DIAGNOSTIC AND PROGNOSTIC BIOMARKERS FOR CANCER

摘要

A method for detecting cancer from a biological sample previously withdrawn from the subject, in a subject includes determining in vitro the level of at least one biomarker in the biological sample. The at least one biomarker includes a phospholipid or a free fatty acid. A level of the at least one biomarker that is 2-fold greater than the level of at least one biomarker in a control is indicative of cancer in the subject.
