Eeg Prediction Method For Medication Response

US Patent:
8239013, Aug 7, 2012
Filed:
Feb 10, 2005
Appl. No.:
11/054762
Inventors:
Stephen C. Suffin - Sherman Oaks CA, US
W. Hamlin Emory - Malibu CA, US
Assignee:
CNS Response, Inc. - Aliso Viejo CA
International Classification:
A61B 5/04
US Classification:
600544, 600300, 600545
Abstract:
The present invention includes a system and method for computerized analysis of a patient's electroencephalogram (EEG) recorded by electrodes placed on the scalp, for the purpose of predicting patient response to medications and therapeutic agents commonly used in psychiatric practice. The prediction of the responses to medications (adverse, no effect, favorable outcome) is an important problem in the clinical practice of psychiatry. A growing number of therapeutic agents are available to the clinician but these agents generate variable responses when prescribed based solely on the patient's history and current symptoms. The present invention is used by physicians to improve patient outcome by selecting agents most likely to be effective for a given patient, using a standardized analysis of the digitized EEG and comparison of individual patient EEC data to a particular database of similar patients whose clinical outcome to pharmacotherapy is known.

Compositions And Methods For Treatment Of Nervous System Disorders

US Patent:
2005009, May 5, 2005
Filed:
Oct 30, 2003
Appl. No.:
10/697497
Inventors:
Stephen Suffin - Sherman Oaks CA, US
W. Hamlin Emory - Malibu CA, US
Leonard Brandt - San Juan Capistrano CA, US
Assignee:
CNS Response - Santa Anna CA
International Classification:
A61K031/55, A61K031/137
US Classification:
514217000, 514649000
Abstract:
The present invention contemplates compositions and methods to treat patients having a nervous system disorder with a formulation comprising an anticonvulsant and a neuroactive modulator. Also described is a method to predict the probability of a significant recovery when a treating an individual patient having a nervous system disorder with a formulation comprising an anticonvulsant and a neuroactive modulator. Specifically, methods for predicting patient prognosis include, but are not limited to, quantitative electroencephalography, psychometric test batteries, biological indicators, brain metabolic indicators, genotype profiles, neuroimaging, objective test measurements and multi-modalities. The present invention also discloses a device providing an organized dispensation of the above formulations such that the patient or medical personnel may easily and accurately decrease the daily dosage of a third drug and increase the daily dosage of a formulation comprising an anticonvulsant and a neuroactive modulator.

Electroencephalography Based Systems And Methods For Selecting Therapies And Predicting Outcomes

US Patent:
7177675, Feb 13, 2007
Filed:
Jul 11, 2002
Appl. No.:
10/193735
Inventors:
Stephen C. Suffin - Sherman Oaks CA, US
W. Hamlin Emory - Malibu CA, US
Leonard J. Brandt - Laguna Hills CA, US
Assignee:
CNS Response, Inc - Long Beach CA
International Classification:
A61B 5/02
US Classification:
600544, 600300
Abstract:
A method and system for utilizing neurophysiologic information obtained by techniques such as quantitative electroencephalography (QEEG), electrode recordings, MRI in appropriately matching patients with therapeutic entities is disclosed. The present invention enables utilization of neurophysiologic information, notwithstanding its weak correlation with extant diagnostic schemes for mental disorders, for safer and expeditious treatment for mental disorders, discovering new applications for therapeutic entities, improved testing of candidate therapeutic entities, inferring the presence or absence of a desirable response to a treatment, and deducing the mode of action of one or more therapeutic entities. In particular, methods for effectively comparing neurophysiologic information relative to a reference set are disclosed along with database-based tools for deducing therapeutic entity actions on particular patients such that these tools are readily accessible to remote users.
