Title:
METHOD FOR PREDICTING PROGNOSIS OF BREAST CANCER PATIENT
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2018/093236
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a method for predicting the prognosis of a breast cancer patient. More specifically, to provide information needed to predict the prognosis of a breast cancer patient, the method for predicting the prognosis of breast cancer including the following steps of the present invention comprises: (a) obtaining a biological sample from a breast cancer patient; (b) measuring the mRNA expression level of matrix metallopeptidase 11 (MMP11) and the mRNA expression level of cluster of differentiation 2 (CD2) from patient information or the sample of step (a); (c) normalizing the gene mRNA expression levels selected and measured in step (b); and (d) predicting the prognosis of breast cancer by combining the gene expression levels normalized in step (c), wherein overexpression of the MMP11 indicates a bad prognosis, and overexpression of CD2 indicates a good prognosis. The method of the present invention has an effect of being capable of more accurately predicting the future prognosis of metastasis, reoccurrence, or metastatic reoccurrence in a breast cancer patient, and in particular, has a very excellent ability to predict the prognosis of HER2-type breast cancer, the prognosis of which is very poor, and thus can be usefully used to provide clues for the direction of future treatment of breast cancer.
