P65 is a promising marker for the early
detection of malignant tumor formation and a useful tool for monitoring
therapy and remission. Levels of p65 also appear to have a
direct correlation to tumor mass.
In an initial study performed, 67 dogs with lymphosarcoma and
14 normal dogs were evaluated for p65 levels with the following
findings:
Sensitivity: 0.94
Specificity: 0.70
Predictive Value: 0.83
(elevated p65 & presence
of cancer) |
