摘要:
The present invention is in the field of clinical diagnostics. Particularly the present invention relates to the prognosis of adverse events in patients with stable chronic heart failure or being suspected of having stable chronic heart failure by determination of the level of Procalcitonin (PCT).
摘要:
The present invention is in the technical field of breast cancer management, and more particularly relates to the diagnosis and/or prognosing of triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC). The invention is more particularly based on the finding that specific biomarkers are abberantly expressed in patients suffering from a triple-negative breast cancer recurrence, and are highly related to the aggressiveness of this disease, and thus to survival of said patient.
摘要:
The present invention relates to VSTM5-specific antibodies, antibody fragments, and VSTM5 polypeptides, conjugates and compositions comprising same, for modulating (antagonizing or agonizing) one or more of the effects of VSTM5 expression on immunity. More specifically, the present invention relates to VSTM5-specific antibodies, antibody fragments, and VSTM5 polypeptides, conjugates and compositions comprising same for treating and aiding in the diagnosis of cancer, infectious diseases and immune related diseases, e.g., those associated with aberrant (higher or lower than normal) VSTM5 expression by diseased and/or immune cells and/or aberrant (increased or reduced) VSTM5-mediated effects on immunity.
摘要:
Methods for the diagnosis and treatment of B cell Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (B-ALL), based in part on the detection and/or inhibition of Focal Adhesion Kinase (FAK), e.g., phosphorylated FAK (pFAK).
摘要:
The present invention relates to biomarkers associated with breast cancer prognosis. These biomarkers include coding transcripts and their expression products, as well as non-coding transcripts, and are useful for predicting the likelihood of breast cancer recurrence in a breast cancer patient, The present invention also relates to a novel method of identifying intergenic sequences that correlate with a clinical outcome.
摘要:
Various embodiments provide methods for the detection, the diagnosis, and/or the prediction of disease onset of Alzheimer's disease. Methods for determining a state of Alzheimer's disease are provided. Accordingly, these methods can comprise the steps of placing a sample comprising at least one blood component onto a substrate, labeling the sample to identify at least one epigenetic marker and at least one of an inflammation marker and a cellular stress marker; determining an amount of the markers; performing a multivariate statistical analysis to produce an output value; comparing the output value to a reference value; and determining a state of Alzheimer's disease.
摘要:
The present invention provides a composition, kit, and method for detecting hypoxia or diagnosing hypoxia-related diseases, the composition containing a material for detecting arachidonic acid and a derivative thereof. The composition, kit, and method according to the present invention can conveniently and promptly detect hypoxia through the detection of a biomarker in a biological sample, and thus can be useful in the prevention or early diagnose of diseases caused by hypoxia, the determination of the severity of diseases and therapeutic effects, tracking of diseases, or the like.
摘要:
There is provided a method for determining whether a mammalian subject having an endometrial cancer belongs to a first or a second group, wherein the prognosis of subjects of the first group is better than the prognosis of subjects of the second group, comprising the steps of: a) evaluating an amount of ASRGL1 in at least part of a sample earlier obtained from the subject and determining a sample value corresponding to the evaluated amount; b) comparing said sample value with a predetermined reference value; and if said sample value is higher than said reference value, c1) concluding that the subject belongs to the first group; and if said sample value is lower than or equal to said reference value, c2) concluding that the subject belongs to the second group.
摘要:
Provided are methods for evaluating the risk of an adverse clinical outcome in a subject, deciding whether to discharge or continue treating a subject (e.g., treatment on an inpatient basis), or to initiate or terminate treatment, selecting a subject for participation in a clinical study, and selecting a therapeutic treatment for a subject that include determining a level of ST2 in a biological sample from the subject and determining a level of galectin-3 in a biological sample from the subject. Kits are also provided that contain an antibody that specifically binds to ST2, an antibody that specifically binds to galectin-3, and instructions for using the kit to evaluate the risk of an adverse clinical outcome in a subject, to decide whether to discharge or continue treating a subject (e.g., treatment on an inpatient basis) or to initiate or terminate treatment, to select a subject for participation in a clinical study, and/or to select treatment for a subject.
