  • Publication number: 20210395374
    Abstract: The present invention is directed to a method of treating a hematologic malignancy such as acute myeloid leukemia (AML) or myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS), including hematologic malignancies that are refractive to chemotherapeutic and/or hypomethylating agents. The method concerns administering a CD123×CDS bispecific binding molecule to a patient in an amount effective to stimulate the killing of cells of said hematologic malignancy in said patient. The present invention is additionally directed to the embodiment of such method in which a cellular sample from the patient evidences an expression of one or more target genes that is increased relative to a baseline level of expression of such genes, for example, a baseline level of expression of such genes in a reference population of individuals who are suffering from the hematologic malignancy, or with respect to the level of expression of a reference gene.

  • Patent number: 10077466
    Abstract: The present invention relates to compositions and methods for detection and quantification of individual target molecules in biomolecular samples. In particular, the invention relates to improved, stable nanoreporter probes that are capable of binding to and identifying target molecules based on the probes' uniquely detectable signal. Methods for identifying target-specific sequences for inclusion in the probes are also provided, as are methods of making and using such probes. Polynucleotide sequences of certain nanoreporter components are also provided. The probes can be used in diagnostic, prognostic, quality control and screening applications.
