The present invention provides diagnostic and therapeutic methods and compositions for cancer. The invention provides methods of determining whether an individual having a cancer is likely to respond to treatment comprising a pan-RAF dimer inhibitor and a MEK or PI3K inhibitor, methods of predicting responsiveness of an individual having a cancer to treatment comprising a pan-RAF dimer inhibitor and a MEK or PI3K inhibitor, methods of selecting a therapy for an individual having a cancer, and methods of treating an individual having cancer based on the presence of a biomarker of the invention (e.g., a KRAS activating mutation, e.g., a KRAS-G13D mutation, or an NRAS activating mutation).
A method of treating an individual having a cancer, the method comprising:
A method of treating an individual having a cancer, the method comprising administering to the individual a therapeutically effective amount of a pan-RAF dimer inhibitor and a MEK inhibitor, wherein prior to treatment a sample from the individual has been screened for an NRAS activating mutation and the presence of an NRAS activating mutation in the sample has been determined.
