Steen Knudsen has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • METHODS AND DEVICES FOR PROGNOSIS OF CANCER RELAPSE
    Publication number: 20140106986
    Abstract: The present invention features microRNAs as biomarkers for prognosing cancer relapse in cancer patient. The present invention also features methods, devices, and kits for this purpose.
    Type: Application
    Filed: June 1, 2012
    Publication date: April 17, 2014
    Applicant: Medical Prognosis Institute A/S
    Inventors: Steen Knudsen, Wiktor Mazin
  • Predictive Biomarkers for Response to Exercise
    Publication number: 20140094381
    Abstract: A set of biomarkers have been identified that allows one to predict subjects who will respond to an exercise regime in term of cardiorespiratory fitness as assessed by maximal oxygen uptake. These predictions may be used, for example, to predict risk of cardiovascular disease, to design a more effective program for cardiac rehabilitation, to predict capacity for athletic performance or physically demanding occupation, and to predict ability to maintain functional capacity with aging using exercise.
    Type: Application
    Filed: September 6, 2013
    Publication date: April 3, 2014
    Applicants: Medical Prognosis Institute A/S, Board of Supervisors of Louisiana State University and Agricultural and Mechanical College
    Inventors: JAMES TIMMONS, STEEN KNUDSEN, TUOMO RANKINEN, CARL JOHAN SUNDBERG, CLAUDE BOUCHARD
  • Methods, kits and devices for identifying biomarkers of treatment response and use thereof to predict treatment efficacy
    Patent number: 8445198
    Abstract: The present invention features methods, kits, and devices for predicting the sensitivity of a patient to a compound or medical treatment. The invention also features methods for identifying gene biomarkers whose expression correlates to treatment sensitivity or resistance within a patient population or subpopulation.
    Type: Grant
