  • Specimen Patients who received comprehensive consent before surgery (breast cancer patients whose disease type is TN type and stage is 2a or 2b) ) Surgical specimens that have been cryopreserved in 3) have been diagnosed as having recurrence (with lymph node metastasis during surgery) or without recurrence (no lymph node metastasis during surgery) 3 years after surgery It was used.
  • the present invention it is possible to objectively determine and predict the risk of breast cancer metastasis or recurrence by examining the primary lesion of breast cancer collected before or during surgery. This can be expected to contribute to the medical field and clinical laboratory field.

Abstract

L'invention concerne une technique pour évaluer objectivement, rapidement et avec une précision élevée la présence ou l'absence de l'effet d'un médicament, le risque d'une récidive ou la possibilité d'une métastase lors d'une chimiothérapie d'un cancer du sein. L'invention concerne un procédé pour évaluer la métastase d'un cancer du sein ou le risque d'une récidive d'un cancer du sein chez un patient souffrant d'un cancer du sein, ledit procédé comprenant une étape de mesure du niveau d'expression d'au moins un produit d'expression de l'ADN contenant un domaine d'initiation de transcription dans un échantillon biologique dérivé d'un tissu cancéreux prélevé sur le patient.
