Methods for treating cancer, and preferably hematological malignancy, patients include analyzing gene expression profiles and/or molecular markers of a patient to determine status and/or prognosis of the patient. The invention also provides methods of analyzing whether a non-relapsed or non-refractory patient is likely to respond to treatment with farnesyl transferase inhibitors (FTIs) and, optionally, other therapeutics. The methods are also useful for monitoring patient therapy and for selecting a course of therapy. Genes modulated in response to FTI treatment are provided and are used in formulating the profiles.

L'invention concerne des procédés pour traiter le cancer et notamment des cas hématologiques malins, des patients comprenant l'analyse des profils d'expression génique et/ou les marqueurs moléculaires d'un patient afin de déterminer le statut et/ou le pronostic du patient. L'invention concerne aussi des procédés pour effectuer des analyses lorsqu'un patient sans rechutes ou non réfractaire est susceptible de réagir à un traitement avec des inhibiteurs de farnésyl transférase (FTI) et, éventuellement, avec d'autres produits thérapeutiques. Les procédés sont aussi utiles pour surveiller une thérapie de patient et pour sélectionner un cours de thérapie. Des gènes modulés en réponse au traitement avec FTI sont utilisés dans la formulation des profils.
