Abstract: Disclosed herein are methods for identifying patients with pancreatic cancer and subjects at risk for developing pancreatic cancer, methods for monitoring a patient with an identified pancreatic lesion, methods for evaluating the effectiveness of a treatment used for a patient with pancreatic cancer, and methods for selecting a therapy for treating pancreatic cancer in a particular patient. The invention makes use of hydroxymethylation biomarkers, which in combination with one or more clinical parameters and optionally one or more additional types of biomarkers and/or patient-specific risk factors, exhibit a hydroxymethylation level that correlates with pancreatic cancer. Kits and other methods of use are also provided.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are systems, kits, and methods for classifying the status of a transplant based on expression levels of a plurality of genes from a biological sample of a transplant recipient. The status of a transplant may be classified based on a predictive rejection classification including, but not limited to, antibody-mediated rejection (ABMR), T-cell mediated rejection (TCMR), mixed ABMR+TCMR, and no rejection. The predictive rejection classification may be assigned based on probability rejection scores, and a probability rejection score may be assigned to each rejection label. In some embodiments, the rejection label having the highest probability rejection score amongst the plurality of rejection labels may be assigned as the predictive rejection classification. Non-limiting rejection labels may include ABMR, TCMR, mixed ABMR+TCMR, and no rejection. The probability rejection score of each rejection label may be generated based on a plurality of sets of weights and expression levels of genes.

Abstract: Described herein are methods such as multi-omic methods for assessing a disease such as cancer. The multi-omic methods may integrate proteomic, transcriptomic, genomic, lipidomic, or metabolomic data. The method screening diseases or disease states. Also described herein are methods for screening for diseases or disease states from biological samples. The methods may include assessing whether a nodule, mass, or cyst is cancerous.

Abstract: A method is provided for probabilistically assigning a tissue of origin to a nucleic acid in a sample, e.g., DNA in a cell-free fluid sample obtained from a human subject. A hydroxymethylation profile is generated for the sample DNA and then compared across a reference data set of hydroxymethylation profile vectors, where each hydroxymethylation profile vector identifies the hydroxymethylation profile at a specific reference locus, the tissue-specific gene associated with the reference locus, and the tissue with which the gene and reference locus are associated. A tissue of origin can be probabilistically assigned to the sample nucleic acid using the results of the comparison. Other methods of use are also provided.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are methods for identifying patients likely to have pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) and patients likely to be at risk for developing PDAC. Related methods are also provided that pertain to patient monitoring, treatment evaluation, and an improved multi-cancer test., as are kits that are suitable for carrying out the aforementioned methods. The invention makes use of hydroxymethylation biomarkers, which in combination with one or more clinical parameters and optionally one or more additional types of biomarkers and/or patient-specific risk factors, exhibit a hydroxymethylation level that correlates with the presence of or risk of developing PDAC.

Abstract: The present invention provides methods to determine the prognosis and appropriate treatment for patients diagnosed with cancer, based on the expression levels of one or more biomarkers. More particularly, the invention relates to the identification of genes, or sets of genes, able to distinguish breast cancer patients with a good clinical prognosis from those with a bad clinical prognosis. The invention further provides methods for providing a personalized genomics report for a cancer patient. The inventions also relates to computer systems and software for data analysis using the prognostic and statistical methods disclosed herein.

Abstract: 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.
