The purpose of the present invention is to provide a prediction method for prognosis of patients with cancer. The prediction method for prognosis of patients with cancer is characterized by using, as an index of prognosis, at least one index selected from the group consisting of an index of nutritional conditions, an index of sugar metabolism conditions, and an index of inflammation conditions in a patient with cancer. The index of nutritional conditions is preferably the concentration of albumin in the blood, the index of sugar metabolism conditions is preferably the concentration of glucose in the blood, and the index of inflammation conditions is preferably the concentration of CRP in the blood. 本发明的目的在于，提供预测癌症患者的预后的方法。根据本发明，提供一种预测癌症患者的预后的方法，其特征在于，使用选自由癌症患者的营养状态的指标、糖代谢状态的指标和炎症状态的指标组成的组中的至少1种指标作为预后的指标。营养状态的指标优选为白蛋白血液浓度，糖代谢状态的指标优选为葡萄糖血液浓度，炎症状态的指标优选为CRP血液浓度。
