IPC: G16B5/00
Filed: 2012-12-14
Abstract: The disclosure relates to a programmable cancer cell model that may be customized to simulate the effect of gene mutations, for example mutations identified from a particular cancer patient's tissue sample. The simulation may be used to assess the likelihood of a candidate treatment resulting in stable remission for the patient. The model makes use of a fuzzy cognitive map (FCM) simulator that employs a matrix to represent healthy cell signaling relationships and an input disease vector representing one or more genetic mutations. The disease state vector is multiplied by the matrix to produce a stable diseased cell state vector after multiple iterations. A candidate treatment may then be proposed, based upon the diseased cell state vector. After multiple iterations with a treatment vector, the efficacy of the proposed treatment on the patient's particular cancer can be assessed, reducing reliance on the traditional trial and error approach.
