GLYCOSYLTRANSFERASE GENE EXPRESSION PROFILE TO IDENTIFY MULTIPLE CANCER TYPES AND SUBTYPES

摘要

This invention relates to a method of classification of cancer type or subtype in a subject by detecting glycosyltransferase gene expression in a sample from the subject. In particular, where the method is for classification of cancer subtype in the subject the glycosyltransferase genes may be survival associated glycosyltransferase genes. The invention further relates to a kit comprising glycosyltransferase gene biomarkers for use with the method, and a method of treatment of cancer in a subject with the use of the method or kit of the invention.
