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 invention relates to methods of determining a colorectal tumor stage in a patient by gene expression analysis. The method comprises assaying the level of at least one RNA transcript, or its expression product, which is correlated to colorectal tumor stage. The invention may be useful for determining whether a patient has stage II or stage III colorectal cancer.
摘要:
The present disclosure provides gene and gene sets, the expression of which is important in the classification and/or prognosis of cancer, in particular of renal cell carcinoma.
摘要:
The present invention relates to genes, the expression levels of which are correlated with likelihood of breast cancer recurrence in patients after tumor resection and chemotherapy.

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.
摘要:
The present invention concerns the treatment of disorders characterized by the overexpression of ErbB2. More specifically, the invention concerns the treatment of human patients susceptible to or diagnosed with cancer overexpressing ErbB2 with anti-ErbB2 antibody.
摘要:
The present invention provides gene expression information useful for predicting whether a cancer patient is likely to have a beneficial response to treatment with chemotherapy, comprising measuring, in a biological sample comprising a breast tumor sample obtained from the patient, the expression levels of gene subsets to obtain a risk score associated with a likelihood of a beneficial response to chemotherapy, wherein the score comprises at least one of the following variables: (i) Recurrence Score, (ii) ESRI Group Score; (iii) Invasion Group Score; (iv) Proliferation Group Score; and (v) the expression level of the RNA transcript of at least one of MYBL2 and SCUBE2, or the corresponding expression product. The invention further comprises a molecular assay-based algorithm to calculate the likelihood that the patient will have a beneficial response to chemotherapy based on the risk score.
