CLASSIFICATION OF TUMOR MICROENVIRONMENTS

The disclosure provides population and non-population-based classifiers to categorize patients and cancers. The population-based classifiers disclosed integrate signatures, i.e., global scores related to the expression of genes in particular gene panels. The non-population-based classifiers are generated using machine-learning techniques (e.g., regression, random forests, or ANN). Each type of classifier stratifies patients and cancers according to tumor microenvironments (TME) as biomarker-positive or biomarker-negative, and treatment decisions are then guided by the presence/absence of a particular TME. Also provided are methods for treating a subject, e.g., a human subject, afflicted with cancer comprising administering a particular therapy depending on the classification of the cancer's TME according to the disclosed classifiers. Also provided are personalized treatments that can be administered to a subject having a cancer classified into a particular TME, and gene panels that can be used for identifying a human subject afflicted with a cancer suitable for treatment with a particular therapeutic agent..
