Abstract: The present disclosure provides gene and gene sets, the expression of which is important in the classification and/or prognosis of cancer, in particular of renal cell carcinoma.

Abstract: Embodiments of a system and method for characterizing a panel of conditions associated with a set of taxa related to microorganisms can include a taxonomic database including reference microbiome features for the set of taxa associated with the panel of conditions; a handling operable to collect a container including biological material from a user, the handling system comprising a sequencer system operable to determine a microorganism sequence dataset; and a panel characterization system operable to: determine user microbiome features for the set of taxa for the user based on the microorganism sequence dataset, generate a comparison between the user microbiome features and the reference microbiome features, and determine a panel characterization for the panel of conditions for the user based on the comparison; and a treatment system operable to promote a therapy for a condition of the panel of conditions based on the panel characterization.

Abstract: Embodiments of a method and system for improved microbiome sequencing can include: generating guide RNA complexes for a set of targets corresponding to a set of taxa associated with the microorganism-related condition; processing the biological sample with the gRNA complexes to generate microorganism nucleic acid fragments comprising a set of end regions associated with the set of targets; ligating the set of end regions with a set of adapters sharing an adapter sequence; and amplifying the set of targets based on the ligated set of end regions and a set of primers sharing a primer sequence associated with the adapter sequence.

Abstract: The present invention provides algorithm-based molecular assays that involve measurement of expression levels of genes from a biological sample obtained from a kidney cancer patient. The present invention also provides methods of obtaining a quantitative score for a patient with kidney cancer based on measurement of expression levels of genes from a biological sample obtained from a kidney cancer patient. The genes may be grouped into functional gene subsets for calculating the quantitative score and the gene subsets may be weighted according to their contribution to cancer recurrence.

Abstract: The present disclosure includes assays that involve measurement of expression levels of prognostic biomarkers, or co-expressed biomarkers, from a biological sample obtained from a prostate cancer patient, and analysis of the measured expression levels to provide information concerning the likely prognosis for the patient, and likelihood that the patient will have a recurrence of prostate cancer, or to classify the tumor by likelihood of clinical outcome or TMPRSS2 fusion status.
