  • Publication number: 20210287802
    Abstract: A method of evaluating pancreatic cancer includes (I) an obtaining step of obtaining amino acid concentration data on a concentration value of an amino acid in blood collected from a subject to be evaluated, and (II) an evaluating step of evaluating a state of pancreatic cancer in the subject by calculating a value of a formula using the amino acid concentration data of the subject obtained at the obtaining step and the formula previously established for evaluating the state of pancreatic cancer, including an explanatory variable to be substituted with the concentration value of the amino acid.

  • Patent number: 9664681
    Abstract: According to the method of evaluating lung cancer, amino acid concentration data on the concentration value of amino acid in blood collected from a subject to be evaluated is measured, and a lung cancer state in the subject is evaluated based on the concentration value of at least one of Orn, Lys, ABA, Arg, Glu, His, Tau, Pro, Ala, Cit and Ile contained in the measured amino acid concentration data of the subject.

  • Publication number: 20110091924
    Abstract: According to the method of evaluating cancer type of the present invention, amino acid concentration data on concentration values of amino acids in blood collected from a subject to be evaluated is measured, and the cancer type in the subject is evaluated based on the concentration value of at least one of Glu, ABA, Val, Met, Pro, Phe, Thr, Ile, Leu, and His contained in the measured amino acid concentration data of the subject.
