Zusammenfassung:The present disclosure provides diagnostic methods that are relevant to various cancers and which comprise improvements on a BH3 profiling diagnostic method. The methods are relevant for selecting a cancer treatment for a patient, comprising measurement of response to agents that perturb the MCL1 and BFL1 proteins in their function to sequester pro-apoptotic proteins using BH3 profiling of patient cancer cells and inclusion of one or more clinical features of the patient into a predictive algorithm to classify each patient's likelihood of clinical response to one or more cancer treatments that perturb the function of MCL1.
