Abstract
Provided herein are methods of treating cancer in a patient with a tyrosine kinase inhibitor. The method comprises: a) measuring the expression level of a protein kinase in a sample obtained from the patient; b) comparing the expression level of the protein kinase to a corresponding reference expression level; c) determining a likelihood of the patient being responsive to the tyrosine kinase inhibitor; and d) treating the patient whose expression level of the protein kinase indicates that the patient will be responsive with the tyrosine kinase inhibitor.
Claims19
A method for treating cancer in a patient with a tyrosine kinase inhibitor, the method comprising:
- a) measuring the expression level of a first protein kinase in a sample obtained from the patient;
- b) comparing the expression level of the first protein kinase to a corresponding reference expression level;

- wherein the tyrosine kinase inhibitor is a compound of formula (I) or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof
- wherein:
- R1 is hydrogen, C1-6 alkyl, C1-6 haloalkyl halo or cyano;
- M is CH or N;
