摘要:
The present invention relates to methods for identifying among the genes that are down-regulated in cells or tissues having disease including cancer, the CpG sites within the CpG islands of said genes, wherein the identified CpG sites show great potential for diagnostic utility. In another aspect, the present invention also provides methods of using the selected CpG sites for purposes of diagnosis, prognosis, staging, assessing or monitoring the therapy of or recovery from a disease such as cancer.

摘要:
The present invention provides methods for analyzing a combination of biomarkers to individualize tyrosine kinase inhibitor therapy in patients who have been diagnosed with cancer. In particular, the assay methods of the present invention are useful for predicting, identifying, or monitoring the response of a tumor, tumor cell, or patient to treatment with a tyrosine kinase inhibitor using an algorithm based upon biomarker profiling. The assay methods of the present invention are also useful for predicting whether a patient has a risk of developing toxicity or resistance to treatment with a tyrosine kinase inhibitor. In addition, the assay methods of the present invention are useful for monitoring tyrosine kinase inhibitor therapy in a patient receiving the drug to evaluate whether the patient will develop resistance to the drug. Furthermore, the assay methods of the present invention are useful for optimizing the dose of a tyrosine kinase inhibitor in a patient receiving the drug to achieve therapeutic efficacy and/or reduce toxic side-effects.

摘要:
The present invention relates to detecting the relative methylation levels at one or more CpG sites on a nucleic acid molecule, by using the methylation specific primer extension reaction (MSPE). MSPE uses an agent to modify unmethylated cytosine at a CpG site to uracil and subsequently amplify the chemically treated nucleic acids. The MSPE primers distinguishing between unmethylated and methylated CpG sites are provided to conduct MSPE. Relative methylation levels at one or more CpG sites are performed by detecting the signal intensity of labels incorporated into the MSPE reaction products.
