Title:
METHODS AND KITS FOR DETERMING A RISK TO DEVELOP CANCER, FOR EVALUATING AN EFFECTIVENESS AND DOSAGE OF CANCER THERAPY AND FOR CORRELATING BETWEEN AN ACTIVITY OF A DNA REPAIR ENZYME AND A CANCER
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO2002076280
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
Methods and kits for (i) determining a risk of a subject to develop cancer; (ii) evaluating an effectiveness and dosage of cancer therapy administered to a cancer patient; and (iii) determining a presence of correlation or non-correlation between an activity of at least one DNA repair enzyme and at least one cancer, are disclosed.
