Abstract:
Disclosed herein is a DNA methylation-based test for determining the recurrence or non-recurrence of a lung cancer such as NSCLC after treatment. The assays involve the detection of methylation of the BAX gene promoter alone or in combination with other genes. The test is suitable for monitoring treatment of subjects with lung cancer for which methylation differs by stage of the disease and by treatment regimen.
