Abstract: Disclosed are methods for detecting, diagnosing or monitoring a renal cancer in a subject. The methods include detecting quantity of one or more polypeptides or fragments thereof comprised by body fluid such as urine, wherein the one or more polypeptides or fragments thereof, can be present at elevated levels in a subject with, a kidney cancer, as compared to a subject without a kidney cancer. Non-limiting examples of such polypeptides include aquaporin-1, adipose differentiation-related protein, and paired box protein-2. Antibody probes can be used to detect or quantify the polypeptides. In some embodiments, mass spectroscopy can be used to detect or quantify the polypeptides, or to identify a polypeptide in a body fluid sample from a subject with a kidney cancer.
