Abstract

See full text

The present invention relates to a method and kit for in vitro diagnosing a complex disease such as cancer, in particular, acute myeloid leukemia (AML), colon cancer, kidney cancer, prostate cancer; transient ischemic attack (TIA), ischemia, in particular stroke, hypoxia, hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy, perinatal brain damage, hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy of neotatals asphyxia; demyelinating disease, in particular, white-matter disease, periventricular leukoencephalopathy, multiple sclerosis, Alzheimer and Parkinson's disease; in a biological sample. For the diagnosis, use is made of measuring at least two different species of biomolecules and classifying the results by means of suitable classifier algorithms and other statistical procedures. With the present invention, a significant improvement of the reliability of e.g. expression profiles alone, are achieved. In other words, in a defined collective, an up to 100% accurate positive diagnosis could be achieved, which renders the method of the present invention superior over the prior art.
