  • PARP genomic variants conferring resistance and sensitization to chemotherapy under inhibition
    Patent number: 10260108
    Abstract: A method is provided for selecting a subject diagnosed with cancer as a candidate for treatment with a PARP1 inhibitor, or both a PARP1 inhibitor and a chemotherapeutic agent such as an alkylating agent. The method includes detecting the presence or absence of a mutation in a non-coding region of a PARP1 gene, wherein the presence of a mutation in the PARP1 gene indicates that the cancer can be treated with the PARP1 inhibitor, optionally in conjunction with the chemotherapeutic agent. In a specific, non-limiting example, the PARP1 inhibitor is verliparib (ABT-888).

  • K-PARTITE GRAPH BASED FORMALISM FOR CHARACTERIZATION OF COMPLEX PHENOTYPES IN CLINICAL DATA ANALYSES AND DISEASE OUTCOME PROGNOSIS
    Publication number: 20140200824
    Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed that can analyze relationships between parameters in data matrices (e.g., collections of individual profiles). A graph topology can be defined on a data matrix with partitions as variables and vertices in all partitions and their potentials and edges as the co-occurrence of a pair of variable values in a profile. Individual graphs can be constructed from data and value co-occurrences for every profile, and a study data graph made as a union of all individual graphs. Heterogeneity Landmarks (HLs) can be determined from the study data graph, and graph-graph distances between individual graphs and all HLs. These distances can be used for prognoses based on similarity of a profile to one or more HLs.

  • DISCOVERY OF t-HOMOLOGY IN A SET OF SEQUENCES AND PRODUCTION OF LISTS OF t-HOMOLOGOUS SEQUENCES WITH PREDEFINED PROPERTIES
    Publication number: 20110172930
    Abstract: System(s) and method(s) for analysis and design of genome sequences are provided. A graph representation of a genome sequence facilitates generation of a thermodynamic based quantity, e.g., an entropy-based and enthalpy-based thermodynamic tolerance [?], which in turn affords estimation of a gene sequence potential function that depends at least upon structural and functional properties of the gene sequence. The gene sequence potential (?) is determined, at least in part, via a generalized Schrödinger equation for the thermodynamic tolerance. Gene sequence potential and thermodynamic tolerance [?], and derived quantities, like thermodynamic tolerance profile and generalized homology, provide an analytic instrument for characterization of natural and synthetic gene sequences, and in conjunction with graph-based algorithms embodies a tool for design of genome sequences with predetermined properties.
