METHOD OF USING GENE EXPRESSION TO DETERMINE LIKELIHOOD OF CLINICAL OUTCOME OF RENAL CANCER

摘要

To provide a method for predicting a likely clinical outcome of renal cancer patient.SOLUTION: The method is characterized by: measuring a level of an RNA transcript, or its gene product, of a gene and a gene set, the expression of which is important in classification and/or prognosis of cancer, in particular of renal cell carcinoma; and predicting a clinical outcome on the basis of the expression level.SELECTED DRAWING: None
