  • Patent number: 11965206
    Abstract: A method of treating a patient with multiple drugs using adjusted phenotypes of CYP450 enzymes to assess the risk of adverse drug reactions occurring due to drug-enzyme interactions. CYP450 enzyme genotypes and phenotypes are measured in a patient. The phenotypes are scored numerically. The drugs intended for treatment are scored numerically for their ability to induce or inhibit the CYP450 enzymes. The drug scores are used to adjust the CYP450 phenotype scores relative to inducing or inhibiting the enzymes. An accurate adjusted phenotype score for a given CYP450 enzyme is converted to an accurate adjusted phenotype. Any of the intended drugs for treatment that are substrates for the given CYP450 enzyme can be evaluated for risk of an adverse drug reaction based on the adjusted phenotype. This method of rapid risk assessment provides an accurate basis for decisions regarding changes in dose, eliminating a drug, or replacing a drug.

  • Patent number: 11932836
    Abstract: An electric reaction measuring apparatus measures a potential of each of measurement electrodes, which are respectively disposed in chambers in a culture vessel, with respect to at least one reference electrode. The electric reaction measuring apparatus includes at least one control circuit. A measurement object is disposed in each of the chambers. The at least one control circuit calculates at least one principal component for each of the measurement electrodes by performing principal component analysis of the potential of each of the measurement electrodes; estimates, for each of the measurement electrodes, a potential corresponding to the principal component from the principal component of the measurement electrode, and synthesizes the estimated potential; subtracts the synthesized potential of the measurement electrode from a potential measured at the measurement electrode; and outputs a potential after subtraction.

  • Patent number: 11869633
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides methods for accurately predicting the dynamics of symptom response to drugs or other interventions for the treatment of major depressive disorder or other psychological conditions. These methods can allow for a shortening of the time period necessary for the evaluation of a drug or other therapeutic intervention. These predictive methods are based on measured and/or self-reported symptom severity measures at two or more points in time. These measures are then discretized into symptom classes (e.g., low, moderate, severe) and the symptom classes are then applied to the predictive model to predict the progression of symptoms and/or the effectiveness of a drug or other therapeutic intervention.
