Using a logistic regression with a binary outcome indicator of tumor and non-tumor lung tissue, and a marker panel as covariates, they demonstrated that a combination of HS3ST2 (3OST2), DAPK and TNFRSF10C (DcR1) gave an ROC curve with an AUC of 0.959 when comparing tumor and adjacent non-tumor lung tissue. Here, DAPK1 is linked to neoplasm.
