Title:
TUMOR ANALYSIS SYSTEM
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2022/138351
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
The present invention provides a system for analyzing the composition of cells in a tumor specimen. This system is characterized by including at least a calculation unit and is characterized in that at least one storage apparatus included in the system or connected to the system includes: the cell composition of a cancer clone obtained from cells included in the tumor specimen on the basis of gene mutation information; and the cell composition of normal cells obtained from cells included in the tumor specimen on the basis of a gene expression level, the system also being characterized in that the calculation unit executes: a step for adjusting the abundance ratios of each cell species, such that the total of the abundance ratios of each cell species is X (X is a constant of 0 to 1 inclusive and is a parameter designated by a user of the system) with respect to the cell composition of the cancer clone and the cell composition of the normal cells read out from the storage apparatus while taking it into consideration that normal cells are included in the unclassified cells out of the cell composition of the cancer clone; and a step for outputting the cell composition of the tumor specimen after the adjustment.
