Research Abstract |
To improve survival of the patients with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma, we tried to establish markers that could predict the efficacy of chemotherapies. By measuring serum 8 cytokines simultaneously, close correlation was observed between high cytokine expressions and poor prognosis. In addition, comprehensive glycan analysis revealed that survival of the patients with high serum tri-antennary glycan (G2890) expression was shorter than that with the low expression.
