  • Method for predicting therapeutic effect and/or recurrence monitoring in cancer patients
    Patent number: 12019068
    Abstract: The present invention provides a method for predicting a therapeutic effect and/or monitoring recurrence in a cancer patient. Disclosed is a method for detecting a therapeutic effect of cancer treatment in a cancer patient, comprising: measuring nematode tactic behavior to each of pre-treatment urine and in-treatment or post-treatment urine from the cancer patient; and comparing a result of measuring the tactic behavior to the pre-treatment urine and a result of measuring the tactic behavior to the in-treatment or post-treatment urine, wherein when attraction is weakened or avoidance is strengthened after the treatment, it is determined that the therapeutic effect is detected.
