BIOINFORMATICS PROCESS FOR IDENTIFYING AT RISK SUBJECT POPULATIONS

A bioinformatics method for determining a risk score that indicates a risk that a subject will experience a negative clinical event within a certain period of time. The risk score is based on a combination of activities of two or more cellular signaling pathways in a subject, such as a human, wherei...

Zusammenfassung:A bioinformatics method for determining a risk score that indicates a risk that a subject will experience a negative clinical event within a certain period of time. The risk score is based on a combination of activities of two or more cellular signaling pathways in a subject, such as a human, wherein the specific cellular signaling pathways are the PI3K pathway and one or more of a Wnt pathway, an ER pathway, and an HH pathway. The invention also includes an apparatus with a digital processor configured to perform such a method, to a non-transitory storage medium storing instructions that are executable by a digital processing device to perform such a method, and to a computer program comprising program code means for causing a digital processing device to perform such a method. The invention achieves advanced prognosis of negative clinical events, for example, disease progression, recurrence, development of metastasis, or even death.
