ANLN PROTEIN AS AN ENDOCRINE TREATMENT PREDICTIVE FACTOR

摘要

The present invention provides methods, uses and means for breast cancer prognostics and treatment prediction. Provided methods comprises the steps of: providing a sample earlier obtained from a breast cancer subject; evaluating the amount of ANLN protein present in at least part of said sample, and determining a sample value corresponding to said amount; comparing the sample value with a reference value; and, if said sample value is higher than said reference value, concluding that the subject is not likely to benefit from an endocrine treatment or that a prognosis for said subject is worse than a reference prognosis associated with the reference value.
