A monoclonal antibody driven biodiagnostic system for the quantitative screening of breast cancer.

A prospective clinical parametric study comprising women afflicted by breast cancer and otherwise healthy participants was undertaken. The mean plasmatic concentration of putative leucine amino peptidase and nucleoside diphosphate phosphotransferase enzymatic complex in breast cancer cases was significantly elevated [43.9 +/- 2.

Model building and quantitative analysis of a tandem immuno-capturing assay as a screening tool for breast cancer.

The onset of breast cancer appears to occur, on average, a decade earlier in Mexican women in comparison to American or European women. Early detection and prevention of breast cancer are of crucial importance to increase survival and improve quality of life. Based on the molecular elucidation of critical events leading to breast carcinogenesis, a tandem immuno-capturing blood test was developed as a quantitative population screening assay in view of providing a cost-effective and non-invasive alternative to population screening.
