| 摘要 |
An object of the present invention is to provide biomarkers for predicting response to chemoradiotherapy for cancer and predicting prognosis of a patient with cancer, as well as methods of measuring such biomarkers. The response to chemoradiotherapy for cancer in a vertebrate animal can be predicted by measuring concentrations of a soluble interleukin-6 receptor, MIP-1², and an activated plasminogen activator inhibitor in the blood obtained from that individual with cancer before treatment with chemoradiotherapy, and prognosis of the same vertebrate animal can be determined by measuring a concentration of soluble interleukin-6 receptor. |
