摘要:
The invention features methods of diagnosis by assessing B7-H1 expression in a tissue from a subject that has, or is suspected of having, cancer, methods of treatment with agents that interfere with B7-H1-receptor interaction, methods of selecting candidate subjects likely to benefit from cancer immunotherapy, and methods of inhibiting expression of B7-H1.

This document provides methods and materials involved in treating cancer. For example, methods and materials for identifying a mammal as having an elevated level of PD-1+/CD11ahigh CD8 T cells having the potential to exert anti-cancer effects are provided. In addition, methods and materials for identifying a mammal as having an elevated level of PD-1+/CD11ahigh CD8 T cells and administering a PD-1 inhibitor to such a mammal are provided.

摘要:
Materials and methods for treating cancer especially in patients identified as having elevated levels of Bim are disclosed. Specifically, the disclosure provides a method for treating a mammal having cancer, the method comprises: (a) identifying said mammal as containing an elevated level of Bim, and (b) administering to said mammal an anti-B7-H1 antibody, an anti-PD-1 antibody, an anti-CD80 antibody, or a fusion protein comprising a portion of PD 1 or a portion of CD80, under conditions wherein the interaction of naturally occurring B7-H1 with PD-1 or CD80 in said mammal is reduced after said administering.
