  • Publication number: 20090203639
    Abstract: Two hundred ten markers are provided which are epigenetically silenced in one or more cancer types. The markers can be used diagnostically, prognostically, therapeutically, and for selecting treatments that are well tailored for an individual patient. Restoration of expression of silenced genes can be useful therapeutically, for example, if the silenced gene is a tumor-suppressor gene. Restoration can be accomplished by supplying non-methylated copies of the silenced genes or polynucleotides encoding their encoded products. Alternatively, restoration can be accomplished using chemical demethylating agents or methylation inhibitors. Kits for testing for epigenetic silencing can be used in the context of diagnostics, prognostics, or for selecting “personalized medicine” treatments.

  • Publication number: 20090023137
    Abstract: The present invention provides methods and kits for detecting susceptibility to, or the incidence of, cervical cancer in a sample comprising determining the methylation status of the ESR1 gene, optionally as part of a panel of genes. Also provided are methods and kits which involve determining the expression levels of genes including the ESR1 gene in order to diagnose cervical cancer.
