Abstract: The present invention relates to assemblies of primers and probes for determining the cellular signalling pathway of the AR pathway and optionally the activities of the pathways ER, PI3K-FOXO, MAPK-AP1, Notch, HH, TGFbeta, JAK-STAT1/2 and NFkB. Kit or use of the set of 3 or more primers and probes to determine the expression levels of 3 or more genes of the AR cellular signalling pathway and optionally from a cellular signalling pathway selected from the ER, PI3K-FOXO, MAPK-AP1, Notch, HH, TGFbeta, WNT, PR, NFkB, JAK-STAT1/2 and JAK-STAT3 pathways wherein the expression levels of three or more of the reference genes selected from: ACTB, ALAS1, B2M, EEF1A1, POLR2A, PUM1, RPLPO, TBP, TPT1 and TUBA1B may also be determined.

Abstract: The present invention relates to methods for diagnosing, monitoring or prognosticating prostate cancer or the progression state of prostate cancer wherein said method determines the state of the prostate cancer, based on the expression level of phosphodiesterase 4D (PDE4D) variants. The invention further relates to a method of identifying an individual for eligibility for prostate cancer therapy. The invention also relates to products for the analysis of phosphodiesterase 4D (PDE4D) variants as well as pharmaceutical compositions modulating the activity and/or expression of PDE4D variants.

Abstract: A bioinformatics method for determining a risk score that indicates a risk that a subject will experience a negative clinical event within a certain period of time. The risk score is based on a combination of activities of two or more cellular signaling pathways in a subject, such as a human, wherein the specific cellular signaling pathways are the PI3K pathway and one or more of a Wnt pathway, an ER pathway, and an HH pathway. The invention also includes an apparatus with a digital processor configured to perform such a method, to a non-transitory storage medium storing instructions that are executable by a digital processing device to perform such a method, and to a computer program comprising program code means for causing a digital processing device to perform such a method. The invention achieves advanced prognosis of negative clinical events, for example, disease progression, recurrence, development of metastasis, or even death.

Abstract: A bioinformatics method for determining a risk score that indicates a risk that a subject, in particular a human, will experience a negative clinical event within a certain period of time. The risk score is based on a unique combination of activities of two or more cellular signaling pathways in a subject, wherein the selected cellular signaling pathways are the TGF-? pathway and one or more of a PI3K pathway, a Wnt pathway, an ER pathway, and an HH pathway. The invention includes an apparatus with a digital processor configured to perform such a method, a non-transitory storage medium storing instructions that are executable by a digital processing device to perform such a method, and a computer program comprising program code means for causing a digital processing device to perform such a method.

Abstract: Methods are described for stratifying patient risk for patients with prostate cancer and for providing a treatment recommendation to a patient based on a phosphodiesterase 4D variant 7 (PDE4D7) risk score. A diagnostic kit and a computer program product for the analysis and determination of the PDE4D7 risk score are also described.

Abstract: The present invention pertains to methods for determining gene expression signatures for diagnosing patients with prostate cancer, e.g., to establish a prognosis for such patients, for determining the predisposition of said patient to develop aggressive or indolent disease, for example after primary treatment, and/or for identification and stratification of patients for available therapies. The invention also relates to products used in such methods, e.g. kits, software, and the like. The present invention further relates to therapies for use in the treatment of patients that have been diagnosed, identified, or stratified in any of the methods dis closed herein.
