Abstract

A method of supporting a diagnosis of an effect of a treatment by using anthracycline anticancer drugs is disclosed. The method provides a new value for judging an effect, a judgment score, which is calculated based on expression levels and activity values of two cyclin dependent kinases (CDKs). The effect of the treatment by using anthracycline anticancer drugs is judged by comparing the judgment score with a predetermined threshold level.
