  • USE OF FREE CIRCULATING DNA FOR DIAGNOSIS, PROGNOSIS, AND TREATMENT OF CANCER
    Publication number: 20160115547
    Abstract: A method of detecting circulating DNA in a body fluid. The method comprises identifying a subject suffering from or at risk for developing cancer, obtaining a body fluid sample from the subject, and determining the sequence integrity of circulating DNA in the sample, wherein the circulating DNA is not purified from the sample.
    Type: Application
    Filed: June 26, 2015
    Publication date: April 28, 2016
    Inventors: Dave S.B. Hoon, Naoyuki Umetani, Eiji Sunami
  • USE OF METHYLATED OR UNMETHYLATED LINE-1 DNA AS A CANCER MARKER
    Publication number: 20150240316
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method of detecting LINE-1 (long interspersed nucleotide elements-1) DNA either methylated or unmethylated at the promoter region in a tissue or body fluid sample from a subject. Also disclosed are methods of using LINE-1 DNA as a biomarker for diagnosing, predicting, and monitoring cancer progression and treatment.
