GENE EXPRESSION PROFILING FOR THE IDENTIFICATION, MONITORING, AND TREATMENT OF PROSTATE CANCER

摘要

A method is provided in various embodiments for determining a profile data set for a subject with prostate cancer or a condition related to prostate cancer based on a sample from the subject, wherein the sample provides a source of RNAs. The method includes using amplification for measuring the amount of RNA corresponding to at least 1 constituent from Table 1 and/or Table 8 in conjunction with PSA. The profile data set comprises the measure of each constituent, and amplification is performed under measurement conditions that are substantially repeatable.
