摘要:
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.
摘要:
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.

摘要:
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.
摘要:
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.

摘要:
The invention concerns sensitive methods to measure mRNA levels in biopsied tumor tissues, including archived paraffin-embedded biopsy material. The invention also concerns breast cancer gene sets important in the diagnosis and treatment of breast cancer, and methods for assigning the most optimal treatment options to breast cancer patient based upon knowledge derived from gene expression studies.
摘要:
The present invention concerns prognostic markers associated with EGFR positive cancer. In particular, the invention concerns prognostic methods based on the molecular characterization of gene expression in paraffin-embedded, fixed tissue samples of EGFR-expressing cancer, which allow a physician to predict whether a patient is likely to respond well to treatment with an EGFR inhibitor.
摘要:
The present invention provides a noninvasive, quantitative test for prognosis determination in cancer patients. The test relies on measurements of the tumor levels of certain messenger RNAs (mRNAs). These mRNA levels are inserted into a polynomial formula (algorithm) that yields a numerical recurrence score, which indicates recurrence risk.
