Abstract

See full text

A method for assessment of the suitability of and/or effectiveness of a target therapy for a TNF-mediated-related disorder, such as severe or persistent asthma, in a subject evaluates the presence, absence, and/or magnitude of expression of one or more genes corresponding to contacting the sample with a panel of nucleic acid segments consisting of at least a portion of at least one member from the group consisting of the nucleotide sequences corresponding to at least one of TNFRSF1A SNP rs4149581 (SEQ ID NO:1), TNFRSF1 B SNP rs3766730 (SEQ ID NO:2) or TNFRSFI B SNP rs590977 (SEQ ID NO:3) SNPs which results in a determination that one or more of said SNPs in a sample are in linkage disequilibrium (LD). The method enables identification of the effectiveness of target therapies prior to or after starting a patient on such therapies.
