Patent number: 12042320Abstract: Systems and methods for multi-modal, multi-resolution deep learning neural networks for segmentation, outcomes prediction and longitudinal response monitoring to immunotherapy and radiotherapy are detailed herein. A structure-specific Generational Adversarial Network (SSGAN) is used to synthesize realistic and structure-preserving images not produced using state-of-the art GANs and simultaneously incorporate constraints to produce synthetic images. A deeply supervised, Multi-modality, Multi-Resolution Residual Networks (DeepMMRRN) for tumor and organs-at-risk (OAR) segmentation may be used for tumor and OAR segmentation. The DeepMMRRN may combine multiple modalities for tumor and OAR segmentation. Accurate segmentation is may be realized by maximizing network capacity by simultaneously using features at multiple scales and resolutions and feature selection through deep supervision. DeepMMRRN Radiomics may be used for predicting and longitudinal monitoring response to immunotherapy.Type: GrantFiled: July 30, 2019Date of Patent: July 23, 2024Assignee: Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer CenterInventors: Joseph O.

Patent number: 12036212Abstract: Disclosed is a method for enhancing tumor response to chemotherapy, the method comprising administering a short-acting anti-angiogenic agent (AAA) capable of activating ASMase to a subject afflicted with a solid tumor, and thereby creating a time interval of increased susceptibility of said tumor to one or more chemotherapeutic agents, followed by administration of at least one chemotherapeutic agent within the interval. The interval can be defined in terms of a short-duration activation of ASMase signaling by the AAA. Disclosed are also methods for predicting the tumor response in a patient afflicted with a solid tumor to a chemotherapeutic agent, using as an indicator of the response ASMase level or activity (or ceramide level) in the patient following the administration of the chemotherapeutic agent to the patient, or dynamic IVIM based DW-MRI to measure perfusion alterations following administration of the chemotherapeutic agent.Type: GrantFiled: March 28, 2022Date of Patent: July 16, 2024Assignee: Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer CenterInventors: Richard Kolesnick, Adriana Haimovitz-Friedman, Evis Sala, Zvi Fuks

Patent number: 12029717Abstract: The present invention relates to methods for treating brain metastasis by inhibiting gap junction functionality. It is based, at least in part, on the discovery that cancer cells expressing Protocadherin 7 and Connexin 43 form gap junctions with astrocytes that promote the growth of brain metastases, and that inhibition of Protocadherin 7 and/or Connexin 43 expression in cancer cells reduce progression of brain metastases. It is further based on the discovery that treatment with gap junction inhibitors tonabersat and meclofenamate inhibited progression of brain metastatic lesions and enhanced the anti-cancer activity of the conventional chemotherapeutic agent, carboplatin.Type: GrantFiled: June 11, 2021Date of Patent: July 9, 2024Assignee: MEMORIAL SLOAN-KETTERING CANCER CENTERInventors: Joan Massague, Adrienne Boire, Qing Chen

Patent number: 12033727Abstract: The present disclosure is directed to managing and accessing experiment data. A data processing system may generate a system identifier for each instance that leads to a generation of experiment data. A first segment may refer to a source entity, and may be used to differentiate identifiers generated by different source entities. This implementation may aim to provide an explicit representation of the data generation process while providing a glimpse on select metadata attributes, such as an individual species, sample class, and experimental technique used to generate the dataset. These constraints may prevent duplicates and may enable system-side associations among subjects, samples, aliquots, and experiments.Type: GrantFiled: July 23, 2020Date of Patent: July 9, 2024Assignee: Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer CenterInventors: Juan Santiago Medina-Martinez, Elli Pappaemmanuil, Andrew Kung, Juan Esteban Arango Ossa, Max Fine Levine

Patent number: 12031897Abstract: A target may be tagged, and its position tracked to maintain the position of the target at the center (e.g., zero region) of a suppression beam, where suppression is minimal, so the signal from the target is not suppressed relative to signal from background molecules. Point scanning is not needed, as a pixelated detector of a camera can be used to acquire the position of the target in one shot. Images of the object from the pixelated detector can be analyzed to acquire the position of the target. To maintain the target in the zero, the beams may be steered onto the target. Alternatively or additionally, the sample may be moved to place the sample in the center. A correction signal may be sent to cause the sample and/or beams to be moved to maintain the target in position.Type: GrantFiled: March 30, 2020Date of Patent: July 9, 2024Assignee: Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer CenterInventor: Alexandros Pertsinidis
