System and method for determining an immune activation state
A system or method for detecting an immune system activation state in a patient can include a sample preparation system configured to isolate white blood cells from a sample of the patient, a cytometry module configured to determine biophysical properties of the white blood cells of the sample, and an analysis module configured to analyze the biophysical properties.
MICROSIMULATION OF MULTI-CANCER EARLY DETECTION EFFECTS USING PARALLEL PROCESSING AND INTEGRATION OF FUTURE INTERCEPTED INCIDENCES OVER TIME
A simulation system performs microsimulations to model the impact of one or more early cancer detection screenings for a plurality of participants to simulate a randomized controlled trial (RCT). In one instance, the microsimulations are performed using parallel processing techniques. The microsimulation simulates the impact of early detection screenings on individual trajectories of the participants. In particular, while most screening modalities are for single cancer types, the microsimulation herein simulates the effect of a detection model on individual trajectories for participant populations having multiple types of cancer using, for example, multi-cancer early detection (MCED) screenings that are capable of detecting multiple types of cancer.

DEEP LEARNING-BASED USE OF PROTEIN CONTACT MAPS FOR VARIANT PATHOGENICITY PREDICTION
The technology disclosed relates to a variant pathogenicity classifier. The variant pathogenicity classifier comprises memory and runtime logic. The memory stores (i) a reference amino acid sequence of a protein, (ii) an alternative amino acid sequence of the protein that contains a variant amino acid caused by a variant nucleotide, and (iii) a protein contact map of the protein. The runtime logic has access to the memory, and is configured to provide (i) the reference amino acid sequence, (ii) the alternative amino acid sequence, and (iii) the protein contact map as input to a first neural network, and to cause the first neural network to generate a pathogenicity indication of the variant amino acid as output in response to processing (i) the reference amino acid sequence, (ii) the alternative amino acid sequence, and (iii) the protein contact map.

Forecasting bacterial survival-success and adaptive evolution through multiomics stress-response mapping and machine learning
The present disclosure provides a novel integrated entropy-based method that combines genome-wide profiling and network analyses for diagnostic and prognostic applications. The present disclosure further provides the integration of multiomics datasets, network analyses and machine learning that enable predictions on diagnosing infectious diseases and predicting the probability that they will escape treatment/the host immune system and/or become antibiotic resistant. The present disclosure provides a primary gateway towards the development of highly accurate infectious disease prognostics.
COPD Biomarker Signatures
The present invention relates to methods of detecting differentially expressed protein expression indicative of COPD in a test sample. The detection of circulating levels of proteins within an identified COPD biomarker signature can aid in COPD diagnosis and disease monitoring, as well as in the prediction of responses to therapeutics. Evaluation of the biomarker signatures disclosed, or a subset of biomarkers thereof, provides a level of discrimination not found with individual markers.
MIRNA-BASED PREDICTIVE MODELS FOR DIAGNOSIS AND PROGNOSIS OF PROSTATE CANCER
The lack of clear predictors of prostate cancer progression leads to subjective decision-making regarding courses of treatment. The identification of new biomarkers that are predictive of recurrence after radical prostatectomy would advance the field of prostate cancer treatment. Disclosed are miRNAs that can be used as molecular biomarkers to detect or predict the progression of prostate cancer and to adjust a treatment plan accordingly. Furthermore, kits are included for the detection of these miRNAs.
Systems and Methods for Response Prediction to Chemotherapy in High Grade Bladder Cancer
Contemplated systems and methods allow for prediction of chemotherapy outcome for patients diagnosed with high-grade bladder cancer. In particularly preferred aspects, the prediction is performed using a model based on machine learning wherein the model has a minimum predetermined accuracy gain and wherein a thusly identified model provides the identity and weight factors for omics data used in the outcome prediction.

Gene expression data provides a basis for more accurate identification and diagnosis of lymphoproliferative disorders. In addition, gene expression data can be used to develop more accurate predictors of survival. The present invention discloses methods for identifying, diagnosing, and predicting survival in a lymphoma or lymphoproliferative disorder on the basis of gene expression patterns. The invention discloses a novel microarray, the Lymph Dx microarray, for obtaining gene expression data from a lymphoma sample. The invention also discloses a variety of methods for utilizing lymphoma gene expression data to determine the identity of a particular lymphoma and to predict survival in a subject diagnosed with a particular lymphoma. This information will be useful in developing the therapeutic approach to be used with a particular subject.
