    The Development of Large-Scale De-Identified Biomedical Databases in the Age of Genomics—Principles and Challenges Fida K

    Dankar et al. Human Genomics (2018) 12:19 https://doi.org/10.1186/s40246-018-0147-5 REVIEW Open Access The development of large-scale de-identified biomedical databases in the age of genomics—principles and challenges Fida K. Dankar1* , Andrey Ptitsyn2 and Samar K. Dankar3 Abstract Contemporary biomedical databases include a wide range of information types from various observational and instrumental sources. Among the most important features that unite biomedical databases across the field are high volume of information and high potential to cause damage through data corruption, loss of performance, and loss of patient privacy. Thus, issues of data governance and privacy protection are essential for the construction of data depositories for biomedical research and healthcare. In this paper, we discuss various challenges of data governance in the context of population genome projects. The various challenges along with best practices and current research efforts are discussed through the steps of data collection, storage, sharing, analysis, and knowledge dissemination. Keywords: Biomedical database, Data privacy, Data governance, Whole genome sequencing Background first, now increasingly shifting to whole exome and whole Overview genome sequencing [2, 3]). The project started by Decode Databases are both the result and the instrument of has generated one of the best resources for discovery in research.

Received: 11 March 2010; in revised form: 31 March 2010 / Accepted: 19 April 2010 / Published: 20 April 2010 Abstract: Fibrolase is the fibrinolytic enzyme isolated from Agkistrodon contortrix contortrix (southern copperhead snake) venom. The enzyme was purified by a three-step HPLC procedure and was shown to be homogeneous by standard criteria including reverse phase HPLC, molecular sieve chromatography and SDS-PAGE. The purified enzyme is a zinc metalloproteinase containing one mole of zinc. It is composed of 203 amino acids with a blocked amino-terminus due to cyclization of the terminal Gln residue. Fibrolase shares a significant degree of homology with enzymes of the reprolysin sub-family of metalloproteinases including an active site homology of close to 100%; it is rapidly inhibited by chelating agents such as EDTA, and by alpha2-macroglobulin (). The enzyme is a direct-acting thrombolytic agent and does not rely on plasminogen for clot dissolution. Fibrolase rapidly cleaves the A()-chain of fibrinogen and the B()-chain at a slower rate; it has no activity on the -chain.

  • OSI Pharmaceuticals and AVEO Pharmaceuticals Expand Oncology Discovery and Translational Research Collaboration

    OSI Pharmaceuticals and AVEO Pharmaceuticals Expand Oncology Discovery and Translational Research Collaboration

    OSI Pharmaceuticals and AVEO Pharmaceuticals Expand Oncology Discovery and Translational Research Collaboration July 21, 2009 9:24 PM ET MELVILLE, NY and CAMBRIDGE, Mass., July 21, 2009 – OSI Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (NASDAQ:OSIP) and AVEO Pharmaceuticals, Inc. today announced that they have expanded the drug discovery and translational research collaboration announced in October of 2007. The alliance is anchored around developing molecular targeted therapies to target the underlying mechanisms of epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) in cancer and to develop proprietary datasets of associated patient selection biomarkers to support OSI’s targeted medicine pipeline. EMT is a process of emerging significance in tumor development and disease progression and the focal point of OSI’s proprietary oncology research efforts. The companies are expanding their efforts to validate cancer targets and to deploy key elements of AVEO’s proprietary translational research platform in support of OSI’s clinical development programs. Under the terms of the expanded discovery and research agreement, OSI will pay AVEO a total of $20 million at closing, $5 million of which is an upfront cash payment and $15 million of which is the purchase of additional equity in AVEO. OSI will also provide AVEO research funding over the next two years to support the collaboration, and the potential to achieve additional royalties and milestones. In return, OSI will immediately receive rights beyond the original collaboration including rights to additional EMT targets (including up to 4 antibody targets) and increased access to AVEO technology (i.e. tumor models, archives and biomarkers). OSI is also acquiring non-exclusive access to AVEO’s proprietary bioinformatics platform.

'Iceland Inc.'?: On the ethics of commercial population genomics Abstract A detailed analysis of the Icelandic commercial population-wide genomics database project of deCODE Genetics was performed for the purpose of providing ethics insights into public/private efforts to develop genetic databases. This analysis examines the moral differences between the general case of governmental collection of medical data for public health purposes and the centralized collection planned in Iceland. Both the process of developing the database and its design vary in significant ways from typical government data collection and analysis activities. Because of these differences, the database may serve the interests of deCODE more than it serves the interests of the public, undermining the claim that presumed consent for this data collection and its proprietary use is ethical.
