  • PREDICTIVE MODELS AND METHODS FOR DIAGNOSING AND ASSESSING CORONARY ARTERY DISEASE
    Publication number: 20110184712
    Abstract: Biomarkers useful for diagnosing and assessing the extent of coronary artery disease (CAD) are provided, along with kits for measuring their expression. The invention also provides predictive models, based on the biomarkers, as well as computer systems, and software embodiments of the models for scoring and optionally classifying samples. In a preferred embodiment, the biomarkers are organized into clustered groups. The expression level of the biomarkers within a group are highly correlated to each other in normal and disease states. Expression values of genes chosen from each of two, three, four or five of the clustered gene groups, A, B, C, D, E may be used. Alternatively, expression values of genes chosen from the groups are combined into a metagene.
