Hello,
the package WGCNA contains the function collapseRows that uses simple
statistical approaches to summarize different (or duplicate) probes
for the same gene. The method is described here:

Horvath S (2011) Strategies for aggregating gene expression data: The
collapseRows R function. BMC Bioinformatics12:322. PMID: 21816037,
PMCID: PMC3166942
The web page for data and R code from the article is

HTH,
Peter
