  • Patent number: 7700286
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for the diagnosis and/or the follow up of the evolution of cancer, which includes the analysis and quantification of over expressed and amplified genes in the plasma/serum of cancer patients or persons suspected to harbor cancer. This is achieved by analyzing together the amount of DNA and RNA of certain genes in the plasma/serum of cancer patients that are the reflection of a gene amplification and/or a gene over expression in comparison to healthy controls.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: January 23, 2006
    Date of Patent: April 20, 2010
    Inventors: Maurice Stroun, Philippe Anker
  • Patent number: 7163789

    Type: Grant
    Filed: May 16, 2001
    Date of Patent: January 16, 2007
