Title: Procede d'utilisation de l'integrite d'arn tumoral pour mesurer la reponse a la chimiotherapie chez des patients atteints de cancer
Inventor: PARISSENTI AMADEO MARK
IPC: G01N33/574
Filed: 2008-09-05
Granted: 2018-08-14
Abstract: L'invention concerne des tumeurs cancéreuses qui varient significativement dans leur réponse à des agents chimiothérapeutiques. Actuellement, il est difficile d'évaluer fiablement le niveau de la réaction tumorale à un régime de chimiothérapie pendant l'administration ou post-administration. Des biomarqueurs de la sensibilité tumorale à des agents chimiothérapeutiques sont à ce jour inconnus. Un tel biomarqueur pourrait accélérer l'identification des patients insensibles, qui peuvent alors adopter d'autres régimes éventuellement plus efficaces. L'invention concerne un procédé permettant de déterminer la réaction tumorale à un agent chimiothérapeutique, dans laquelle ARN est isolé des cellules tumorales d'un patient avant, pendant et après la chimiothérapie. La qualité de l'ARN peut être déterminée par électrophorèse capillaire et affectation d'un numéro d'intégrité d'ARN (RIN). Les valeurs de RIN pendant et/ou après la chimiothérapie sont inversement proportionnelles au niveau de réaction tumorale. Le RIN tumoral est un biomarqueur facilement accessible de la réaction tumorale à la chimiothérapie. On peut également l'utiliser pour évaluer l'efficacité d'un régime chimiothérapeutique.

Abstract: A monitoring system is disclosed, designed to detect the depth of deposition of a substance on a surface, such as the depth of dust in a ventilation shaft. The monitoring system includes a light source and a sensor. The light source is arranged to transmit light across a detection surface and the sensor is on the other side of the detection surface. When a substance, such as dirt or grease, is deposited on the surface it obstructs the light and the amount of light reaching the sensor decreases. A  processing means detects the decrease in light and from this the depth of the deposition on the surface can be calculated. Preferably the sensor comprises a CCD  array, and the substance throws a shadow on the array. The processing means can then determine the depth of the substance from the position on the array of the edge of the shadow. Preferably the monitoring system is placed in a low power "sleep"  mode in between intermittent operations for detecting the depth of the substance.  In this way, it can be battery operated and the battery life is preserved.

Abstract: A method of establishing fluid communication between a well pair in an oil-sand reservoir is provided, where dilatable oil sands in the reservoir form a barrier to fluid communication between the well pair. Steam or water is circulated within at least one well to apply a steam or water pressure to a region of the oil sands adjacent to the well. The steam or water pressure is increased to a dilation pressure sufficient to dilate the oil sands in the region. While circulating steam or water within the well at a substantially steady state, the steam or water pressure is maintained at a level sufficient to enlarge the dilated region, until detection of a signal indicative of fluid communication between the well pair. The rates of steam or water injection and production may be monitored and adjusted, and the steam or water pressure may be controlled by adjusting the rate of steam or water injection or production to vary a bottom-hole pressure in the well.
