20160097105 | METHOD FOR USING GENE EXPRESSION TO DETERMINE PROGNOSIS OF PROSTATE CANCER - Molecular assays that involve measurement of expression levels of prognostic biomarkers, or co-expressed biomarkers, from a biological sample obtained from a prostate cancer patient, and analysis of the measured expression levels to provide information concerning the likely prognosis for said patient, and likelihood that said patient will have a recurrence of prostate cancer, or to classify the tumor by likelihood of clinical outcome or TMPRSS2 fusion status, are provided herein. | 04-07-2016 |
20160048632 | GENE EXPRESSION PROFILE ALGORITHM FOR CALCULATING A RECURRENCE SCORE FOR A PATIENT WITH KIDNEY CANCER - The present invention provides algorithm-based molecular assays that involve measurement of expression levels of genes from a biological sample obtained from a kidney cancer patient. The present invention also provides methods of obtaining a quantitative score for a patient with kidney cancer based on measurement of expression levels of genes from a biological sample obtained from a kidney cancer patient. The genes may be grouped into functional gene subsets for calculating the quantitative score and the gene subsets may be weighted according to their contribution to cancer recurrence. | 02-18-2016 |
20150302143 | GENE FUSIONS AND ALTERNATIVELY SPLICED JUNCTIONS ASSOCIATED WITH BREAST CANCER - The present invention relates to gene fusions and alternative spliced junctions associated with breast cancer. The present invention also relates to novel methods of identifying gene fusions and alternative spliced junctions in RNA sequencing data. The present invention further relates to predicting prognosis of a breast cancer patient based on the number of gene fusion events. | 10-22-2015 |
20150299771 | METHODS FOR DEPLETING RNA FROM NUCLEIC ACID SAMPLES - The invention relates to methods of depleting RNA from a nucleic acid sample. The RNA may be any RNA, including, but not limited to, rRNA, tRNA, and mRNA. The method is useful for depleting RNA from a nucleic acid sample obtained from a fixed paraffin-embedded tissue (FPET) sample. The method may also be used to prepare cDNA, in particular, a cDNA library for further analysis or manipulation. | 10-22-2015 |
20140303002 | Gene Expression Profile Algorithm and Test for Determining Prognosis of Prostate Cancer - The present invention provides algorithm-based molecular assays that involve measurement of expression levels of genes, or their co-expressed genes, from a biological sample obtained from a prostate cancer patient. The genes may be grouped into functional gene subsets for calculating a quantitative score useful to predict a likelihood of a clinical outcome for a prostate cancer patient. | 10-09-2014 |
20140296085 | METHOD OF PREDICTING BREAST CANCER PROGNOSIS - The present invention relates to biomarkers associated with breast cancer prognosis. These biomarkers include coding transcripts and their expression products, as well as non-coding transcripts, and are useful for predicting the likelihood of breast cancer recurrence in a breast cancer patient, The present invention also relates to a novel method of identifying intergenic sequences that correlate with a clinical outcome. | 10-02-2014 |
20140287421 | GENE EXPRESSION MARKERS FOR BREAST CANCER PROGNOSIS - The present invention provides gene sets the expression of which is important in the diagnosis and/or prognosis of breast cancer. | 09-25-2014 |
20140206545 | GENE EXPRESSION MARKERS FOR PREDICTION OF PATIENT RESPONSE TO CHEMOTHERAPY - The present invention relates to gene sets useful in assessing prognosis and/or predicting the response of cancer, e.g. colorectal cancer to chemotherapy. In addition, the invention relates to a clinically validated cancer test, e.g. colorectal test, for assessment of prognosis and/or prediction of patient response to chemotherapy, using expression analysis. The present invention accommodates the use of archived paraffin embedded biopsy material for assay of all markers in the relevant gene sets and therefore is compatible with the most widely available type of biopsy material. | 07-24-2014 |
20130274127 | GENE EXPRESSION MARKERS FOR PREDICTION OF RESPONSE TO PHOSPHOINOSITIDE 3-KINASE INHIBITORS - The present invention provides methods for predicting a likelihood that a tumor cell will be sensitive or resistant to a phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K) inhibitor. The methods generally involve determining an expression level of a gene product that correlates with sensitivity or resistance to a PI3K inhibitor. The present invention also provides methods for increasing sensitivity of a tumor cell to a PI3K inhibitor by contacting the tumor cell with an activator or inhibitor of a gene product that correlates with sensitivity or resistance to a PI3K inhibitor. | 10-17-2013 |
20130196321 | Gene Expression Profile Algorithm and Test for Determining Prognosis of Prostate Cancer - The present invention provides algorithm-based molecular assays that involve measurement of expression levels of genes, or their co-expressed genes, from a biological sample obtained from a prostate cancer patient. The genes may be grouped into functional gene subsets for calculating a quantitative score useful to predict a likelihood of a clinical outcome for a prostate cancer patient. | 08-01-2013 |
20130102492 | GENE EXPRESSION MARKERS FOR COLORECTAL CANCER PROGNOSIS - A method of predicting clinical outcome in a subject diagnosed with colorectal cancer comprising determining evidence of the expression of one or more predictive RNA transcripts or their expression products in a biological sample of cancer cells obtained from the subject. | 04-25-2013 |
20120270228 | PREDICTORS OF PATIENT RESPONSE TO TREATMENT WITH EGF RECEPTOR INHIBITORS - The present invention provides methods and compositions to facilitate determining whether an EGFR-expressing cancer in an individual is an EGFR inhibitor-responsive cancer, as well as methods for determining the likelihood that a patient having an EGFR-expressing cancer will exhibit a beneficial response to an EGFR inhibitor therapy. The methods generally involve determining a normalized expression level of a gene product that correlates with EGFR inhibitor responsiveness. | 10-25-2012 |
