This is the analysis overview for Firehose run "23 June 2012".
Note: These results are offered to the community as an additional reference point, enabling a wide range of cancer biologists, clinical investigators, and genome and computational scientists to easily incorporate TCGA into the backdrop of ongoing research. While every effort is made to ensure that Firehose input data and algorithms are of the highest possible quality, these analyses have not been reviewed by domain experts.

Clustering of Methylation: consensus NMF
View Report | The 5906 most variable methylated genes were selected based on variation. The variation cutoff are set for each tumor type empirically by fitting a bimodal distriution. For genes with multiple methylation probes, we chose the most variable one to represent the gene. Consensus NMF clustering of 230 samples and 5906 genes identified 3 subtypes with the stability of the clustering increasing for k = 2 to k = 8 and the average silhouette width calculation for selecting the robust clusters. -
Clustering of mRNAseq gene expression: consensus NMF
View Report | The most robust consensus NMF clustering of 78 samples using the 1500 most variable genes was identified for k = 4 clusters. We computed the clustering for k = 2 to k = 8 and used the cophenetic correlation coefficient to determine the best solution. -
Clustering of mRNAseq gene expression: consensus hierarchical
View Report | The 1500 most variable genes were selected. Consensus average linkage hierarchical clustering of 78 samples and 1500 genes identified 3 subtypes with the stability of the clustering increasing for k = 2 to k = 8 and the average silhouette width calculation for selecting the robust clusters. -
Clustering of miRseq expression: consensus NMF
View Report | We filtered the data to 150 most variable miRs. Consensus NMF clustering of 138 samples and 150 miRs identified 3 subtypes with the stability of the clustering increasing for k = 2 to k = 8 and the average silhouette width calculation for selecting the robust clusters. -

Correlation between molecular cancer subtypes and selected clinical features
View Report | Testing the association between subtypes identified by 3 different clustering approaches and 4 clinical features across 137 patients, 8 significant findings detected with P value < 0.05. -
Correlations between copy number and mRNAseq expression
View Report | The correlation coefficients in 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 70, 80, 90 percentiles are 524.2, 1159.4, 2126.6, 2751, 3216, 3650.2, 4146.4, 4717.6, 5479.8, respectively.
