Project description:This work presents a novel Consensus Molecular Subtypes (CMS) classifier for colorectal cancer (CRC), optimized for degraded RNA stemming from clinical formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded tissue samples.
Project description:Data includes all available Affymetrix SNP data from a cohort of Pediatric malignant glioma samples, isolated from Formalin-fixed Paraffin embedded tissue. No clinical data is available.
Project description:The requirement of frozen tissues for microarray experiments limits the clinical usage of genome-wide expression profiling using microarray technology. The goal of this study is to test the feasibility of developing lung cancer prognosis gene signatures using genome-wide expression profiling of formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) samples, which are widely available and provide a valuable rich source for studying the association of molecular changes in cancer and associated clinical outcomes. Keywords: Lung Cancer Prognosis, Gene Expression Signature, Formalin Fixed Paraffin Embedded Samples We micro dissected tumor area from FFPE specimen, and used Affymetrix U133 plus 2.0 arrays to obtain gene expression data.
Project description:RAS genotyping is mandatory for the prescription of anti-EGFR (epidermal growth factor receptor) therapies in patients with metastatic colorectal cancer. The standard genotyping is assessed on formalin-fixed paraffin embedded tumour tissue. This study compares RAS and BRAF genotyping results achieved in analyzing circulating plasma DNA using OncoBEAM technique with those achieved using the standard genotyping techniques and formalin-fixed paraffin embedded samples.
