The present invention provides diagnostic methods for predicting the effectiveness of treatment of an hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) patient with an IGF-IR kinase inhibitor. Methods are provided for predicting the sensitivity of HCC tumor cell growth to inhibition by an IGF-IR kinase inhibitor, by assessing whether the HCC tumor cells express a high level of AFP, or whether serum levels of AFP protein are high. Methods are also provided for predicting the sensitivity of HCC tumor cell growth to inhibition by an IGF-IR kinase inhibitor, by assessing the EMT status of the HCC cells. The present invention thus provides methods of identifying patients with hepatocellular carcinoma who are most likely to benefit from treatment with an IGF-IR kinase inhibitor. The present invention also provides diagnostic methods for predicting the effectiveness of treatment of HCC cancer patients with IGF-IR kinase inhibitors, based on a determination of the expression level of IR, IGF -2, IGFBP3 or IGFBP7 in HCC tumor cells, or a 4-gene index calculated using the HCC expression vales for each of these four genes, which can be used to identify HCC tumors that will be sensitive to IGF-IR kinase inhibitors, and also those that will be insensitive. The latter methods are also expected to be effective for other cancer types. Improved methods for treating cancer patients with IGF-IR kinase inhibitors that incorporate the above methods are also provided.
The present invention provides a method for treating tumors or tumor metastases in a patient, comprising administering to said patient simultaneously or sequentially a therapeutically effective amount of a combination of an EGFR kinase inhibitor and an agent that sensitizes tumor cells to the effects of EGFR kinase inhibitors, wherein said agent is an mTOR inhibitor that binds to and directly inhibits both mTORC1 and mTORC2 kinases. The present invention also provides a pharmaceutical composition comprising an EGFR kinase inhibitor and an mTOR inhibitor that binds to and directly inhibits both mTORC1 and mTORC2 kinases, in a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier. A preferred example of an EGFR kinase inhibitor that can be used in practicing the methods of this invention is the compound erlotinib HC1 (also known as TARCEVA®).
The present invention provides diagnostic and prognostic methods for predicting the effectiveness of treatment of a cancer patient with an EGFR kinase inhibitor. Methods are provided for predicting the sensitivity of tumor cell growth to inhibition by an EGFR kinase inhibitor, comprising assessing whether the tumor cell has undergone an epithelial to mesenchymal transition (EMT), by determining the expression level of epithelial and/or mesenchymal biomarkers, wherein tumor cells that have undergone an EMT are substantially less sensitive to inhibition by EGFR kinase inhibitors. Improved methods for treating cancer patients with EGFR kinase inhibitors that incorporate the above methodology are also provided. Additionally, methods are provided for the identification of new biomarkers that are predictive of responsiveness of tumors to EGFR kinase inhibitors. Furthermore, methods for the identification of agents that restore the sensitivity of tumor cells that have undergone EMT to inhibition by EGFR kinase inhibitors are also provided.

BIOLOGICAL MARKERS PREDICTIVE OF ANTI-CANCER RESPONSE TO EPIDERMAL GROWTH FACTOR RECEPTOR KINASE INHIBITORS
The present invention provides diagnostic methods for predicting the effectiveness of treatment of a cancer patient with an EGFR kinase inhibitor. These methods are based on the surprising discovery that the effectiveness of treatment with an EGFR kinase inhibitor is predicted by whether a patient's tumor cells express a high or a low level of the biomarkers vimentin and E-cadherin, such that patients whose tumors express a high level of at least one of the biomarkers vimentin and E-cadherin have a longer overall survival and progression free survival than patients whose tumors express a low level of both vimentin and E-cadherin. The present invention further provides a method for treating tumors or tumor metastases in a patient, comprising the steps of diagnosing a patient's likely responsiveness to an EGFR kinase inhibitor by assessing whether tumor cells express a high level of at least one of the biomarkers vimentin and E-cadherin, and administering to said patient a therapeutically effective amount of an EGFR kinase inhibitor (e.g. erlotinib), particularly when effectiveness of the inhibitor is predicted.
A method of treating cancer comprising: (a) identifying a patient having cancer that initially responded to IRS1 agent therapy and that has resumed progression; (b) administering an effective regimen comprising the same or a different IRS1 agent and an IGF-1 R inhibitor administered together or sequentially.
The invention provides methods of determining in situ the EMT status of the cells of a tumor in a patient in vivo, including :(a) providing an EMT-status-detecting conjugate containing an antibody that binds to an EMT-status biomarker, and a reporter molecule; (b) introducing the conjugate into a patient with a tumor, such that the conjugate contacts the EMT-status biomarker of of the cells of the tumor; (c) employing a means for detection of the signal from the conjugate at the tumor site; and (d) using a means for image analysis to localize and quantify the signal from the conjugate at the tumor site, a positive signal indicating the presence of epithelial tumor cells if the EMT-status biomarker is an epithelial biomarker, and mesenchymal tumor cells if the EMT-status biomarker is a mesenchymal biomarker. Such methods are useful for diagnosing patients who might benefit from treatment with drugs such as EGFR or IGF-IR kinase inhibitors, and for identifying and testing agents that inhibit tumor cells from undergoing an epithelial to mesenchymal transition. This invention also provides the above methods where an AFFIBOD Y® molecule that binds to an EMT-status biomarker is used instead of an antibody.
The present invention provides tumor cell preparations for use as models of the EMT process for use in the identification of anti-cancer agents, wherein said tumor cell preparations comprise cells of the epithelial tumor cell line H1650, which are stimulated by receptor ligands to induce EMT, or which have been engineered to inducibly express a protein that stimulates EMT. The present invention also provides methods of identifying potential anti-cancer agents by using such tumor cell preparations to identify agents that inhibit EMT, stimulate MET, or inhibit the growth of mesenchymal-like cells. Such agents should be particularly useful when used in conjunction with other anti-cancer drugs such as EGFR and IGF-1R kinase inhibitors, which appear to be less effective at inhibiting tumor cells that have undergone an EMT.

The present invention provides tumor cell preparations for use as models of the EMT process for use in the identification of anti-cancer agents, wherein said tumor cell preparations comprise cells of the epithelial tumor cell line H292, which are stimulated by receptor ligands to induce EMT, or which have been engineered to inducibly express a protein that stimulates EMT. The present invention also provides methods of identifying potential anti-cancer agents by using such tumor cell preparations to identify agents that inhibit EMT, stimulate MET, or inhibit the growth of mesenchymal-like cells. Such agents should be particularly useful when used in conjunction with other anti-cancer drugs such as EGFR and IGF-IR kinase inhibitors, which appear to be less effective at inhibiting tumor cells that have undergone an EMT.
