The present invention relates to a method for predicting a treatment response to a corticotropin releasing hormone receptor type 1 (CRHR1) antagonist and/or a vasopressin receptor 1B (V1B) antagonist in a patient with depressive and/or anxiety symptoms. The present invention furthermore relates to a V1B receptor antagonist and/or CRHR1 antagonist for use in the treatment of depressive symptoms and/or anxiety symptoms in a patient. Also, kits, diagnostic compositions, devices and microarrays allowing the determination of the presence or absence of at least one polymorphic variant in the AVPR1B gene in combination with the presence or absence of at least one polymorphic variant in the patient's genome excluding the AVPR1B gene in the nucleic acid sample are described.
本发明涉及一种预测抑郁和/或焦虑症状患者对促肾上腺皮质激素释放激素受体1型(CRHR1)拮抗剂和/或血管加压素受体1B(V1B)拮抗剂的治疗反应的方法。本发明还涉及用于治疗患者抑郁症状和/或焦虑症状的V1B受体拮抗剂和/或CRHR1拮抗剂。此外,本发明还描述了试剂盒、诊断组合物、装置和微阵列,这些试剂盒、诊断组合物、装置和微阵列可结合核酸样本中患者基因组中排除 AVPR1B 基因的至少一种多态变体的存在与否来确定 AVPR1B 基因中至少一种多态变体的存在与否。
