Abstract
Autoantibodies to the heat shock protein 90 (Hsp 90) have been reported as prognostic marker in breast cancer patients. Sera from 20 high-grade osteosarcoma patients were tested at the time of diagnosis by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Presence of anti-Hsp90 antibodies correlated with a better response to neoadjuvant chemotherapy (P < 0.01), whereas the absence correlated with development of metastases. These data suggest that anti-Hsp90 antibodies might be of predictive value in human osteosarcoma.Entities:
