摘要：
The present invention provides methods and kits for assessing whether a subject is afflicted with an FRα-expressing cancer, methods and kits for predicting the progression of ovarian cancer in a subject afflicted with an FRα-expressing cancer, methods and kits for assessing the level of risk that a subject will develop an FRα- expressing cancer, and methods of stratifying a subject with an FRα-expressing cancer into cancer therapy groups. The methods involve determining the level of folate receptor alpha (FRα) which is not bound to a cell in a sample derived from the subject and comparing this level with the level of FRα in a control sample.
