  • Publication number: 20050079513
    Abstract: Methods and kits for classifying patients having diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) based upon expression of a plurality of genes are disclosed. Real-time quantitative RT-PCR can be used to measure expression values. Correlating expression values of the plurality of genes in a tumor sample from the patient to reference expression values obtained from DLBCL patients can stratify patients in the classification groups. The methods and kits can be used to predict overall patient survival.

  • Publication number: 20050042699
    Abstract: The invention concerns composititions and methods for the diagnosis and treatment of neoplastic cell growth and proliferation in mammals, including humans. The invention is based on the identification of cardiotrophin-1 gene amplified in the genome of tumor cells. Such gene amplification is expected to be associated with the overexpression of the gene product and contribute to tumorigenesis. Acordingly, the cardiotrophin-1 polypeptide encoded by the amplified gene is believed to be a useful target for the diagnosis and/or treatment (including prevention) of certain cancers, and may act as a predictor of the prognosis of tumor treatment.
