Patent number: 11842805Abstract: Comprehensive molecular profiling provides a wealth of data concerning the molecular status of patient samples. Such data can be compared to patient response to treatments to identify biomarker signatures that predict response or non-response to such treatments. This approach has been applied to identify biomarker signatures that correlate with response of cancer patients to platinum-based chemotherapy. Described herein are data structures, data processing, and machine learning models to predict a probability of benefit of a treatment for a disease or disorder of a subject having a particular set of biomarkers, as well as an exemplary application of such a model to precision medicine, e.g., to methods for selecting a treatment based on a molecular profile, e.g., a treatment comprising platinum therapy.Type: GrantFiled: June 2, 2022Date of Patent: December 12, 2023Assignee: Caris MPI, Inc.Inventors: Jim Abraham, Wolfgang Michael Korn, David Spetzler

Patent number: 10417925Abstract: Devices and methods for providing commentary for multiple points of interests utilize audio communication devices having an optic code reader, a microcontroller, a transmitter/receiver, a storage module and a speaker and/or headphone jack. Two or more audio communication devices may be synced to the same channel. A primary audio communication device sends a signal that triggers a dependent audio communication device to play a prerecorded commentary regarding a selected point of interest in a language selected by a person using the dependent audio communication device. A map having icons representing points of interest includes optic codes embedded within the icons. When an audio communication device scans an icon with an optic reader, a triggering signal causes the audio communication device and any dependent audio communication devices to play a corresponding commentary and a language selected by a user.Type: GrantFiled: May 6, 2017Date of Patent: September 17, 2019Inventor: Wolfgang Michael Klante
