Overview
Introduction

This is the analysis overview for Firehose run "25 July 2012".

Summary

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.

Results

  • Sequence and Copy Number Analyses

    • Copy number analysis (GISTIC2)
      View Report | There were 57 tumor samples used in this analysis: 21 significant arm-level results, 15 significant focal amplifications, and 24 significant focal deletions were found.

  • Clustering Analyses

    • Clustering of miRseq expression: consensus NMF
      View Report | We filtered the data to 150 most variable miRs. Consensus NMF clustering of 54 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.

    • Clustering of miRseq expression: consensus hierarchical
      View Report | We filtered the data to 150 most variable miRs. Consensus average linkage hierarchical clustering of 54 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 Analyses

    • Correlation between molecular cancer subtypes and selected clinical features
      View Report | Testing the association between subtypes identified by 2 different clustering approaches and 2 clinical features across 45 patients, no significant finding detected with P value < 0.05.

  • Other Analyses

    • Correlation between copy number variations of arm-level result and selected clinical features
      View Report | Testing the association between copy number variation 59 arm-level results and 2 clinical features across 48 patients, no significant finding detected with Q value < 0.25.

    • Correlation between copy number variation genes and selected clinical features
      View Report | Testing the association between copy number variation of 39 peak regions and 2 clinical features across 48 patients, no significant finding detected with Q value < 0.25.
