Abstract:
An embodiment of the invention relates to the use of stabilized cancer peptide fragments derived from Protocadherin FAT1 for the diagnosis of cancers, particularly pancreatic cancer. A method for the detection of cancer, severity of cancer, and/or effectiveness of a therapeutic regimen includes detecting and/or measuring the amount of Protocadherin FAT1 peptide fragments present in the biological sample of a subject.

Claim (Index 20):
A method for determining whether cancer is present in a subject and/or whether a subject is predisposed to cancer, the method comprising:\n determining whether one or more Protocadherin FAT1 peptide fragments are present in a biological sample obtained from the subject, wherein each Protocadherin FAT1 peptide fragment has an amino acid sequence selected from the group consisting of SEQ ID NOS: 1-11; wherein said determining is performed by contacting the biological sample with one or more biomolecules selective for the one or more Protocadherin FAT1 peptide fragments and detecting whether binding occurs between the one or more Protocadherin FAT1 peptide fragments and the one or more biomolecules, wherein binding between the one or more Protocadherin FAT1 peptide fragments and the one or more biomolecules indicates the presence of one or more Protocadherin FAT1 peptide fragments in the biological sample; and wherein the presence of one or more Protocadherin FAT1 peptide fragments in the biological sample indicates that cancer is present in the subject or that the subject is predisposed to cancer.
