The present invention relates to extracellular microvesicles biomarkers for determining the tumour transformation status or presence of a tumour in a subject, and to the uses of such biomarkers and to diagnostics methods using such biomarkers. In particular, the methods and uses of the invention involve isolation of TM9SF4-positive extracellular vesicles and detection of the expression of a second biomarker, preferably selected from the group consisting of CD9 protein, mi R-21 and RNU6. |
