BIOMARKERS FOR CERVICAL CANCER

摘要

The present invention relates to biomarkers for chemoradioresistant subtypes of cervical cancer. In particular the present invention relates to a method for predicting a predisposition to a chemoradioresistant cervical cancer in a subject, a method for diagnosing a chemoradioresistant cervical cancer in a subject, a method for predicting the likelihood of recurrence of cervical cancer in a cervical cancer patient under treatment, and a method for predicting the prognosis for a patient with a chemoradioresistant cervical cancer.

主权项

1. A kit for detecting loss of gene expression associated with cervical cancer, consisting essentially of:
a) a first gene expression informative reagent for identification of loss or decrease of gene expression of a first gene located at the chromosomal region 3p11.2-p14.2; and b) a second gene expression informative reagent for identification of loss or decrease of gene expression of a second gene located at the chromosomal region 3p11.2-p14.2.
