Zusammenfassung:The present invention is directed to methods and kits based, at least in part, on the identification of allele-specific responsiveness or non-responsiveness to glatiramer acetate for the treatment of autoimmune disorders, such as relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis. The allele-specific responsiveness or non-responsiveness is based on polymorphisms in the following genes, CTSS, MBP, TCRB, CD95, CD86, IL-1R1, CD80, SCYA5, MMP9, MOG, SPP1 and IL-12RB2.
