Open the CIPO recordAbstract From the Canadian patent
The present invention relates to a method of detecting and monitoring genomic instability in a cell using three-dimensional analysis to assess telomeric and/or chromosomal organization. In addition the , invention relates to a method and system for characterizing the 3D organization of telomeres and/or chromosomes. The system includes an input module for inputting image data of the 3D organization of telomeres and/or chromosomes and a characteristic module for finding a parameter of the 3D organization. The invention also relates to the use of the three-dimensional analysis to detect, diagnose or monitor disease, particularly proliferative diseases such as cancer.

Why it's free to use
- Filed February 23, 2004 and granted January 15, 2019. A Canadian patent filed from October 1, 1989 lasts 20 years from filing, so its term ended February 23, 2024.
- A certificate of supplementary protection adds at most two years for a drug, so even that would have ended by February 23, 2026.
- We check Canadian rights only. A patent in its family in another country could still be in force: check its family on Google Patents.
