  • Patent number: 11821044
    Abstract: The present invention relates to methods for screening a subject for a cancer. In particular, the present invention relates to a method (A) for screening a subject for a cancer comprising the steps of i) extracting the cell free nucleic acids from a sample obtained from the subject, ii) determining the total concentration of mitochondrial cell free nucleic acids, ii) determining the total concentration of nuclear cell free nucleic acids iv) calculating the ratio of the level determined at step ii) to the concentration determined at step iii), v) comparing ratio determined at step iv) with a predetermined corresponding reference value and vi) concluding that the subject suffers from a cancer when the ratio determined at step iv) is lower than the predetermined corresponding reference value or concluding that the subject does not suffer from a cancer when the ratio determined at step iv) is higher than the predetermined corresponding reference value.

  • Patent number: 11814686
    Abstract: The present invention relates to the diagnostic of cancerous subject. Indeed, the inventors observed by using a Q-PCR based methods and sequencing methods that quantification of specific single stranded DNA fragments obtained from cell free nucleic acids (cfDNA) may discriminate cfDNA from healthy and cancer derived subjects. Single stranded DNA fragments obtained from CfDNA or specific range of single stranded DNA fragments are rather lower or higher when derived from healthy subject than from cancer subject. More, specific ratios for different size or range of single stranded DNA fragments varies between cancer subjects and healthy individuals. These values are sufficiently and significantly different to be used as values to determine whether a human subject may have cancer or not as a screening test.
