Abstract
The present invention relates to rapid, sensitive methods for determining whether a subject has or is at risk of developing lung cancer based on certain combinations of biomarkers, or biomarkers and biometric parameters. The methods consist of: a) quantifying in a test sample obtained from a subject, the amount of two or more biomarkers in a panel, the panel comprising at least one antibody and at least one antigen: b) comparing the amount of each biomarker quantified in the panel to a predetermined cutoff for said biomarker and assigning a score for each biomarker based on said comparison: c) combining the assigned score for each biomarker quantified in step b to obtain a total score for said subject: d) comparing the total score in step c with a predetermined total score and e) determining whether said subject has a risk of lung cancer based on the comparison in step d.
