摘要:
The present invention describes a method for determining whether an individual is likely to suffer from cancer by determining a parameter representing the TIMP-1 concentration in body fluid samples from the individual.
摘要:
The present invention relates to methods of diagnosing the presence of a non-specific disease or disorder in a subject, wherein a determined level of YKL-40 above a reference level indicates the presence of a non-specific disease or disorder. The subject may suffer from a variety of diseases or disorders. The reference level may be a reference level obtained from healthy individuals or it may be a previous measurement obtained from the same subject. The present invention furthermore relates to a method for classifying the severity of a non-specific disease or disorder in a subject, wherein a determined level of YKL-40 above or below one or more reference levels gives the severity of said non-specific disease or disorder. The present invention further relates to a kit and a device that may be used in the method of the present invention comprising means for measuring the level of YKL-40 in a sample; and means for comparing the measured level of YKL-40 with at least one reference level of YKL-40.

The present invention describes a method for determining whether an individual is suffering from cancer by determining a parameter representing the TIMP-1 concentration in body fluid samples from the individual.The present invention furthermore describes a method for determining whether an individual is suffering from minimal residual disease or recurrent cancer after being treated for the primary cancer by determining a parameter representing the post-operative TIMP-1 concentration in body fluid samples from the individual. In addition, the invention describes the additive effect of combined post-operative measurements of plasma TIMP-1 and serum CEA.

The present invention relates to gastrointestinal cancers and methods for selecting a treatment for said gastrointestinal cancer in a subject. The present invention further relates to a methods of diagnosing the presence of and/or classifying the severity of a gastrointestinal cancer; together with methods for determining the effect of a therapy administered and/or the prognosis for a subject suffering from a gastrointestinal cancer, before, during or after administering the treatment. For all the methods applies that a determined level of YKL-40 above one or more reference levels indicates the treatment, the severity of the disease, the effect of the treatment and/or the prognosis of the subject. The reference level is typically a level obtained from healthy individuals or a level previously obtained from the same subject. The subject may suffer from any one or more gastrointestinal cancers, such as upper gastrointestinal cancers, and metastatic colorectal cancer. The present invention further relates to a kit and a device that may be used in the method of the present invention.

The present invention relates to a methods for selecting a treatment for a specific disease or disorder, together with a method of monitoring therapeutic treatment of a specific disease or disorder and a method of determining a prognosis for a subject before, during and after administering a treatment by determining the level of YKL-40 in a sample obtained from the subject and comparing said level with one or more reference levels of YKL-40. The reference level is typically a level obtained from healthy individuals or a level previously obtained from the same subject. The present invention further relates to a kit and a device that may be used in the methods of the present invention.
摘要:
The present invention relates to methods of classifying the severity of a non-specific disease or disorder in a subject, wherein a determined level of YKL-40 is compared to one or more reference levels of YKL-40, and the severity of said non-specific disease or disorder is deduced from said comparison. The present invention furthermore relates to a method of classifying the severity of a disease or disorder in a subject, wherein a determined level of YKL-40 is compared to one or more previously determined levels of YKL-40 from the same subject. In both methods, the subject may suffer from a variety of diseases or disorders. In addition the present invention relates to a kit and a device that may be used in the methods of the present invention comprising means for measuring the level of YKL-40 in a sample; and means for comparing the measured level of YKL-40 with one or more reference levels of YKL-40.
