Gene expression data provides a basis for more accurate identification and diagnosis of lymphoproliferative disorders. In addition, gene expression data can be used to develop more accurate predictors of survival. The present invention discloses methods for identifying, diagnosing, and predicting survival in a lymphoma or lymphoproliferative disorder on the basis of gene expression patterns. The invention discloses a novel microarray, the Lymph Dx microarray, for obtaining gene expression data from a lymphoma sample. The invention also discloses a variety of methods for utilizing iymphoma gene expression data to determine the identity of a particular lymphoma and to predict survival in a subject diagnosed with a particular lymphoma. This information will be useful in developing the therapeutic approach to be used with a particular subject.

L'invention concerne l'utilisation de données d'expression génique constituant une base d'identification et de diagnostic plus précise pour les maladies lymphoprolifératives. On peut aussi utiliser ces données pour établir des éléments de prédiction plus précis concernant la survie des lymphomes. L'invention concerne des procédés d'identification, de diagnostic et de prédiction pour la survie de lymphome ou de maladie lymphoproliférative, sur la base de profils d'expression génique. On décrit un microréseau, appelé Lymph Dx, qui fournit les données d'expression génique à partir d'un échantillon de lymphome. L'invention concerne en outre une série de procédés relatifs à l'utilisation des données considérées visant à déterminer l'identité d'un lymphome particulier et la prédiction de survie chez un sujet, pour lequel on a diagnostiqué un lymphome particulier. L'information en question est utile pour la définition d'une approche thérapeutique personnalisée.
