  • Publication number: 20220033915
    Abstract: Disclosed is a gene expression panel that can be used to predict prostate cancer (PCa) progression. Some embodiments provide methods for predicting clinical recurrence of PCa. Some embodiments provide a method for predicting progression of prostate cancer in an individual, the method comprising: (a) receiving expression levels of a collection of signature genes from a biological sample taken from said individual, wherein said collection of signature genes comprises at least two genes selected from the group consisting of: NKX2-1, UPK1A, ADRA2C, ABCC11, MMP11, CPVL, ZYG11A, CLEC4F, OAS2, PGC, UPK3B, PCBP3, ABLIM1, EDARADD, GPR81, MYBPC1, F10, KCNA3, GLDC, KCNQ2, RAPGEF1, TUBB2B, MB, DUOXA1, C2orf43, DUOX1, PCA3 and NPR3; (b) applying the expression levels to a predictive model relating expression levels of said collection of signature genes with prostate cancer progression; and (c) evaluating an output of said predictive model to predict progression of prostate cancer in said individual.

  • Patent number: 11098372
    Abstract: Disclosed is a gene expression panel that can be used to predict prostate cancer (PCa) progression. Some embodiments provide methods for predicting clinical recurrence of PCa. Some embodiments provide a method for treating a patient with prostate cancer, the method comprising: detecting expression levels of a collection of signature genes from a biological sample taken from said patient, wherein said collection of signature genes comprises at least NKX2-1; and correlating expression levels of said collection of signature genes with prostate cancer-related mortality to identify whether the patient is at risk of prostate cancer-related mortality.
