  • Patent number: 9994911
    Abstract: Provided herein is technology relating to detecting neoplasia and particularly, but not exclusively, to methods, compositions, and related uses for detecting premalignant and malignant neoplasms such as pancreatic and colorectal cancer. Accordingly, provided herein is technology for pancreatic cancer screening markers and other gastrointestinal cancer screening markers that provide a high signal to-noise ratio and a low background level when detected from samples taken from a subject (e.g., stool sample). As described herein, the technology provides a number of methylated DNA markers and subsets thereof (e.g., sets of 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12 or more markers) with high discrimination for G1 neoplasms overall and/or at individual tumor sites.

  • Publication number: 20130244235
    Abstract: The present invention provides methods and materials related to the detection of colorectal neoplasia (CRN) associated with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). The present invention provides markers specific for colorectal neoplasia associated with inflammatory bowel disease in or associated with a subject's stool sample. In particular, the present invention provides methods and materials for identifying mammals (e.g., humans) having colorectal neoplasia associated with inflammatory bowel disease by detecting the presence and level of indicators of colorectal neoplasia such as, for example, epigenetic alterations (e.g., DNA methylation) (e.g., CpG methylation) (e.g., CpG methylation in coding or regulatory regions of BMP3, NDRG4, vimentin, EYA4) in DNA from a stool sample obtained from the mammal.
