Abstract:
A method is provided that allows a subject to be diagnosed as having one of a variety of hypertensive states, including pre-eclampsia, based on the measurement of a plurality of factors including the level of soluble fms-like tyrosine kinase 1 (sFlt-1), an obesity factor and optionally one or more additional factors, which may be physiological parameters or biomarkers. The method can be used to determine hypertensive states associated with pregnancy, or associated with anti-angiogenic drug therapy. The method is thus useful for diagnosing the hypertensive status of pregnant women, as well as patients undergoing anti-angiogenic treatment (e.g., chemotherapy).

Abstract:
The present disclosure relates to, among other things, methods for determining whether a subject receiving treatment with a drug has obtained an efficacious blood level of the drug. Moreover, the present disclosure also relates to methods of determining whether a subject predisposed to or suffering from a disease will benefit from treatment with a drug, and the response of a subject receiving treatment (e.g., such as for cancer) by monitoring biomarkers of angiogenesis. In particular, the disclosure relates to P/GF-1 companion diagnostic methods and products.
Abstract:
Method of measuring the quantity of a first proteinaceous specific binding partner (sbp) in a biological sample comprising detecting the binding of the first proteinaceous sbp with a labeled second proteinaceous sbp, wherein neither the first or second sbp is an antibody or fragment thereof, which is preferably a method of determining the amount of sFlt-1, particularly free sFlt-1, and the amount of PlGF, particularly free PlGF, in a sample, which is preferably used in a method of predicting risk of preeclampsia comprising comparing free PlGF to free sFlt-1.
Abstract:
The present disclosure relates to glycosylated and deglycosylated human PlGF-1, methods of using the glycosylated and deglycosylated human PlGF-1, antibodies that bind to human PlGF-1, methods of using the antibodies and human PlGF-1 immunoassays and kits.
