Jared Lunceford has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Patent number: 11326211
    Abstract: The present disclosure describes baseline and on treatment blood-based gene signature biomarkers that are predictive of tumor sensitivity to therapy with a PD-1 antagonist. The on-treatment biomarkers comprise a PD-L1 gene signature or an interferon gamma gene signature and the baseline gene signature biomarker comprises genes associated with the oxidative phosphorylation pathway. The disclosure also provides methods and kits for testing tumor samples for these biomarkers, as well as methods for treating subjects with a PD-1 antagonist based on the test results.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: April 12, 2016
    Date of Patent: May 10, 2022
    Assignee: Merck Sharp & Dohme Corp.
    Inventors: Mark Ayers, Jared Lunceford, Andrey Loboda, Michael Nebozhyn, Terrill K. McClanahan, Heather Hirsch
