GENE FOR PREDICTING THE PROGNOSIS FOR EARLY-STAGE BREAST CANCER, AND A METHOD FOR PREDICTING THE PROGNOSIS FOR EARLY-STAGE BREAST CANCER BY USING THE SAME

摘要

The present invention relates to a method for selecting a gene intended to predict the prognosis for a cancer, to the selected gene for predicting the prognosis of cancer and to a kit for predicting and a method for predicting metastasis in breast-cancer patients by using the same. In the present invention, a straightforward method is used to achieve high-reliability prediction of the patient's prognosis by analysing for the genetic characteristics of early stage breast cancer, and thus the present invention can be used to advantage in prognosis diagnosis which can reduce unnecessary anticancer therapy.
