  • Publication number: 20160326597
    Abstract: Molecular determinants of cancer response to immunotherapy are described, as are systems and tools for identifying and/or characterizing cancers likely to respond to immunotherapy. The present invention encompasses the discovery that the likelihood of a favorable response to cancer immunotherapy can be predicted. The present invention further comprises the discovery that cancer cells may harbor somatic mutations that result in neoepitopes that are recognizable by a patient's immune system as non-self. The identification of one or more neoepitopes in a cancer sample is useful for determining which cancer patients are likely to respond favorably to immunotherapy, in particular, treatment with an immune checkpoint modulator.

  • Patent number: 8202095
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including medium-encoded computer program products, for creating a cognitive function index. In one aspect, a method includes receiving first information concerning a person, the first information specifying the person's responses, and lack thereof, for components of a cognitive test administered to the person; generating a cognitive function score for the person by comparing the first information with second information concerning a group of people to whom the cognitive test has been administered; converting the cognitive function score to a value in an index comprising a range of values, wherein a first portion of the range corresponds to a cognitively impaired zone, a second portion of the range corresponds to a cognitively normal zone, and a third portion of the range corresponds to a zone of uncertainty defined by a confidence interval centered on a mid-point of the index; and providing the indexed value for the person.

  • Publication number: 20090251190
    Abstract: A method and apparatus are disclosed for generating a second clock signal, having a second effective clock frequency, from a first clock signal, having a first effective clock frequency. Clock pulses of the first clock signal are counted to generate a count value. When the count value reaches a predetermined blanking value, a blanking signal is generated. The blanking signal blanks at least one clock pulse of the first clock signal. The process is repeated multiple times at a predetermined rate corresponding to the predetermined blanking value to generate the second clock signal.
