1 Gene Expression Signatures for Prognosis in NSCLC, Coupled with Signatures of Oncogenic Pathway Deregulation, Provide a Novel Approach for Selection of Molecular Targets David H. Harpole, Jr., M.D. Professor of Surgery Duke University Medical Center Chief of Cardiothoracic Surgery Durham Veterans Affairs Medical Center Director of the Lung Cancer Prognostic Laboratory

2 The Challenge in Prognosis for Individual Patients Current Tools for Prognosis Clinical and histopathologic factors Single molecular biomarkers Gene expression profiles Staging Improved prognosis But, the challenge is to provide an individualized patient prognosis

3 Current Therapy for Clinical Stage I NSCLC Stage IA Stage IB, II and IIIA Adjuvant Chemotherapy (> 30% relapse)Observation (25% relapse) Resection Clinical Stage 1 (45,000 patients in U.S.) What next ? Identify Patients at Higher Risk? Higher Risk?

4 Current Therapy for Clinical Stage I NSCLC Stage IA Stage IB, II and IIIA Adjuvant Chemotherapy (> 30% relapse)Observation (25% relapse) Resection Clinical Stage 1 (45,000 patients in U.S.) Develop gene expression profiles that refine risk prediction
