Abstract
The present invention relates to a method for the in vitro determination of the radiosensitivity of a subject. More particularly, the invention relates to a method comprising a step of inducing an exogenous stress on a biological sample from a subject, followed by the comparison of the presence or level of at least one compound chosen in a group of defined compounds, in said biological sample and in a reference sample. The present invention also relates to the use of said at least one compound as predictive biomarker of the radio-sensitivity of a subject. The invention also relates to a kit for the detection of the presence or level of at least one of said compounds, usable in a method according to the invention.
