Patent number: 9057108Abstract: A two-tiered classification system that can be integrated with the current algorithm used by pathologists for identification of the site of origin for ‘malignancy with unknown primary’ is presented. In use, morphology, immunohistochemical (IHC) studies, and microarray-based top tier gene expression classifiers first subclassify cytokeratin positive carcinomas into adenocarcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma, neuroendocrine carcinoma and urothelial carcinoma. Subsequently, organ-specific IHC-markers, if available, are used in conjunction with microarray-based second tier gene expression classifiers to assign the primary site of origin to the sample. This new hybrid approach combines IHC with a hierarchy of quantitative gene expression based classifiers into an algorithmic method that can assist pathologists to further refine and support their decision making process.Type: GrantFiled: September 12, 2012Date of Patent: June 16, 2015Assignee: H. Lee Moffitt Cancer and Research Institute, Inc.Inventors: Timothy Yeatman, Barbara A. Centeno, Gregory C. Bloom

Patent number: 9037416Abstract: Actively dividing tumors appear to progress to a life threatening condition more rapidly than slowly dividing tumors. Assessing actively dividing tumors currently involves a manual assessment of the number of mitotic cells in a histological slide prepared from the tumor and assessed by a trained pathologist. Disclosed is a method for using cumulative information from a series of expressed genes to determine tumor prognosis. This cumulative information can be used to categorize tumor samples into high mitotic states or low mitotic states using a mathematical algorithm and gene expression data derived from microarrays or quantitative-Polymerase Chain Reaction (Q-PCR) data. The specific mathematical description outlines how the algorithm assesses the most informative subset of genes from the full list of genes during the assessment of each sample.Type: GrantFiled: March 22, 2010Date of Patent: May 19, 2015Assignees: University of South Florida, H.

Patent number: 8175896Abstract: Computers, computer program products, and methods for identifying a plurality of subjects for a clinical trial are provided. A candidate set of molecular profiles in a stored plurality of molecular profiles are identified. Each such profile has measurements for a discriminating set of cellular constituents that match the measurements of corresponding cellular constituents in a responder set of biological samples, thereby identifying the plurality of subjects for the trial from those subjects from which the candidate set of molecular profiles were derived. Each respective molecular profile in the stored plurality of profiles has measurements of a plurality of cellular constituents from a respective biological sample in a plurality of samples obtained from a first plurality of subjects.Type: GrantFiled: August 8, 2011Date of Patent: May 8, 2012Assignees: H.
