    Abstract: A method and system for predicting in advance of treatment whether a cancer patient is likely, or not likely, to obtain benefit from administration of a yeast-based immune response generating therapy, which may be yeast-based immunotherapy for mutated Ras-based cancer, alone or in combination with another anti-cancer therapy. The method uses mass spectrometry of a blood-derived patient sample and a computer configured as a classifier using a training set of class-labeled spectra from other cancer patients that either benefited or did not benefit from an immune response generating therapy alone or in combination with another anti-cancer therapy. Also disclosed are methods of treatment of a cancer patient, comprising administering a yeast-based immune response generating therapy, which may be yeast-based immunotherapy for mutated Ras-based cancer, to a patient selected by a test in accordance with predictive mass spectral methods disclosed herein, in which the class label for the spectra indicates the patient is likely to benefit from the yeast-based immunotherapy.

    Abstract: A classifier and method for predicting or characterizing graft-versus-host disease in a patient after receiving a transplant of pluripotent hematopoietic stem cells or bone marrow. The classifier operates on mass-spectral data obtained from a blood-based sample of the patient and is configured as a combination of filtered mini-classifiers using a regularized combination method, such as logistic regression with extreme drop-out. The method also uses a “deep-MALDI” mass spectrometry technique in which the blood-based samples are subject to at least 100,000 laser shots in MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry in order to reveal greater spectral content and detect low abundance proteins circulating in serum associated with graft-versus-host disease.

    Abstract: Classifier generation methods are described in which features used in classification (e.g., mass spectral peaks) are selected, or deselected using bagged filtering. A development sample set is split into two subsets, one of which is used as a training set the other of which is set aside. We define a classifier (e.g., K-nearest neighbor, decision tree, margin-based classifier or other) using the training subset and at least one of the features (or subsets of two or more features in combination). We apply the classifier to a subset of samples. A filter is applied to the performance of the classifier on the sample subset and the at least one feature is added to a “filtered feature list” if the classifier performance passes the filter. We do this for many different realizations of the separation of the development sample set into two subsets, and, for each realization, different features or sets of features in combination. After all the iterations are performed the filtered feature list is used to either select features, or deselect features, for a final classifier.

    Abstract: Methods using mass spectral data analysis and a classification algorithm provide an ability to determine whether a solid epithelial tumor cancer patient is likely to benefit from a therapeutic agent or a combination of therapeutic agents targeting agonists of the receptors, receptors or proteins involved in MAPK (mitogen-activated protein kinase) pathways or the PKC (protein kinase C) pathway upstream from or at Akt or ERK/JNK/p38 or PKC, such as therapeutic agents targeting EGFR and/or HER2. The methods also provide the ability to determine whether the cancer patient is likely to benefit from the combination of a therapeutic agent targeting EFGR and a therapeutic agent targeting COX2; or whether the cancer patient is likely to benefit from the treatment with an NF-κB inhibitor.

    Abstract: A testing method for identification whether a cancer patient is a member of a group or class of cancer patients that are not likely to benefit from administration of a platinum-based chemotherapy agent, e.g., cisplatin, carboplatin or analogs thereof, either alone or in combination with other non-platinum chemotherapy agents, e.g., gemcitabine and paclitaxel. This identification can be made in advance of treatment. The method uses a mass spectrometer obtaining a mass spectrum of a blood-based sample from the patient, and a computer operating as a classifier and using a stored training set comprising class-labeled spectra from other cancer patients.
