singlestranded
oligonucleic acid probes that can form a hairpin structure in which a fluorophore and a
quencher are usually placed on the opposite ends of the oligonucleotide. At either end of the
probe short complementary sequences allow for the formation of an intramolecular stem, which
s the fluorophore and the quencher to come into close ity. The loop portion of the
molecular beacon is mentary to a target nucleic acid of interest. Binding of this probe to
its target nucleic acid of interest forms a hybrid that forces the stem apart. This causes a
conformation change that moves the phore and the quencher away from each other and
leads to a more intense fluorescent signal. lar beacon probes are, however, highly
sensitive to small sequence ion in the probe target (Tyagi S. and Kramer F. R., Nature
Biotechnology, Vol. 14, pages 303-308 (1996); Tyagi et al., Nature Biotechnology, Vol. 16,
pages 49-53(1998); Piatek et al., Nature Biotechnology, Vol. 16, pages 359-363 (1998); Marras
S. et al., Genetic is: Biomolecular Engineering, Vol. 14, pages 151-156 (1999); Tpp I. et
al, BioTechniques, Vol 28, pages 8 (2000)). A Scorpion® primer/probe comprises a stemloop
structure probe covalently linked to a primer.
d. DNA Sequencing and Single Base Extensions
SNPs can also be detected by direct sequencing. s include e.g. dideoxy sequencing-based
methods and other methods such as Maxam and Gilbert ce (see, e.g. Sambrook and
Russell, supra).
Other detection methods include Pyrosequencing™ of oligonucleotide-length products. Such
methods often employ amplification techniques such as PCR. For example, in pyrosequencing, a
sequencing primer is hybridized to a single stranded, PCR-amplified, DNA template; and
incubated with the enzymes, DNA polymerase, ATP sulfurylase, luciferase and e, and the
substrates, adenosine 5’ phosphosulfate (APS) and luciferin. The first of four deoxynucleotide
triphosphates (dNTP) is added to the reaction. DNA polymerase catalyzes the incorporation of
the deoxynucleotide sphate into the DNA , if it is complementary to the base in the
template strand. Each incorporation event is accompanied by release of pyrophosphate (PPi) in a
quantity equimolar to the amount of orated nucleotide. ATP sulfurylase quantitatively
converts PPi to ATP in the presence of adenosine 5’ phosphosulfate. This ATP drives the
luciferase-mediated conversion of luciferin to oxyluciferin that generates visible light in amounts
that are proportional to the amount of ATP. The light ed in the luciferase-catalyzed
reaction is detected by a charge coupled device (CCD) camera and seen as a peak in a
Pyrogram™. Each light signal is proportional to the number of nucleotides incorporated.
e, a nucleotide degrading enzyme, continuously es unincorporated dNTPs and
excess ATP. When degradation is complete, another dNTP is added.
Another similar method for characterizing SNPs does not require use of a complete PCR, but
typically uses only the extension of a primer by a single, fluorescence-labeled
dideoxyribonucleic acid molecule (ddNTP) that is complementary to the nucleotide to be
investigated. The nucleotide at the polymorphic site can be identified via detection of a primer
that has been extended by one base and is fluorescently labeled (e.g., Kobayashi et al, Mol. Cell.
Probes, 9:175-182, 1995).
e. Electrophoresis
ication products generated using the polymerase chain reaction can be analyzed by the
use of denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis. Different alleles can be identified based on the
different sequence-dependent melting properties and electrophoretic migration of DNA in
solution (see, e.g. Erlich, ed., PCR Technology, Principles and ations for DNA
Amplification, W. H. Freeman and Co, New York, 1992, Chapter 7).
Distinguishing of atellite polymorphisms can be done using capillary electrophoresis.
Capillary electrophoresis conveniently allows identification of the number of s in a
ular microsatellite allele. The application of capillary electrophoresis to the analysis of
DNA polymorphisms is well known to those in the art (see, for example, Szantai, et al, J
Chromatogr A. (2005) 1079(1-2):41-9; Bjorheim and Ekstrom, Electrophoresis (2005)
26(13):2520-30 and Mitchelson, Mol Biotechnol. (2003) 24(1):41-68).
f. -Strand Conformation Polymorphism Analysis
Alleles of target sequences can be differentiated using single-strand conformation polymorphism
analysis, which identifies base differences by alteration in electrophoretic migration of single
stranded PCR products, as described, e.g, in Orita et al., Proc. Nat. Acad. Sci. 86, 2766-2770
(1989). Amplified PCR products can be generated as described above, and heated or otherwise
denatured, to form single stranded ication products. Single-stranded nucleic acids may
refold or form secondary structures which are partially dependent on the base sequence. The
different electrophoretic mobilities of single-stranded amplification ts can be d to
base-sequence difference between alleles of target
SNP detection s often employ labeled oligonucleotides. Oligonucleotides can be labeled
by incorporating a label detectable by spectroscopic, hemical, biochemical,
immunochemical, or chemical means. Useful labels include fluorescent dyes, radioactive labels,
e.g. 32P, electron-dense reagents, enzyme, such as dase or alkaline phosphatase, biotin, or
haptens and proteins for which antisera or onal antibodies are available. Labeling
techniques are well known in the art (see, e.g. Current Protocols in Molecular Biology, supra;
Sambrook & Russell, supra).
4. Methods of Treatment
Dosages of with bevacizumab (Avastin®) for treatments of specific cancers, according to the
EMEA, are as follows. For metastatic carcinoma of the colon or rectum (mCRC) recommended
dosages are 5 mg/kg or 10 mg/kg of body weight given once every 2 weeks or 7.5 mg/kg or 15
mg/kg of body weight given once every 3 weeks, for metastatic breast cancer (mBC)
recommended dosages are 10 mg/kg of body weight given once every 2 weeks or 15 mg/kg of
body weight given once every 3 weeks as an intravenous infusion, and for non-small cell lung
cancer (NSCLC) recommended dosages are 7.5 mg/kg or 15 mg/kg of body weight given once
every 3 weeks as an intravenous infusion. Clinical benefit in NSCLC patients has been
demonstrated with both 7.5 mg/kg and 15 mg/kg doses. For details refer to section 5.1
Pharmacodynamic ties, all cell lung cancer (NSCLC). For ed and/or
metastatic Renal Cell Cancer (mRCC) preferred dosages are 10 mg/kg of body weight given
once every 2 weeks as an intravenous infusion(in addition to platinum-based chemotherapy for
up to 6 cycles of treatment followed by zumab (Avastin®) as a single agent until disease
progression). For gliablastoma a particular dosage is 10 mg/kg every 2 weeks.
In the context of the present invention, the angiogenesis inhibitor may be administered in
addition to or as a co-therapy or a co-treatment with one or more chemotherapeutic agents
administered as part of standard chemotherapy regimen as known in the art. Examples of agents

ogical angiogenesis is being treated with one or more chemotherapeutic agents such as
5-fluorouracil, leucovorin, irinotecan, gemcitabine-erlotinib, capecitabine and/or platinum-based
chemotherapeutic agents, such as paclitaxel, carboplatin and oxaliplatin. Examples of cotherapy

The present invention is r described by reference to the following non-limited figures and
examples.
Examples
Example 1:
Genetic determination can influence sensitivity of the endothelium to VEGF. In accordance with
this and in context of this invention, we explored genetic variability in underlying signaling
pathways in order to discover predictive patterns for anti enic treatment and the
development of hypertension under this therapy n. In this analysis, the correlation of
genetic variability in the VEGF-A signaling pathway with clinical outcome of patients with
different advanced primary cancers was assessed in 5 different trials. All five were randomised
parallel trials to investigate the efficacy and safety of BEV (bevacizumab) in subjects with
metastatic colorectal cancer (NO16966), metastatic pancreatic cancer (AVITA), ed or
recurrent non-squamous non-small-cell lung cancer (AVAIL), metastatic renal cancer
(AVOREN) and egative atic breast cancer (AVADO).
In all five trials, al DNA biomarker sampling was included for SNP analysis. In total,
germline DNA was available from 1346 patients. Common single nucleotide polymorphisms
(SNPs) located in the hypoxia-inducible factor-1α and -2α, VEGF-A, its receptors (VEGFR-1
and -2) and other relevant genes were selected based on literature and using a SNP tagging
approach (f≥0.1 and r2 ≤ 0.8). 157 SNPs were sfully genotyped using MALDI-TOF mass
spectrometry. Risk and survival estimates were ated using Cox sion analyses.
Two types of analyses were performed.
1. Correlation of genetic markers to PFS and OS.
2. Correlaton of genetic markers to hypertension, not fied as ated to study drug”
The rs699946 (SEQ ID NO. 1) SNP, located in the VEGF-A promoter, was associated with
improved PFS in bev-treated subjects with an allelic HR of 1.26 (95% CI 1.07–1.48, p=0.005).
No effect was seen in placebo subjects, suggesting that 46 (SEQ ID NO. 1) may be a
predictive marker for favourable outcome with bevacizumab ent. Further, the rs11133360
(SEQ ID NO. 5) SNP, located in the VEGFR2, was associated with improved PFS in
bevacizumab-treated subjects with an allelic HR of 1.15 (95% CI 1.02–1.30, p=0.02). In terms of
OS, the rs12505758 (SEQ ID NO. 2) SNP in VEGFR2 was most significantly associated with
improved OS in bev-treated pts (allelic HR 1.50, 95% CI 1.21–1.86, p=0.0002). No effects for
rs12505758 (SEQ ID NO. 2) were seen in placebo pts.
Ten SNPs were associated with bevacizumab-induced hypertension (p<0.05), but none of these
surpassed the threshold for multiple testing (p<0.0003). The two SNPs showing the strongest
association (p<0.01) were: rs2305949 (SEQ ID NO. 3) in KDR (allelic OR 0.93, 95% CI 0.88–
0.98, p=0.0067), and rs4444903 (SEQ ID NO. 4) in EGF (allelic OR 1.06, 95% CI 1.02–1.11,
p=0.0052). Interestingly, rs2305949 (SEQ ID NO. 3) and rs4444903 (SEQ ID NO. 4) were
closely linked to amino acid s ing on position 273 and 708 of KDR and EGF,
suggesting that these changes may functionally affect both genes and y contribute to
hypertension. y, rs11064560 in WNK1 was also ated with bevacizumab-induced
hypertension (allelic OR 1.06, 95% CI 1.01–1.10, p=0.02), thereby supporting previous
observations in a limited number of patients [Frey et al. J Clin Oncol 26: 2008 (May 20 suppl;
abstr 11003)].
PATIENTS AND METHODS

non-white patients are genetically distinct from white patients and SNP frequencies may differ
n both ethnic groups, non-white patients were omitted from further is. All patients
provided separate written informed consent for genetic ker testing.

Single Nucleotide Polymorphism Selection
Two marker panels were considered for analysis: The Roche panel and Leuven panel. The Roche
panel consists of 35 genetic polymorphisms selected by literature review for potential relevance
to BEV treatment. The panel is made up of SNPs and repeat polymorphisms lying in the
following genes: VEGFA, NOS3, FLT1 (VEGFR1), KDR 2), WNK1, IL8, IL8R and
IFNAR2. The Leuven panel consists of 186 tag SNPs from the VEGF signalling cascade or from
candidate genes for known side-effects, hypertension or thrombosis and includes the following
genes: the VEGF ligand, the VEGF homologues (placental growth factor or PlGF, VEGF-B and
-C, as well as VEGF-D or FlGF), the VEGF receptor-2 (KDR or VEGFR-2) and VEGF receptor-
1 (FLT1 or VEGFR-1). Genomic sequences 5 kb am of the translation start site up to 3’
poly-A adenylation site of each gene, were used to select SNPs from the HapMap database
(HapMap Data Rel 24/phaseII Nov08, on NCBI B36 assembly, dbSNP b126). Tagging SNPs
were selected using the Tagger , I., et al., Nat. Genet. 38, 663-7 ) as provided in the
HAPLOVIEW software package (Barrett, J.C., et al., Bioinformatics. 21, 263-5 ). Only
SNPs occurring commonly, i.e., with a minor allele ncy f≥0.1 and a minimum r2 threshold
≥0.8 were considered. In total, 167 tagging SNPs were selected following these criteria.
Additionally, 11 SNPs located in exonic ces and inducing non-synonymous amino-acid
changes at a frequency f≥0.1 were selected from the dbSNP database, as well as 4 SNPs in
VEGF (rs699947, 61, rs2010963 and rs3025039), 1 SNP in VEGFR-1 (rsTP53_R-1) and
1 SNP in 2 (rs2071559), which previously have been reported to affect function or
expression of these genes.
There is some overlap between s in the two panels, and the size of the panels has
increased slightly over the duration of the six trials, so fewer markers are available for earlier
trials. The current meta-analysis is confined to markers for which genotyping was conducted in
at least two trials under study.
Four marker sets were defined as follows:
• ‘All s’ consists of all markers assayed for which at least one genotype was obtained.
• ‘Roche Markers’ consists of markers from the Roche panel, which passed quality checks (see
below) and had frequency greater than 1% in white subjects.
• ‘Leuven Efficacy Markers’ consists of those markers from the Leuven panel, which lie in loci
implicated in the VEGF pathway, which passed quality checks (see below) and which had
frequency r than 1% in white subjects.
• n Safety Markers’ consists of those s from the Leuven panel which lie in
candidate genes for involvement in hypertension or thrombosis, which passed y checks (see
below) and which had ncy greater than 1% in white subjects.
Genotyping
Peripheral blood was sampled in K2EDTA plastic Vacutainer tubes. After centrifugation, germline
DNA was extracted from the precipitated leucocyte cell fraction according to standard
ures.
For SNPs of the Roche panel, Genotyping was carried out in a blinded manner at the Roche
Translational Research Sciences Genetics laboratories (Basel, Switzerland) using Allele Specific
PCR amplification, Sanger sequencing and Fragment Analysis platforms (AVAIL, AVITA,
AVOREN, AVADO, NO16966).
For SNPs of the Leuven panel, ping was carried out in a blinded manner at the us
Research Center (Leuven, Belgium) using the Sequenom iPLEX platform (Sequenom Inc, San
Diego, CA, USA). Any SNP that failed to provide a robust genotype in the first genotyping
round was redesigned using a different set of polymerase chain on primers and retested.
Overall, 157 ) were successfully genotyped with an overall success rate of 98.5%. The 27

Quality checking
Data were checked for quality as follows:
• Uniformity of assay strand was d
• Levels of missing data were summarised
• Markers with minor allele frequency (MAF<1%) were excluded
• Markers failing a test of homogeneity of allele frequency were excluded
• Tests of Hardy Weinberg Equilibrium (HWE) were conducted to assist interpretation
After quality check, 25 Roche Markers, 133 Leuven Efficacy Markers and 22 Leuven Safety
Markers were subjected to pooled association analysis.
Statistical analysis
A pooled analysis of individual patient data, stratified by study was d to all markers with
homogeneous ncy. Candidate markers for efficacy were tested for association to PFS and
OS using Cox Proportional Hazards Regression. Candidate markers for safety were tested for
association to Hypertension using logistic regression. The primary is involved white
BEV-treated subjects from the ITT (for efficacy endpoints) and SP tension), as riate.
ments were made in all association tests for the following covariates: Region, study and
dose and background chemotherapy regimen. A subset of the following variables, selected by
endpoint using rds stepwise regression, were adjusted for as well: ECOG performance
status (0 vs. 1), gender (male vs. female), age, LDH, alkaline phosphatase level n normal
range vs. above normal range), serum albumin (<2.9g/dL vs. >=2.9g/dL) and baseline number of
atic sites (>2 vs. <=2). In order to investigate whether any ed associations reflected
temporal rather than treatment effects, association testing was also conducted in white placebotreated
subjects. In order to r characterise any detected associations, Genotype x
Treatment interaction analysis was conducted in white subjects.
Data
26 Roche Markers, 136 Leuven Efficacy Markers and 22 Leuven Safety Markers passed quality
checking and were ted to homogeneity analysis. Table 1 shows the number of ts to
be incorporated into the meta-analysis. It is noted that 3 subjects in the ITT were not in the SP
and 3 subjects had missing values for randomised weekly dose ).

Clinical data was available for 1348 subjects from 5 trials, with approximately equal numbers
overall on d and placebo. In contrast to the other trials, no males participated in 8
(AVADO), which was a trial of ed breast cancer. The age distributions and the
tions white were broadly homogeneous, except for a slightly lower proportion of white
subjects in the largest trial, NO16966. The median lengths of OS and PFS varied widely as did
the rates of censoring. As expected, censoring for OS was far r than for PFS and in
statistical terms, the effect will be to reduce power to detect association to OS compared to PFS.
Rates of BOR were 49% in BEV-treated subjects and 46% in PBO-treated subjects. Rates of
ension were 18% in BEV-treated subjects and 7% in PBO-treated subjects (Figure 4).
For PFS there were 592 events and for OS, there were 438 events out of 629 white BEV-treated
subjects in the PGx-ITT. For Hypertension, there were 113 events out of a total of 628 white
BEV-treated subjects in PGx-SP. Table 3 shows the number of white subjects to be incorporated

Progression Free Survival
Analysis in the sub-group of patients treated with Bevacizumab
The strongest ation in VEGF-A with PFS was for rs699946 (SEQ ID NO. 1) (p=0.005).
Although the result would not be significant after adjustment for multiple-testing, it provides
consistent upstream signal with marker rs699947, published by Schneider et al. J Clin Oncol
2008 26:4672. A scatter plot of association across the whole gene is given in Figure 5.
Marker Chr BP MAF N HR 95% CI p-value Gene
rs699946 Chr6 43732669 0.18 542 1.26 (1.07,1.48) 0.0047 VEGFA
Relative to AA carriers, HR for rs699946 (SEQ ID NO. 1) AG carriers was 1.26 (95% CI 1.07–
1.48, p=0.005). This means that each additional G allele was associated with 27% increase in
risk of ssion or death. No effect was seen in placebo subjects, ting that rs699946
(SEQ ID NO. 1) may be a predictive marker for able outcome with bevacizumab treatment.
As shown in Figure 6, consistent s for rs699946 (SEQ ID NO. 1) were seen for all studies
except AVOREN/BO17705 (renal cancer), the smallest study under consideration.
Further, the rs11133360 (SEQ ID NO. 5) was weakly associated (p=0.02) to PFS (Figure 13).
Marker Chr BP MAF N HR 95% CI p-value Gene
rs11133360 Chr4 55982752 0.45 579 1.15 (1.02,1.30) 0.02 KDR
Relative to TT carriers, HR for rs11133360 (SEQ ID NO. 5) CT rs was 1.15 (95% CI 1.02–
1.30, p=0.02). This means that each additional C allele was associated with 15% increase in risk
of progression or death.
l Survival Analysis
Analysis in the sub-group of patients treated with Bevacizumab
In association analysis for OS, 6/133 markers had p<0.05 in white treated subjects. One of these,
rs12505758 (SEQ ID NO. 2) is significant after roni adjustment for 158 tests. The marker
is an intronic SNP in KDR (Kinase Insert Domain Receptor; VEGFR2; FLK1) and it is in LD
31) with another intronic SNP, rs1531289 in the gene (source: HapMap release 22; the
marker not available in HapMap v3 release 2). The marker is not associated in white placebotreated
subjects therefore it may be said to have predictive as opposed to prognostic qualities. An
inspection of the forest plot e 7) shows that the effect is driven primarily by NO16966
(colorectal cancer) and BO17705 N; renal cancer). The effect is either weak or absent
in the other three s.
Marker Chr BP MAF N HR 95% CI p-value Gene
rs12505758 Chr4 55966898 0.12 581 1.50 (1.21, 1.86) 2.00E-04 KDR
Relative to TT carriers, HR for rs12505758 (SEQ ID NO. 2) TC carrier was (allelic HR 1.50,
95% CI 1.21–1.86 (, p=0.0002). This means that each additional C allele was associated with
50% increase in risk of death. No effects for rs12505758 (SEQ ID NO. 2) were seen in placebo
patients.
The Kaplan Meier plots show increasing estimated hazard ratio with increasing number of copies
of the minor allele (Figure 8).
Additional information on SNPs
Since the rs699946 (SEQ ID NO. 1) SNP is d in the VEGF promoter, we examined its
effect on VEGF-A expression in human plasma samples. We found that GG carriers have a 27%
increased median VEGF expression compared to AG and AA (wildtype) carriers. The minor
allele of rs699946 (SEQ ID NO. 1) was in linkage with the minor allele of rs699947 (D’ 0.98;
r2=0.23), which is r VEGF promoter SNP previously shown to ate with response to
bevacizumab therapy [Schneider et al, J Clin Oncol 2008 26:4672]. Furthermore, rs699946 (SEQ
ID NO. 1) is also in linkage with rs833058 (-6589 C>T), which emerged as the second hit in
VEGF for PFS in the meta-analysis (D’=0.95, r2=0.35).
Conclusion of additional ch: We demonstrated that the G allele of rs699946 (SEQ ID NO.
1) in the VEGF-A promoter is associated with an increased plasma VEGF-A expression and that
rs699946 (SEQ ID NO. 1) is in linkage with rs699947, another VEGF-A promoter SNP
previously shown to ate with response to bevacizumab by Schneider et al.
The rs11133360 (SEQ ID NO. 5) in VEGFR-2 is an intronic SNP located between the exons
that encode the extracellular domains of the VEGFR-2 protein. We found that HUVECs
gous for the minor C allele have sed proliferation upon VEGF stimulation
compared to CT and TT carriers. antly, rs11133360 is also in strong linkage with
rs2305948 (D’= 1), a nonsynonymous SNP that induces the Val297Ile tution and which
has been ed to affect the binding of VEGF to VEGFR-2.
Results Hypertension
The two SNPs g the strongest association (p<0.01) were: rs2305949 (SEQ ID NO. 3) in
KDR (allelic OR 0.93, 95% CI 0.88–0.98, p=0.0067), rs4444903 (SEQ ID NO. 4) in EGF (allelic
OR 1.06, 95% CI 1.02–1.11, p=0.0052); see table 4, but none of these surpassed the threshold for
multiple testing (p<0.0003). Interestingly, rs2305949 (SEQ ID NO. 3) and rs4444903 (SEQ ID
NO. 4) were y linked to amino acid changes occurring on position 273 and 708 of KDR
and EGF, suggesting that these changes may functionally affect both genes and thereby
contribute to hypertension.

rs2305949 (SEQ ID NO. 3) (KDR)
As shown in Figure 9, higher frequency of hypertension was seen for the CC carrier. Figure 10
shows that three studies, (NO16966, AVAIL/BO17704 and AVOREN/BO17705) drive the
association. The forest plot for white o-treated subjects (not shown) shows the mean effect
across studies is weakly in the opposite direction, so the marker may be concluded to have
predictive characteristics.
rs4444903 (SEQ ID NO. 4) (EGF)
As shown in Figure 11, higher frequency of hypertension was seen for the GA carrier, with
lowest frequency for the AA carriers, while the frequency of the GG carrier was in between. For
marker rs4444903 (SEQ ID NO. 4) in EGF, examination of the forest plot (Figure 12) shows
reasonable consistency across studies, with t effect observed inBO17708/ AVADO
t cancer). The forest plot for subjects in the placebo arm (not shown) shows that the marker
has tive as opposed to prognostic characteristics.
