20100240043 | METHODS OF USING GENETIC VARIANTS TO DIAGNOSE AND PREDICT INFLAMMATORY BOWEL DISEASE - The present invention relates to methods of diagnosing susceptibility to Inflammatory Bowel Disease and subtypes of Inflammatory Bowel Disease. In one embodiment, the present invention provides a method of diagnosing susceptibility to Inflammatory Bowel Disease by determining the presence of one or more risk variants at the DR3 locus, GATA3 locus, SIN(EFS) locus, BTLA locus, LIGHT locus and MAGE locus. | 09-23-2010 |
20110177969 | THE ROLE OF IL17RD AND THE IL23-1L17 PATHWAY IN CROHN'S DISEASE - The present invention relates to methods of diagnosing susceptibility to Crohn's Diseaese by determining the presence or absence of susceptibility variants at the IL17RD locus. in one embodiment, the present invention provides a method of diagnosing and/or predicting susceptibility to Crohn's Disease by determining the presence or absence of an interaction between IL17RD Block 2 Haplotype 2 and IL23R Block 2 Haplotype 2 and/or IL12RB2 Haplotype 4, where the presence of an interaction between IL17RD Block 2 Haplotype 2 and IL23R Block 2 Haplotype 2 and/or IL12RB2 Haplotype 4 is indicative of susceptibility to Crohn's Disease. | 07-21-2011 |
20120190698 | METHODS OF PREDICTING THIOPURINE RESPONSE - The present invention relates to methods of predicting therapeutic efficacy of thiopurines in an individual by determining the presence of one or more risk variants. In one embodiment, the effective therapeutic efficacy of thiopurines is determined by the presence of risk variants at the genetic loci of HLA-DRB1, CREM, TAGAP, PLCL1, GPX4, SBNO2, MEF2A and/or LYSMD4. In another embodiment, the risk variants are located at the genetic loci of ARL4C, IL1R2, JAK2, 19q13, CARD9, SNAPC4, and/or 8q24. In another embodiment, the individual is has been diagnosed with inflammatory bowel disease. | 07-26-2012 |
20120208900 | METHODS OF PREDICTING THE NEED FOR SURGERY IN CROHN'S DISEASE - The present invention relates to methods of predicting susceptibility to a severe form of Crohn's disease in an individual by determining the presence or absence of one or more risk variants. In one embodiment, the risk variants comprise a combination of genetic risk variants and clinical risk factors. In another embodiment, the genetic risk variants are at the IL12B genetic locus. In another embodiment, the severe form of Crohn's disease is characterized by a rapid progression to a condition requiring surgery for treatment. | 08-16-2012 |
20130136720 | METHODS OF USING FUT2 GENETIC VARIANTS TO DIAGNOSE CROHN'S DISEASE - The present invention relates to prognosing, diagnosing and treating of Crohn's disease. The invention also provides prognosis, diagnosis, and treatment that are based upon the presence of one or more genetic risk factors at the FUT2 genetic locus. | 05-30-2013 |
20140017711 | METHODS OF DIAGNOSING ULCERATIVE COLITIS AND CROHN'S DISEASE - The present invention relates to methods of prognosing inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) in an individual by determining the presence of at least one risk genetic variant and/or at least one risk serological marker. In one embodiment, the presence of risk serological marker ANCA is indicative of an aggressive form of ulcerative colitis. In another embodiment, the present invention relates to methods of diagnosing a Crohn's disease subtype in an individual, where the presence of risk variants and serological markers I2, OmpC and/or Cbir1 are indicative of the Crohn's disease subtype. | 01-16-2014 |
20140018447 | METHODS OF DIAGNOSING AND TREATING INTESTINAL GRANULOMAS AND LOW BONE DENSITY IN INFLAMMATORY BOWEL DISEASE - The present invention relates to methods of diagnosing inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) in an individual by determining the presence of at least one risk genetic variant and/or at least one risk serological marker. In one embodiment, the presence of at least one risk genetic variant is indicative of granuloma. In another embodiment, the presence of at least one risk genetic variant is indicative of low bone density (LBD). | 01-16-2014 |
20150337378 | METHODS OF DIAGNOSIS AND TREATMENT OF INFLAMMATORY BOWEL DISEASE - The present invention relates to methods of diagnosing and predicting susceptibility to Crohn's Disease and/or IBD, by determining the presence or absence of susceptibility to genetic variants, risk haplotypes and/or protective haplotypes. In an embodiment, the invention provides methods of diagnosing and/or predicting susceptibility to Crohn's Disease in an individual by determining the presence or absence of risk variants at the IL12RB1, IL12RB2, IL17A, IL17RA, IL17RD and/or IL23R locus. | 11-26-2015 |
