A method of screening for, diagnosing or detecting lung cancer in a subject, the method comprising: a) determining a level of a biomarker or a plurality of biomarkers in a sample from the subject, wherein the biomarker(s) is/are selected from the biomarkers listed in Table 8, and b) comparing the level of each biomarker in the sample with a control; wherein an increased level of any one of the biomarkers compared to the control is indicative that the subject has lung cancer Biomarkers were identified by shot-gun proteomics analysis of lung cancer cell-lines H1688, H520, H460 and H23. These lines are of differing histo-types, and were grown on serum-free media. |
