Patent ID: 8131520

Claim:
A cancer diagnostic device for supporting a diagnosis of a cancer comprising: acquiring means for acquiring a first cyclin dependent kinase (first CDK) parameter which is capable to be acquired from an activity value and an expression level of the first CDK, and a second cyclin dependent kinase (second CDK) parameter which is capable to be acquired from an activity value and an expression level of the second CDK, based on an activity value and an expression level of the first CDK contained in a first malignant tumor of a cancer patient to be examined and on an activity value and an expression level of the second CDK contained in the first malignant tumor; a memory storing a plurality of sample data, each of the sample data comprising: a first CDK parameter acquired from an activity value and an expression level of the first CDK contained in a second malignant tumor of a sample patient, to whom anthracycline anticancer drugs have been administered; a second CDK parameter acquired from an activity value and an expression level of the second CDK contained in the second malignant tumor; and information regarding a cancer recurrence of the sample patient; selecting means for selecting one of the sample data stored in the memory whose first CDK parameter and second CDK parameter are in a prescribed range, wherein the range contains the first CDK parameter and the second CDK parameter of the cancer patient to be examined; and display means for displaying the information regarding a cancer recurrence comprised in the selected sample data.
