  • Patent number: 9347088
    Abstract: The present invention concerns a method to determine the gene expression profile on a sample previously obtained from a patient diagnosed for a liver tumor, comprising assaying the expression of a set of genes in this sample and determining the gene expression profile (signature). In a particular embodiment, said method enables to determine the grade of the liver tumor, such as hepatoblastoma (HB) or a hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). The invention is also directed to kits comprising a plurality of pairs of primers or a plurality of probes specific for a set of genes, as well as to solid support or composition comprising a set of probes specific for a set of genes. These methods are useful to determine the grade of a liver tumor in a sample obtained from a patient, to determine the risk of developing metastasis and/or to define the therapeutic regimen to apply to a patient.

  • Patent number: 6410724
    Abstract: The present invention pertains to new polynucleotides or new combinations of polynucleotides useful as diagnostic tools for predicting the occurrence of a human hepatocellular carcinoma disease. The invention is also directed to polynucleotides that consist in candidate tumor suppressor genes the alteration of which is involved in the occurrence of hepatocellular carcinoma in a patient, as well as to polynucleotides derived from such new candidate tumor suppressor genes and to the corresponding expressed polypeptides. The invention also concerns diagnostic methods using said polynucleotides as diagnostic tools.
