Marker for pancreatic cancer and intraductal papillary mucinous tumors

摘要

The purpose of the present invention is to provide a marker that indicates pancreatic cancer and intraductal papillary mucinous tumors, with high sensitivity and specificity. Furthermore, the purpose of the present invention is also to provide a diagnostic kit for pancreatic cancer and intraductal papillary mucinous tumors, which detects this marker, and a method for evaluating metastatic pancreatic cancer and intraductal papillary mucinous tumors, using the marker. This marker of pancreatic cancer and intraductal papillary mucinous tumors is characterized by including one or more proteins, selected from the group consisting of secretoglobin family-1D member 2, and podocalyxin-like protein. Furthermore, this diagnostic kit for pancreatic cancer and intraductal papillary mucinous tumors is characterized by including an antibody for one or more proteins selected from the group consisting of secretoglobin family-1D member 2, and podocalyxin-like protein.
