- Urinary tract epithelial cancer (bladder cancer, renal pelvic and ureteral cancer, etc.) is the second most common urinary tract cancer after prostate cancer, and the number of bladder cancers alone in Japan is 7886 in males and 2697 in females (1994, The Cancer Research Foundation) killed 2856 men and 1277 women (1997, same). By the way, in the United States, it ranks fifth in male cancer patients in all areas. Since about 70% of these patients recur in the urinary tract, it is estimated that there will be tens of thousands of patients in Japan alone, including follow-up cases.

It has been reported that recently developed auxiliary diagnostic methods such as BTA (bladder tumor antigen) and NMP22 (nuclear matrix protein 22) have slightly improved sensitivity compared to urine cytology. However, false positives are likely to appear in gross hematuria and cystitis. Because of this low specificity, it has not reached a position beyond urine cytology.

- Negative reactive predictive value 101/109 92.7% urine calreticulin protein was detected in urinary cytology patients with positive urothelial carcinoma and patients with negative urothelial carcinoma, respectively. The results obtained from the detection were compared. The results are shown in Table 2 below. Table 2 Relationship with urine cytology results in urothelial carcinoma cases
- Fig. 1 shows the results of the immunoblot.
- the method of the present invention can detect calreticulin protein even when the size of the cancer is small or the malignancy is low, and thereby, urothelial carcinoma can be detected. .
- urothelial carcinoma can be effectively detected by a simple and inexpensive method, early detection, diagnosis and treatment of urothelial carcinoma become possible.
- urothelial carcinoma can be detected noninvasively using urine of a patient, so that urothelial carcinoma can be detected simply and quickly.
