Abstract:
The present invention relates to a gene for predicting or diagnosing the prognosis of early-stage breast cancer and to a use thereof, and more specifically relates to a genetic marker for predicting or diagnosing the prognosis of breast cancer, including TRBC1 (T cell receptor beta constant 1), BTN3A2 (butyrophilin, subfamily 3, member A2) or HLA-DPA1 (major histocompatibility complex, class II, DP alpha 1) for providing information necessary for predicting or diagnosing the prognosis of a breast cancer patient. The genetic marker of the present invention allows the prediction or diagnosis of the prognosis of a breast cancer patient, and can therefore advantageously be used for the purpose of providing a direction as to the future course of breast cancer treatment, including a decision on whether anticancer therapy is necessary.
Abstract:
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 straight forward 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.
