Cancer biomarkers: closer to delivering on their promise

Cancer Cell. 2011 Sep 13;20(3):279-80. doi: 10.1016/j.ccr.2011.08.021.

Abstract

Taguchi et al. describe, in this issue of Cancer Cell, a quantitative comparative biomarker discovery approach that integrates animal lung cancer models with validation in well-controlled human clinical study sets. This approach overcomes many of the major barriers that have held back the field of cancer biomarkers in the past.
