Abstract: The application relates to a process for the preparation of a compound of formula (II) by cyclisation of a polyene of formula (I), and to an intermediate of formula (III). The obtained compounds are useful intermediates in the preparation of specific isoprenoids, preferably in the production of vitamin A and derivatives of vitamin A.

Abstract: The present invention relates to the use of the value of the expression of at least one gene selected from the group comprising: GBP 1 gene, HLF gene, CXCL13 gene and SULT1E1 gene, for the estimation of prognosis of distant relapse-free survival or overall survival of a patient with triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) having received a neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NACT).

Abstract: The present invention relates to an ex vivo method for determining the susceptibility of a patient suffering from cancer to respond to a therapeutic treatment based on the administration of an antibody specific for the HER2 protein, this method comprising the quantification of HER2-HER2 dimers in a tissue sample from said patient using the FRET technique. The invention also relates to a kit of reagents for implementing this method.

Abstract: The present invention relates generally to the fields of genetics and medicine. More specifically, the present invention relates to improved methods of treating cancers using a TLR3 agonist, by assessing the expression of a TLR3 receptor by cancer cells.

Abstract: A method for determining the benign or malignant state of a breast tumor in a biological sample is presented. The benign or malignant state is determined by measuring the variation of expression of twelve genes and at least one variant of each of the twelve genes when the variants exist, using a combination of 50 polynucleotide probe sets. An expression profile of the sample is then compared with reference expression profiles of control benign and malignant breast tissues. The probe sets can be arranged in a microarray.

Abstract: The invention is generally directed to a diagnostic method for predicting the benefit of the response of a subject diagnosed with cancer to a platinum compound-based adjuvant chemotherapy, preferably to a cisplatin-based chemotherapy which implements the determination of the PARP expression level in the biological sample containing tumor cells, and, preferably, together with the MSH2 and/or ERCC1 expression level, more preferably together with the MSH2 and ERCC1 expression levels.

Abstract: The invention relates to the use of a multiplicity of polynucleotide probe sets, the multiplicity of polynucleotide probe sets consisting in a combination of pools of polynucleotide probe sets, each polynucleotide probe set containing at least one polynucleotide probe chosen among a library of nucleic acid sequences, the polynucleotide probes involved in the combination of pools of polynucleotide probe sets of the multiplicity of polynucleotide probe sets being such that each polynucleotide probe specifically hybridizes with one gene, and/or at least one of its variants when present, for determining the variation of expression at least 12 genes, and their variants when present, in order to diagnose the benign or malignant state of a breast tumor.
