METHOD FOR EVALUATING AND METHOD FOR MONITORING THERAPEUTIC EFFECT IN CRITICAL LIMB ISCHEMIA PATIENT AFTER ANGIOGENIC THERAPY, REAGENT FOR EVALUATING THERAPEUTIC EFFECT, AND DEVICE AND COMPUTER PROGRAM FOR EVALUATING THERAPEUTIC EFFECT

摘要

Provided is a method whereby therapeutic effect in a critical limb ischemia patient after angiogenic therapy can be objectively evaluated with minimal patient burden. The problem addressed by the present invention is solved by a method for evaluating a therapeutic effect in a critical limb ischemia patient who has undergone angiogenic therapy. The evaluation method includes, a measurement step for measuring a VEGF-A165b concentration in a blood of the critical limb ischemia patient and an evaluation step for evaluating the therapeutic effect taking changes over time in the measured VEGF-A165b concentration as an indicator.
