2079345 9116632 PCTABS00008 The invention relates to a method of predicting disease-free survival in cancer patients by relating the number and amount of stress response proteins in cancer tissue to the probability of tumor recurrence. Particular heat shock/stress response proteins useful in the determination of tumor recurrence are the stress response proteins, hsp70, hsp90, hsp27, and glucose regulated protein grp94. Specific levels of the stress response proteins relative to an internal standard are identified, above which the probability of tumor recurrence is highly significant. Kit methods are disclosed which could enable determination of the stress proteins by an antibody assay.
