Patent CA-2516795-A1 (CA)
Inventor: TERSTAPPEN LEON W M M
IPC: G01N33/567
Filed: 2004-02-26
Abstract: A cancer test having prognostic utility in predicting time to disease progression, overall survival, and response to therapy in patients with MBC  based upon the presence and number of CTC's. The Cell Spotter® System is used to enumerate CTC's in blood. The system immunomagnetically concentrates epithelial cells, fluorescently labels the cells and identifies and quantifies CTC's. The absolute number of CTC's detected in the peripheral blood tumor load is, in part, a factor in prediction of survival, time to progression, and response to therapy. The mean time to survival of patients depended upon a threshold number of 5 CTC's per 7.5 ml of blood. Detection of CTC's in metastatic cancer represents a novel prognostic factor in patients with metastatic cancers, suggests a biological role for the presence of tumor cells in the blood, and indicates that the detection of CTC's could be considered an appropriate surrogate marker for prospective therapeutic clinical trials.

Abstract: A tubular drawbar having at each end thereof a pair of spaced apart tab members integrally attached to one side of the drawbar. In an assembly position, when harrow hooks for supporting a harrowing section are initially placed onto the drawbar, the tab members are positioned on a side of the drawbar distal to that of the towing vehicle. Once the harrow hooks have been placed, the drawbar is then rotated to assume a working position, whereby each of the pair of spaced apart tab members likewise also rotate to assume a position proximal to that of the towing vehicle, thereby retaining the outermost harrow hooks securely therebetween, so that the harrowing section cannot become unhooked during use. Coupling means are also provided on a side of the drawbar, whereby the drawbar and harrowing section can be connected to a vehicle for towing.
