Abstract:
It has previously been demonstrated that positive 8F1 immunohistochemistry is an indicator of a poor cancer prognosis and poor response to chemotherapy. The 8F1 antibody was generated by immunization against ERCC1, a DNA repair protein, but recognizes a second, previously unidentified protein in cells and tissues. Disclosed herein is the finding that in addition to ERCC1, the 8F1 antibody recognizes the choline phosphate cytidylyltransferase-α (CCTα) protein. Thus, provided herein is a method of determining the prognosis of a patient with cancer by specifically detecting expression of CCTα in a sample obtained from the subject. Also provided is a method of predicting the response of a cancer patient to treatment with a genotoxic therapy by specifically detecting expression of CCTα in a sample obtained from the subject.
