Method Of Screening For Sensitivity To Kinase Inhibitor Therapy

US Patent:
7803546, Sep 28, 2010
Filed:
Feb 23, 2007
Appl. No.:
11/678420
Inventors:
David B. Agus - Beverly Hills CA, US
Assignee:
Cedars-Sinai Medical Center - Los Angeles CA
International Classification:
C12Q 1/68, G01N 33/574, C07H 21/00
US Classification:
435 6, 435 721, 435 723, 536 231
Abstract:
Described herein are methods for treating cancer and other disease conditions in individuals who have either developed a resistance to conventional tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) therapy or who are non-responsive ab initio to conventional TKI therapy. In various embodiments, the methods include administering to a patient a resistance-surmounting quantity of a TKI on a weekly or semi-weekly basis. Alternate embodiments of the present invention include a diagnostic method for assessing an individual's probability of being resistant to TKI therapy, based upon an expression level of epithelial membrane protein-1 (EMP-1); one of the genes believed to be responsible for TKI resistance. The methods of the present invention may be particularly useful in the treatment of lung, breast, prostate, ovarian, brain and colon cancers. The methods of the present invention may be effective in blocking the HER-2 kinase domain either in addition to or in lieu of blocking the EGFR kinase domain.

Bi-Directional System For Mass Spectrometry

US Patent:
7816647, Oct 19, 2010
Filed:
Feb 28, 2006
Appl. No.:
11/816899
Inventors:
David B. Agus - Beverly Hills CA, US
Assignee:
Cedars-Sinai Medical Center - Los Angeles CA
International Classification:
H01J 49/26, H01J 49/36
US Classification:
250291, 250281, 250282, 250285
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a system and method for mass spectrometry () that allows for bi-directional introduction of collections of charged particles into the magnetic field of a mass spectrometer. More particularly, the present invention includes a system for mass spectrometry () (e. g. , an FTMS mass spectrometer) with a cylindrical magnet () configured to receive and measure the cyclotron frequencies () of charged particles that are introduced () into the cylindrical magnet () from either of the two axial ends thereof. Methods of the invention relate to performing mass spectrometry analysis on collections of charged particles that are introduced (), serially, simultaneously or both, into a cylindrical magnet () from opposing axial ends thereof. The present invention exhibits significantly increased magnet throughput relative to currently available devices, by allowing flow in the opposite direction to a second detector, e. g. , during ion processing time of a first detector.

Gene Expression Markers For Response To Egfr Inhibitor Drugs

US Patent:
2005016, Jul 28, 2005
Filed:
May 28, 2004
Appl. No.:
10/857715
Inventors:
David Agus - Beverly Hills CA, US
Joffre Baker - Montara CA, US
Ron Natale - Santa Monica CA, US
Steven Shak - Hillsborough CA, US
International Classification:
C12Q001/68
US Classification:
435006000
Abstract:
The present invention concerns prognostic markers associated with cancer. In particular, the invention concerns prognostic methods based on the molecular characterization of gene expression in paraffin-embedded, fixed samples of cancer tissue, which allow a physician to predict whether a patient is likely to respond well to treatment with an EGFR inhibitor.

Abstract:
Described herein are genes whose expression are up-regulated or down-regulated in prostate cancer. Also described are such genes whose expression is further up-regulated or down-regulated in drug-resistant prostate cancer cells. Related methods and compositions that can be used for diagnosis and treatment of prostate cancer are disclosed. Also described herein are methods that can be used to identify modulators of prostate cancer.
