Claim Text:
1. A method for detecting a cancer(s), which is applied to a sample separated from a living body and comprises measuring in the sample an antibody that binds any one of the polypeptides (g) to (h) below raised in the living body by immunoassay using as an antigen any one of the polypeptides (g) to (h) below: (g) a polypeptide consisting of not less than 500 and not more than 1000 consecutive amino acids of the amino acid sequence shown in SEQ ID NO: 26 and comprising not less than 500 consecutive amino acids located in the region of 1514th to 2339th amino acids of SEQ ID NO: 26, or a polypeptide consisting of not less than 500 and not more than 1000 consecutive amino acids of the amino acid sequence shown in SEQ ID NO: 28 and comprising not less than 500 consecutive amino acids located in the region of 1513th to 2325th amino acids of SEQ ID NO: 28; (h) a polypeptide consisting of not less than 500 and not more than 1000 consecutive amino acids of the amino acid sequence shown in SEQ ID NO: 45 and comprising not less than 500 consecutive amino acids located in the region of 237th to 1023rd amino acids of SEQ ID NO: 45, or a polypeptide consisting of not less than 500 and not more than 1000 consecutive amino acids of the amino acid sequence shown in SEQ ID NO: 47 and comprising not less than 500 consecutive amino acids located in the region of 236th to 1023rd amino acids of SEQ ID NO: 47, wherein increase of said antibody in comparison to a control sample indicates the presence of cancer(s).
