ABSTRACT: Background
We have previously conducted the Sirolimus and Autophagy Inhibition in LAM (SAIL) trial, a phase 1 dose-escalation study of the combination of sirolimus and hydroxychloroquine in patients with lymphangioleiomyomatosis (LAM). The goal of the present study was to analyze sera from the SAIL trial to identify novel biomarkers that could shed light into disease pathogenesis and response to therapy.Methods
We used the DiscoveryMAP platform from Rules Based Medicine to simultaneously measure 279 analytes in sera collected at each visit from subjects enrolled in the SAIL trial. We used longitudinal regression and pathway analysis to examine analyte rate of change and corresponding effect on lung function and to identify networks and potential nodes of interest.Result
