Some embodiments are related to a method for determining if a subject has an increased likelihood of high grade dysplasia (HGD) or esophagal adenocarcinoma (EC). An exemplary method can include providing a sample from an AFI patch of the subject's esophagus, assaying the sample for (i) aneuploidy, and (ii) abnormal p53, and (iii) abnormal Cyclin A, wherein if the sample shows the presence of at least two of (i), (ii) and (iii), then the subject is determined as having an increased likelihood of high grade dysplasia (HGD) or esophagal adenocarcinoma (EC). The invention also relates to certain methods of medical treatment. |
