Abstract: The disclosed embodiments include methods, systems, and articles of manufacture for providing business ratings. The disclosed embodiments include, for example, a system that may be configured to access spending transaction data including at least a unique payor identifier, a payee description, a payee category code, and a postal code. The system may determine a payee identification for the spending transaction data by comparing the spending transaction data to a plurality of known payees having the same payee category code as the spending transaction data. Further, the system may access one or more historical spending transactions matching the payee category code, and generate a business rating score for a payee associated with the determined payee identification based on at least the determined one or more historical spending transactions.

Abstract: The present invention provides compositions and methods for detecting the activation states of components of signal transduction pathways in tumor cells. Information on the activation states of components of signal transduction pathways derived from use of the invention can be used for cancer diagnosis, prognosis, and in the design of cancer treatments.

Abstract: The present invention provides methods for detecting, measuring and quantitating the expression and activation states of signal transduction analytes in cells such as tumor cells. The invention also provides methods for selecting therapy, optimizing therapy, monitoring therapeutic efficacy, and/or detecting therapeutic resistance. Accordingly, the methods are useful for improving cancer therapy selection and disease monitoring.

Abstract: The present invention provides antibody-based arrays for detecting the activation state and/or total amount of a plurality of signal transduction molecules in rare circulating cells and methods of use thereof for facilitating cancer prognosis and diagnosis and the design of personalized, targeted therapies.

Abstract: The present invention provides assays and methods for predicting the post-operative survival of a subject having an early stage gastric cancer after tumor surgery. The present invention also provides methods for treating a subject having an early stage gastric cancer by administering a combination therapy tailored to the signal transduction biomarkers that are activated in the cancer. In particular embodiments, the methods of the invention rely on the detection of the activation state or level of a specific combination of signal transducer analytes in a cancer cell obtained from the subject. Thus, the methods of the invention are particularly useful for predicting the survival or prognosis of a subject having an early stage gastric cancer and for guiding both pre- and post-operative treatment decisions by identifying subjects who would benefit from combination therapy as opposed to monotherapy.

Abstract: The present invention provides methods for selecting a suitable anticancer drug therapy, and for identifying and predicting response, for the treatment of colorectal cancer. The present invention also provides methods for monitoring the status of colorectal cancer and monitoring how a patient with colorectal cancer is responding to anticancer drug therapy. The present invention further provides methods for the rational selection of therapy with one or more anticancer drugs tailored to target signal transduction pathway components with dysregulated expression and/or activation levels in patients with somatic mutations in an oncogene.

Abstract: Contemplated methods and kits include a plurality of single stranded oligonucleotides that comprise a discriminating sequence that is encompassed on one end by a label and on the other end by a unique tag sequence. In one preferred aspect, the discriminating sequence is an RNA repeat unit, forms a heteroduplex with a complementary DNA repeat unit of the target nucleic acid, and the discriminating agent is RNaseH. Using such systems, the number of repeat units can be simply identified by hydrolysis of the discriminating sequence where such sequence is adjacent to a predetermined number of DNA repeat units in the single stranded oligonucleotide.
