(primary solid tumor cohort)
This is the analysis overview for Firehose run "16 January 2013".
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.

Sequence and Copy Number Analyses

Copy number analysis (GISTIC2)
View Report | There were 29 tumor samples used in this analysis: 12 significant arm-level results, 11 significant focal amplifications, and 17 significant focal deletions were found. -
Clustering Analyses
-
Clustering of copy number data: consensus NMF
View Report | The most robust consensus NMF clustering of 29 samples using the 28 copy number focal regions was identified for k = 2 clusters. We computed the clustering for k = 2 to k = 8 and used the cophenetic correlation coefficient to determine the best solution. -
Clustering of Methylation: consensus NMF
View Report | The 12571 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 29 samples and 12571 genes identified 2 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 29 samples and 150 miRs identified 2 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 29 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.
