Detection Of Extracellular Tumor-Associated Nucleic Acid In Blood Plasma Or Serum Using Nucleic Acid Amplification Assays

US Patent:
7282335, Oct 16, 2007
Filed:
Aug 31, 2005
Appl. No.:
11/217120
Inventors:
Christopher Gocke - Ellicott City MD, US
Michael Kopreski - Long Valley NJ, US
Assignee:
The Pennsylvania State University - University Park PA
International Classification:
C12Q 1/68, C12P 19/34
US Classification:
435 6, 435 912
Abstract:
This invention relates to detection of specific extracellular nucleic acid in plasma or serum fractions of human or animal blood associated with neoplastic or proliferative disease. Specifically, the invention relates to detection of nucleic acid derived from mutant oncogenes or other tumor-associated DNA, and to those methods of detecting and monitoring extracellular mutant oncogenes or tumor-associated DNA found in the plasma or serum fraction of blood by using rapid DNA extraction followed by nucleic acid amplification with or without enrichment for mutant DNA. In particular, the invention relates to the detection, identification, or monitoring of the existence, progression or clinical status of benign, premalignant, or malignant neoplasms in humans or other animals that contain a mutation that is associated with the neoplasm through detection of the mutated nucleic acid of the neoplasm in plasma or serum fractions. The invention permits the detection of extracellular, tumor-associated nucleic acid in the serum or plasma of humans or other animals recognized as having a neoplastic or proliferative disease or in individuals without any prior history or diagnosis of neoplastic or proliferative disease. The invention provides the ability to detect extracellular nucleic acid derived from genetic sequences known to be associated with neoplasia, such as oncogenes, as well as genetic sequences previously unrecognized as being associated with neoplastic or proliferative disease.
