Abstract
One type of tissue-based assay, the companion diagnostic ('CDx') allows for the identification of individuals within a larger patient population who are more likely to respond to a therapy. The CDx paradigm typically applies to drugs that target a specific gene product or biologic pathway involving a gene product of interest. It is possible, especially for popular therapeutic targets, for multiple drugs and multiple associated CDx to be developed for a single gene product or biologic pathway involving the gene product. Currently, each of these similar CDx must be applied to identify the best therapy. The present invention can determine the outcome of one CDx using an image of a tissue section used for another CDx. Using a single tissue section and a single CDx, it becomes possible to obtain the outcome of multiple, related CDx.
