Autoantibodies for breast cancer diagnosis
The data from Phase I will be tested and validated with newly diagnosed BCa patient samples from Cohort A, and age-matched healthy controls taken from Cohort D, and a risk score will be developed based on a composite of autoantibodies for breast cancer diagnosis. A Cox Proportional Hazards (PH) Regression will be used to analyze a case-cohort study design to validate the risk score by identifying breast cancer cases from those cases in Cohorts B, C and D.
