More particularly, the present invention relates to a method of determining the probability of classification of a large intestine neoplasm into one or more categories selected from adenoma, stage I, stage II, stage III or stage IV by screening for changes to the methylation levels of a panel of gene markers, including BCAT1, IKZF1, IRF4, GRASP and/or CAHM. The method of the present invention is useful in a range of applications including, but not limited to, those relating to the diagnosis and/or monitoring of colorectal neoplasms, such as colorectal adenocarcinosis.
