ABSTRACT:
A method for assessing the prognosis of a patient undergoing therapy for cancer by measuring the granulocyte/lymphocyte ratio of the patient's blood and comparing the ratio to a normal range of 1.6.+-.0.6. The prognosis is considered improved when the G/L value is within the range as compared to when it is greater than the same.
