Zusammenfassung:The present invention provides a method for evaluating the pharmacological action of HGF that utilizes a PD marker in which fluctuation is recognized by administration of hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) in a broader range of subjects. A method for evaluating the pharmacodynamic action of HGF is provided. The aforementioned evaluation method is characterized in that it comprises a step of measuring the ApoA4 level in a biological sample collected from a test subject who was administered HGF. According to the present invention, a kit for evaluating the pharmacodynamic action of HGF comprising an anti-ApoA4 antibody is further provided.
