Computers, computer program products, and methods for identifying a
plurality of subjects for a clinical trial are provided. A candidate set
of molecular profiles in a stored plurality of molecular profiles are
identified. Each such profile has measurements for a discriminating set
of cellular constituents that match the measurements of corresponding
cellular constituents in a responder set of biological samples, thereby
identifying the plurality of subjects for the trial from those subjects
from which the candidate set of molecular profiles were derived. Each
respective molecular profile in the stored plurality of profiles has
measurements of a plurality of cellular constituents from a respective
biological sample in a plurality of samples obtained from a first
plurality of subjects. The discriminating set of cellular constituents is
identified from those cellular constituents in the plurality of cellular
constituents whose measurement values discriminates between the responder
and nonresponder sets of biological samples.
