  • Patent number: 9943603
    Abstract: The present invention is directed to a monomer useful in preparing therapeutic compounds. The monomer includes a diversity element which potentially binds to a target molecule with a dissociation constant of less than 300 ?M and a linker element connected to the diversity element. The linker element has a molecular weight less than 500 daltons, is connected, directly or indirectly through a connector, to said diversity element, and is capable of forming a reversible covalent bond or non-covalent interaction with a binding partner of the linker element. The monomers can be covalently or non-covalently linked together to form a therapeutic multimer or a precursor thereof. Also disclosed is a method of screening for therapeutic multimer precursors which bind to a target molecule associated with a condition and a method of screening for linker elements capable of binding to one another.

  • Publication number: 20110166028
    Abstract: The invention relates to the identification and use of gene expression profiles with clinical relevance to the treatment of cellular proliferative disorders, especially those mediated by aberrant Notch signaling using a Notch signaling inhibitor. In particular, the invention provides the identities of genes, whose individual or cumulative expression patterns may be useful in various assays. The gene expression profiles, whether embodied in nucleic acid expression, protein expression, or other expression formats, may be used to select subjects afflicted with a Notch mediated cancer who will likely respond to treatment with a gamma-secretase inhibitor or another Notch inhibiting agent. The same markers may be used in the classification of patients being treated with other Notch inhibitors. The methods may further comprise providing diagnostic, prognostic, or predictive information based on the classifying step. The methods may further comprise selecting a treatment based on the classifying step.

  • Publication number: 20110136116
    Abstract: A method for identifying a plurality of target nucleic acid molecules in a sample. The method provides a plurality of oligonucleotide probe sets. Each set comprises a first and a second probe, each having a target-specific portion and a tunable portion with an acceptor or a donor group. The first probe further comprises an endcapped hairpin. A reaction comprises a denaturation and hybridization cycle. Under the hybridization, the set of probes hybridize in a base-specific manner to their respective target nucleotide sequences, and ligate to one another to form a ligation product. Under conditions that permit hybridization of the tunable portions of the ligation product to one another, an internally hybridized ligation product formed, which allows the detection of the fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET). A method comprising PCR amplification is also disclosed.
