The invention provides methods, nucleic acids, compositions and kits for predicting a subject's response to treatment with activated protein C or protein C like compound to identify subjects having a greater benefit from treatment with activated protein C. The method generally comprises determining a protein C pathway associated gene polymorphism genotype(s) of a subject for one or more polymorphisms in the these genes, comparing the determined genotype with known genotypes for the polymorphism that correspond with an improved response polymorphism to identify potential subjects having an inflammatory condition who are more likely to benefit from treatment with activated protein C or protein C like compound and subsequent to treatment recover from the inflammatory condition. The invention also provides for methods of treating such subjects with an anti-inflammatory agent or anti- coagulant agent based on the subject's genotype.

L'invention concerne des procédés, des acides nucléiques, des compositions et des kits servant à prédire la réponse d'un sujet à un traitement avec la protéine C activée ou un composé apparenté à la protéine C pour identifier les sujets tirant un plus grand bénéfice d'un traitement avec la protéine C activée. Le procédé consiste d'une façon générale à déterminer un ou plusieurs génotypes de polymorphismes génétiques associés à la voie de la protéine C d'un sujet pour un ou plusieurs polymorphismes dans ces gènes, à comparer le génotype déterminé aux génotypes connus pour le polymorphisme qui correspond à un polymorphisme de réponse améliorée pour identifier les sujets potentiels souffrant d'une affection inflammatoire qui sont plus susceptibles de bénéficier du traitement avec la protéine C activée ou un composé apparenté à la protéine C et de guérir de l'affection inflammatoire à la suite du traitement. L'invention concerne également des procédés de traitement de tels sujets avec un agent anti-inflammatoire ou un agent anticoagulant sur la base du génotype du sujet.
