摘要:
The invention provides methods for characterizing the condition or status of a tissue or organ in a multicellular organism, e.g., an animal, by combining a plurality of clinical measures are combined into a composite clinical score (CCS) and using such a CCS to represent the condition or status of the tissue or organ. The invention provides methods for predicting the condition or status of a tissue or organ in a multicellular organism, e.g., an animal, based on measurements of a set of cellular constituent markers, e.g., measured expression levels of a set of marker genes. The invention also provides methods for selecting the set of marker genes whose expression levels can be used in determining the CCS.
摘要:
The present invention provides prognostic methods for conditions such as cancer, for example, breast cancer, comprising classifying an individual by a plurality of phenotypic, genotypic or clinical characteristics of the condition into a plurality of patient subsets, and analyzing the pattern of expression of prognosis-informative genes identified for that subset in a sample from the individual. The present invention also provides methods for constructing such patient subsets and of identifying prognosis-informative genesets for such subsets. The invention further provides methods of assigning a therapeutic regimen to an individual, microarrays useful for performing prognosis, kits comprising these microarrays, and computer systems and programs for implementing the methods of the invention.
摘要:
The present invention relates to sets of genetic markers whose expression is correlated with prognosis of breast cancer in individuals having breast cancer. Specifically, the invention provides sets of markers whose expression patterns can be used to differentiate individuals having a good prognosis, e.g., no reoccurrence or metastasis within five years of initial diagnosis, and individuals having a poor prognosis, e.g., reoccurrence or metastasis within five years of initial diagnosis. The invention relates to methods of prognosis using these markers. The invention also relates to microarrays containing probes to these markers, and to kits containing ready-to-use microarrays and computer software for data analysis using the prognostic and statistical methods disclosed herein.

The present invention relates to genetic markers whose expression is correlated with progression of CML. Specifically, the invention provides sets of markers whose expression patterns can be used to differentiate chronic phase individuals from those in blast crisis. The invention relates to methods of using these markers to distinguish these conditions. The invention also relates to kits containing ready-to-use microarrays and computer software for data analysis using the statistical methods disclosed herein.
摘要:
The present invention relates to genetic markers whose expression is correlated with breast cancer. Specifically, the invention provides sets of markers whose expression patterns can be used to differentiate clinical conditions associated with breast cancer, such as the presence or absence of the estrogen receptor ESR1, and BRCA1 and sporadic tumors, and to provide information on the likelihood of tumor distant metastases within five years of initial diagnosis. The invention relates to methods of using these markers to distinguish these conditions. The invention also relates to kits containing ready-to-use microarrays and computer software for data analysis using the statistical methods disclosed herein.
