Infiltrating immune cell proportions predict anti-TNF response in colon biopsies

Provided are methods of predicting responsiveness of a subject having an inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) to a tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha inhibitor, by analyzing a frequency of at least one subpopulation of immune cells in a tissue biopsy of the subject. Also provided are methods of selecting...

Zusammenfassung:Provided are methods of predicting responsiveness of a subject having an inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) to a tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha inhibitor, by analyzing a frequency of at least one subpopulation of immune cells in a tissue biopsy of the subject. Also provided are methods of selecting a treatment for a subject and kits for determining responsiveness of the subject to treatment with a TNF-alpha inhibitor.
