Abstract: This disclosure provides methods for treating a subject having small cell lung cancer by determining expression levels of biomarkers highly correlated with a subtype of small cell lung cancer that are sensitive to treatment with pentamidine or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof. The methods are drawn to determining a predictive gene expression profile of a subtype of small cell lung cancer and treating the subject with an effective amount of pentamidine or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt of pentamidine as a chemotherapy agent. The methods generally involve treatment of a subtype of small cell lung cancer predicted to be a responder to pentamidine or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt of pentamidine.

Abstract: An example method comprises receiving historical information of episodes, constructing event sets from the historical information, categorizing each event with general labels and synthetic labels, learning an event metric on the events by using the general and synthetic labels to perform dimensionality reduction to associate a vector with each event and to determine an angle between every two vectors, determining an event set metric using distances between each pair of event sets, deriving a sequence metric on the episodes, the sequence metric obtaining a preferred match between two episodes, deriving a subsequence metric on the episodes, the subsequence metric is a function of the event set metric on subsequences of each episode, grouping episodes into subgroups based on distances, for at least one subgroup, generating a consensus sequence by finding a preferred sequence of events, and the episodes of the subgroup, and generating a report indicating the consensus sequence.

Abstract: In various embodiments, a system comprises a map and a patient data assessment module. The map includes a plurality of groupings and interconnections of the groupings, each grouping having one or more patient members that share biological similarities, each interconnection interconnecting groupings that share at least one common patient member, the map identifying a set of groupings and a set of interconnections having a medical characteristic of a set of medical characteristics. The patient data assessment module may be configured to receive sensor data from a user's mobile device and to assess the sensor data to generate user medical attributes, to determine whether the user shares the biological similarities with the one or more patient members of each grouping based, at least in part, on the user medical attributes, thereby enabling association of the user with one or more of the set of medical characteristics.
