Abstract

See full text

Presented herein are novel protein biomarkers related to cancers with stromal components. These newly identified biomarkers create the basis for multiple (single) assays using traditional bioassay technologies and when used in combination yield exceptional clinical sensitivity and specificity in the determination of diagnosis and/or prognosis of cancer. A new genetic model able to identify potential genetic suppressors and/or potential therapeutic agents for treating stromal cancers is also described. Means and methods for evaluating data generated using multiple biomarkers in order to validate findings and further the use of the biomarkers and the genetic model system in clinical, diagnostic and therapeutic uses is also included.
