(54) Title: METHODS AND COMPOSITIONS FOR CLASSIFICATION OF SAMPLES (57) Abstract: Disclosed herein are kits, compositions, and methods relating to the classification of samples. Methods disclosed herein can also be used to diagnose conditions or to support treatment-related decisions. METHODS AND COMPOSITIONS FOR CLASSIFICATION OF SAMPLES CROSS REFERENCE [0001] This application claims priority to U.S. Provisional Patent Application No. 61/798,941, filed on March 15, 2013, which is entirely incorporated herein by reference. BACKGROUND [0002] Cancer is one of the leading causes of mortality worldwide; yet for many patients, the process of simply clearing the first step of obtaining an accurate diagnosis is often a frustrating and time-consuming experience. This is true of many cancers, including thyroid cancer. This is also particularly true of relatively rare diseases, such as Hurthle cell adenomas and carcinomas, which account for approximately 5% of thyroid neoplasms. [0003] An inaccurate diagnosis of cancer can lead to unnecessary follow-up procedures, including costly surgical procedures, not to mention unnecessary emotional distress to the patient. In the case of thyroid cancer, it is estimated that out of the approximately 130,000 thyroid removal surgeries performed each year due to suspected malignancy in the United States, only about 54,000 are necessary; therefore, tens of thousands of unnecessary thyroid removal surgeries are performed annually. Continued treatment costs and complications due to the need for lifelong drug therapy to replace the lost thyroid function can cause further economic and physical harm. SUMMARY [0004] The present disclosure provides for a method for diagnosing and/or treating a subject suspected of having a disease such as cancer. In some embodiments, the method comprises isolating ribonucleic acid (RNA) from a biological sample obtained from the subject; identifying one or more mutations within a first region of interest in the RNA sample; comparing a frequency of variation for each base pair position in the first region of interest of the RNA sample to one or more references to identify one or more mutations that are correlated with the cancer; comparing the one or more mutations identified to the one or more mutations identified, to identify the presence of absence of at least one mutation; repeating the previous steps for a second region of interest of the RNA sample to generate a mutation profile for the RNA, wherein the second region of interest is different from the first region of interest; and diagnosing and/or treating the subject based on the mutation profile. In some embodiments, the steps may be repeated at least 2, 10 or 100 times. [0005] In some embodiments, one or more references comprise frequencies of variation for single base pairs in a reference sequence, wherein the frequencies of variation in the reference sequence are derived from at least 1000 individuals. In some embodiments one or more references of comprise frequencies of variation for single base pairs in a reference sequence, wherein the frequencies of variation in the reference sequence are derived from a known cancer. In some embodiments one or more references comprise frequencies of variation for single base pairs in a reference sequence, wherein the frequencies of variation in the reference sequence are derived from at least 40 samples. [0006] In some embodiments a call score is assigned to each mutation identified in the RNA. In some embodiments, a mutation profile of is generated using the COSMIC database of known sites of somatic variations in cancer. [0007] In some embodiments the identification of the presence or absence of one or more mutations is at least 90%, 95%, or 100% accurate. [0008] This disclosure also provides for a method for detecting and normalizing 3'-5 ' amplification bias in microarray sample data generated from a nucleic acid sample from a subject, the method comprising obtaining a biological sample from a subject, wherein the biological sample comprises a nucleic acid sample; amplifying the nucleic acid sample to generate one or more amplicons, wherein the nucleic acid sample is amplified with the aid of one or more probes; generating a nucleic acid sequence read for an individual amplicon among the one or more amplicons; for each individual amplicon among the one or more amplicons, calculating, with the aid of a computer processor, the extent of a 3' bias for a given probe among the one or more probes upon a comparison of a nucleic acid sequence of the given probe to a nucleic acid sequence of the individual amplicon generated in (c); and applying a normalization procedure to correct for the 3' bias for a given probe. [0009] In some embodiments, the nucleic acid is an mR A transcript. In some embodiments calculating the extent of the 3' bias further comprises determining the effective distance from the 3' end of the mRNA transcript and the given probe. In some embodiments calculating the extent of the 3' bias further comprises determining the effective distance from one or more sites or sequences in the mRNA transcript and the given probe. In some embodiments calculating the extent of the 3' bias further comprises calculating a distance or median weighted distance between the given probe and one or more downstream polyA sites or sequences within the mRNA transcript, wherein the weighted distance is determined by read counts associated with each polyA site in the mRNA transcript. In some embodiments calculating the extent of the 3' bias further comprises comparing variability of paired intensity profiles of two or more identical probes, wherein the intensity profiles are obtained from two or more independent sets of microarray data, wherein each microarray data set is generated from an identical biological sample. [0010] In some embodiments comparing variability of paired intensity profiles of two or more identical probes further comprises performing a per-transcript alignment of probes within the mRNA transcript to calculate the effective distance. In some embodiments the normalization procedure further comprises generating a normalization target distribution. In some embodiments the normalization procedure further comprises quantile normalization, wherein probes are grouped into bins, and a quantile normalization is applied to each probe within each bin to normalize the median intensity of probes across a bin. In some embodiments the normalization procedure removes application bias from sample data. [0011] In some embodiments summarization methods are applied to normalized probe intensities and used to improve detection of differential gene expression in the microarray sample data. [0012] This disclosure also provides for a method for the detection of heterogeneity present in microarray data, the method comprising generating hypothetical microarray data from a mixture of one or more samples in silico; generating one or models from the hypothetical microarray data; obtaining microarray data from a mixture of one or more samples performed in vitro; comparing the one or more models of (b) to the data obtained in and based upon the comparison, assessing the strength of the one or more models. [0013] In some embodiments the strength of the one or more models is determined by comparing mean squared error between the model generated and the data obtained.

Great progress has also been achieved in the rehabilitation of disabilities. However, there is still a big group of diseases defined as rare, treatment of which has been traditionally neglected by the drug companies mainly due to unprofitability. Since 2000 the treatment of rare diseases has been supported at the European level and in 2007 paediatric legislation was introduced. Both decisions together support treatment of rare diseases in children. In this paper, we shortly characterise the possibilities of rare diseases treatment in children in the Slovak republic and bring the list of orphan medicine products (OMPs) with defined dosing in paediatrics, which were launched in the Slovak market. We also bring a list of OMPs with defined dosing in children, which are not available in the national market. This incentive may help in further formation of the national plan for treating rare diseases as well as improvement in treatment options and availability of rare disease treatment in children in Slovakia.

Medical, Economic and Public Health Assessment Division 1 1 CHARACTERISTICS OF THE MEDICINAL PRODUCT 1.1. Active ingredient sapropterin dihydrochloride 1 1.2. Indications "KUVAN is indicated for the treatment of hyperphenylalaninaemia (HPA) in adults and children aged four or over suffering from phenylketonuria (PKU) who have been shown to be responsive to such treatment. KUVAN is also indicated for the treatment of hyperphenylalaninaemia (HPA) in adults and children aged four or over with tetrahydrobiopterin (BH4) deficiency who have been shown to be responsive to such treatment." N.B.: Hyperphenylalaninaemia (HPA), which is an abnormal elevation of blood phenylalanine levels, is normally caused by autosomal recessive mutations of the genes coding for phenylalanine hydroxylase (in the case of PKU) or for the enzymes involved in the biosynthesis or regeneration of 6R-tetrahydrobiopterin (6R-BH4) (in the case of BH4 deficiency). The aim of administering KUVAN to patients suffering from PKU who are responsive to BH4 is to boost the activity of the defective phenylalanine hydroxylase and, as a consequence, to increase or sufficiently restore the oxidative metabolism of phenylalanine in order to reduce or maintain blood phenylalanine levels, to prevent or reduce the build-up of phenylalanine and to increase tolerance of dietary phenylalanine.

  • Appraisal of NICE's Cost-Effectiveness Thresholds for Assessing Orphan
    Master's Degree Dissertation Appraisal of NICE’s cost-effectiveness thresholds for assessing orphan drugs Author: Ruodan Nan Master's Degree in Health Economics and Pharmacoeconomics UPF Barcelona School of Management Academic Year 2018 – 2021 Mentor: Laura Vallejo 1 Project performed within the framework of the Health Economics and Pharmacoeconomics program taught by Barcelona School of Management, a centre associated with Pompeu Fabra University 2 Abstract A rare disease is one that affects less than 1 in 2,000 in general population, and they are often chronic and life-threatening [1]. Due to the high cost to develop and small market for orphan drugs, historically manufacturers are reluctantly to explore the rare disease therapeutic areas. There is highly unmet need from patients with rare diseases. As the pharmaceutical expenditure rises, governments around the world are increasingly under pressure to contain the costs on drug reimbursement. Meanwhile patients with rare diseases need to be ensured for access to orphan drugs, and the industry needs to be incentivized to innovate. Health technology assessment and reimbursement bodies set out measures and policies for orphan drugs to be given market access. In this literature review, the landscape of health technology appraisals for orphan drugs in England UK is studied. The process for an orphan drug to gain marketing authorisation in the European Union (EU), the methods and criteria that used by National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE) are reviewed. All orphan drugs with marketing authorisations from European Medicine Agency (EMA) are searched from the agency’s online database, whereas each of the authorised orphan drug is searched in NICE’s database for any technology appraisals and recommendations made for the orphan drug.
