METHOD FOR TREATING AND PROGNOSING CANCER

The present invention relates to an in vitro method for determine the prognosis of the survival time of a patient suffering from a cancer comprising the steps consisting of i) determining the expression level of the couple DNMT3A/ISGF3 in a sample from said patient, ii) comparing said expression level with a predetermined reference value and iii) providing a good prognosis when the expression level is lower than the predetermined reference value and a poor prognosis when the expression level is higher than the predetermined reference value.

The invention also relates a compound which is a DNMT3A/ISGF3 antagonist or a compound which is a DNMT3A/ISGF3 gene expression inhibitor for use in the treatment and prevention of cancer.

Treatment Method

The present invention relates to a method of treating lymphoma in a subject, and more particularly, for treating Hodgkin lymphoma (HL), and non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL). The method comprises administering to the subject an effective amount of a CD83 binding protein. The invention also relates to methods for diagnosing and assessing lymphoma in a subject.

CLASSIFICATION OF DIFFUSE LARGE B-CELL LYMPHOMA

Disclosed are methods and reagents for diagnosis, classification and treatment of DLBCL and subtypes thereof by means of gene expression profiling. Provided herein is a gene expression signature for use in obtaining diagnostic information for DLBCL and subtypes thereof. Aspects of the present disclosure relate to use of gene expression signature corresponding to particular subtype for classification of a sample from a subject and stratification of a subject for subtype-targeted clinical trial. Also provided herein is a computer based classification model for use in the methods disclosed herein.

Anti-human TIM-3 antibodies and methods of use thereof

An anti-human T-cell immunoglobulin domain and mucin domain 3 (TIM-3) antibody, can bind the peptides, comprising the amino-acid sequence RKGDVSL (SEQ ID NO: 9) and/or EKFNLKL (SEQ ID NO: 10) of human TIM-3 protein. The antibody can regulate immune cell activity. The antibody or binding fragment thereof is useful in diagnosis, prognosis, and treatment of cancers that have been reported to express cell-surface TIM-3 such as lung, liver, esophageal cancer and solid tumors.

NOVEL ANTI-HUMAN MUC1 ANTIBODY FAB FRAGMENT

The problem to be solved is to provide an anti-human MUC1 antibody Fab fragment that is expected to be useful in the diagnosis and/or treatment of a cancer, particularly, the diagnosis and/or treatment of breast cancer or bladder cancer, and a diagnosis approach and/or a treatment approach using a conjugate comprising the Fab fragment. The solution is an anti-human MUC1 antibody Fab fragment comprising a heavy chain fragment comprising a heavy chain variable region consisting of the amino acid sequence represented by SEQ ID NO: 8 or 10, and a light chain comprising a light chain variable region consisting of the amino acid sequence represented by SEQ ID NO: 12, and a conjugate comprising the Fab fragment.

DIAGNOSTIC, PROGNOSTIC, AND MONITORING METHODS FOR SOLID TUMOR CANCERS

The compositions and methods of the invention relate generally to detection of biomarkers for the diagnosis, prognosis, and monitoring of solid tumor cancers. In particular, the invention relates to compositions and methods for detection of B-cell maturation antigen (BCMA) for the diagnosis, prognosis, and monitoring of solid tumor type of cancers.

Targeting o-acetylated gd2 ganglioside as a new therapeutic and diagnostic strategy for <i>Cancer Stem Cells </i>cancer

An antibody recognizing the O-acetylated-GD2 ganglioside for the treatment of Cancer Stem Cells (CSC) cancer, a pharmaceutical composition including the antibody for treating a CSC cancer and a method for treating a CSC cancer in a patient in need thereof, the method including administering the antibody to the patient. A method for diagnosing a CSC, the use of the O-acetylated-GD2 ganglioside as a biomarker of CSC cancer, and a method for predicting the response of a subject affected with CSC cancer to a treatment with the antibody or the composition are also described.

SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR DIAGNOSIS OF ASTROCYTIC BRAIN TUMOR
20200254115 · 2020-08-13 ·

Methods and systems for distinguishing an astrocytic human brain tumor from a non-astrocytic human brain tumor. In one embodiment, a method includes the steps of staining tumor tissue from a subject suspected of having a brain tumor with SR101 and visualizing the tissue stained with SR101 with a fluorescence imaging device to confirm an astrocytic or non-astrocytic tumor type. Advantageously, tumor tissue from a subject is stained ex vivo, and the staining and visualizing steps are performed intraoperatively so as to guide the surgeon and thereby minimize or eliminate the need for a subsequent surgery.

USE OF AN INTEGRATED MICROFLUIDIC CHIP FOR ANALYSIS OF CELL MOTILITY AND PREDICTION AND PROGNOSIS OF PATIENT SURVIVAL

The present invention describes an integrated apparatus that enables identification of invasive tumor cells directly from a specimen. The methods using the apparatus can be used to prognose or predict the survivability of the cancer in a subject and the risk of recurrence of the cancer in the subject after treatment. The methods disclosed herein can be used to determine which chemotherapeutic or other therapies most strongly inhibit the tumor cells invasiveness as a form of personalized therapy.
