    • Assignees:
      Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai (New York, NY, US)
    • Claim:
      1. A method for treating Alzheimer's Disease in a patient in need thereof, the method comprising detecting markers associated with at least one Alzheimer's Disease (AD) subtype in a biological sample from said patient, normalizing said marker levels, using a trained machine learning technique to provide a score for the AD subtype of said patient, comparing said score with a predetermined reference standard, determining said AD subtype, and providing a treatment for said AD subtype.
    • Claim:
      2. The method of claim 1, wherein said detecting markers is a Weighted Sample Correlation Network Analysis (WSCNA).
    • Claim:
      3. The method of claim 2, wherein said detecting identifies polynucleotide markers, polypeptide markers, or both.
    • Claim:
      4. The method of claim 3, wherein said polynucleotide markers are selected from the group consisting of: polynucleotide length, epigenetic markers, methylation levels, nucleotide sequence, copy number, single nucleotide polymorphisms, sequence expression levels, RNA expression, RNA stability, and sequence transpositions or translocations.
    • Claim:
      5. The method of claim 3, wherein said detecting identifies polypeptides, epitopes, or fragments.
    • Claim:
      6. The method of claim 2, wherein said biological sample is selected from the group consisting of: blood, cerebrospinal fluid, lymphatic tissue, cells, epithelial tissue, and adipose tissue.
    • Claim:
      7. The method of claim 2, wherein the at least one Alzheimer's Disease subtype is selected from the group consisting of: AD subtype A, AD subtype B1, AD subtype B2, AD subtype C1, and AD subtype C2.
    • Claim:
      8. The method of claim 2, comprising providing a therapeutically effective amount of a drug selected from the group consisting of: thioproperazine; nalbuphine; gabexate; mesoridazine; menadione; carbamazepine; diphenidol; epirizole; timolol; mestranol; naphazoline; hesperidin; ethisterone; amlodipine; amsacrine; febuxostat; famciclovir; ezetimibe; carbetocin; orphenadrine; hyoscyamine; amiodarone.hcl; erythromycin-ethylsuccinate; meclizine; dobutamine; phenazopyridine; spironolactone; meclofenamic-acid; parachorophenol; bemegride; ketorolac; and brinzolamide.
    • Claim:
      9. The method of claim 1, wherein the trained machine learning technique is selected from the group consisting of: Random Forest, hierarchical clustering, k-means clustering, MEGENA, Bayesian causal network, CNVnator, Pindel, MetaSV, Delly2, Quasipoisson regression, AdaBoost, logistic regression, decision tree, nearest neighbors (KNN), support vector machines (SVM), naïve Bayes, multi-layer perceptron, and Ensemble.
    • Claim:
      10. A computer-implemented method to predict an AD subtype of a subject, the method comprising: obtaining data concerning specific characteristics of a biological sample collected from a subject; providing said data as input to a trained machine learning technique, wherein the technique determines the AD subtype based on the data; wherein the AD subtype is any one of: AD subtype A, AD subtype B1, AD subtype B2, AD subtype C1, or AD subtype C2; and obtaining, from the machine learning technique, the predicted AD subtype.
    • Claim:
      11. The method of claim 10, wherein said machine learning technique is a Weighted Sample Correlation Network Analysis (WSCNA).
    • Claim:
      12. The method of claim 10, wherein said biological sample is selected from the group consisting of: blood, cerebrospinal fluid, lymphatic tissue, cells, epithelial tissue, and adipose tissue.
    • Claim:
      13. The method of claim 10, wherein said data comprises information concerning polynucleotide markers, polypeptide markers, or both.
    • Claim:
      14. The method of claim 13, wherein said polynucleotide markers are selected from the group consisting of: sequence length, epigenetic markers, methylation levels, sequence code, copy number, single nucleotide polymorphisms, sequence expression levels, RNA expression, RNA stability, and sequence transpositions or translocations.
    • Claim:
      15. The method of claim 13, wherein said data comprises information concerning polypeptides, epitopes, or fragments.
    • Claim:
      16. The method of claim 10, wherein the trained machine learning technique is selected from the group consisting of: Random Forest, hierarchical clustering, k-means clustering, MEGENA, Bayesian causal network, CNVnator, Pindel, MetaSV, Delly2, Quasipoisson regression, AdaBoost, logistic regression, decision tree, nearest neighbors (KNN), support vector machines (SVM), naïve Bayes, multi-layer perceptron, and Ensemble
    • Claim:
      17. A method for treating Alzheimer's in a subject in need thereof, the method comprising: receiving the AD subtype of the subject, which has been obtained using the method of claim 11 and administering a therapeutically effective amount of drug for targeting the obtained AD subtype.
    • Claim:
      18. The method of claim 17, comprising administering a therapeutically effective amount of a drug selected from the group consisting of: thioproperazine; nalbuphine; gabexate; mesoridazine; menadione; carbamazepine; diphenidol; epirizole; timolol; mestranol; naphazoline; hesperidin; ethisterone; amlodipine; amsacrine; febuxostat; famciclovir; ezetimibe; carbetocin; orphenadrine; hyoscyamine; amiodarone.hcl; erythromycin-ethylsuccinate; meclizine; dobutamine; phenazopyridine; spironolactone; meclofenamic-acid; parachorophenol; bemegride; ketorolac; and brinzolamide.
