Domain Description Revised From ICRi Use Cases

A scientist is trying to identify a new genetic biomarker for HER2/neu negative stage I breast cancer patients. The scientist queries for HER2/neu negative tissue specimens of Stage I breast cancer patients using services at his/her cancer center that also have corresponding microarray experiments. Analysis of the microarray experiments identify genes that are significantly over-expressed and under-expressed in a number of cases. The scientist decides that these results are significant, and related literature suggest a hypothesis that gene A may serve as a biomarker in HER2/neu negative Stage I breast cancer. To validate this hypothesis in a significant number of cases the scientist needs a larger data set, so he queries for all the HER2/neu negative specimens of Stage I breast cancer patients with corresponding microarray data and also for appropriate control data from other cancer centers. After retrieving the microarray experiments the scientist analyzes the data for over-expression of genes A.
