Comprehensive molecular profiling provides a wealth of data concerning the molecular status of patient samples. Such data can be compared to patient response to treatments to identify biomarker signatures that predict response or non-response to such treatments. This approach has been applied to identify biomarker signatures that correlate with response of cancer patients to platinum-based chemotherapy. Described herein are data structures, data processing, and machine learning models to predict a probability of benefit of a treatment for a disease or disorder of a subject having a particular set of biomarkers, as well as an exemplary application of such a model to precision medicine, e.g., to methods for selecting a treatment based on a molecular profile, e.g., a treatment comprising platinum therapy.
