The present invention describes methods for determining the risk that a breast precursor lesion will progress to invasive breast cancer and/or the risk of recurrent non-invasive disease in a patient, comprising detecting the presence and/or level of PAPA and/or PAPPA functional activity in a breast tissue sample obtained from the patient, wherein if PAPPA is not present, or is present at a reduced amount compared to a control, the is the risk of progression to invasive cancer and/or the risk or recurrent disease.

The present invention also enables the chemosensitisation of mitotically delayed breast cancer cells to anti-proliferative agents, preferably anti-mitotic agents, by restoring normal progression through mitosis. In this embodiment a first drug is applied to release breast cancer cells from the mitotic block and, sequentially, a second drug affecting proliferating cells is administered for cancer cell killing.
