Overview

Introduction

This pipeline computes the correlation between cancer subtypes identified by different molecular patterns and selected clinical features.

Summary

Testing the association between subtypes identified by 8 different clustering approaches and 7 clinical features across 208 patients, 17 significant findings detected with P value < 0.05 and Q value < 0.25.

CNMF clustering analysis on array-based mRNA expression data identified 3 subtypes that do not correlate to any clinical features.
Consensus hierarchical clustering analysis on array-based mRNA expression data identified 3 subtypes that do not correlate to any clinical features.
3 subtypes identified in current cancer cohort by 'Copy Number Ratio CNMF subtypes'. These subtypes correlate to 'Time to Death', 'AGE', 'GENDER', 'HISTOLOGICAL.TYPE', and 'HISTOLOGICCLASSIFICATION'.
4 subtypes identified in current cancer cohort by 'METHLYATION CNMF'. These subtypes correlate to 'Time to Death', 'AGE', 'HISTOLOGICAL.TYPE', 'HISTOLOGICCLASSIFICATION', and 'RADIATIONS.RADIATION.REGIMENINDICATION'.
CNMF clustering analysis on sequencing-based mRNA expression data identified 5 subtypes that correlate to 'Time to Death', 'AGE', 'HISTOLOGICAL.TYPE', and 'HISTOLOGICCLASSIFICATION'.
Consensus hierarchical clustering analysis on sequencing-based mRNA expression data identified 3 subtypes that correlate to 'HISTOLOGICAL.TYPE'.
4 subtypes identified in current cancer cohort by 'MIRSEQ CNMF'. These subtypes correlate to 'HISTOLOGICAL.TYPE'.
3 subtypes identified in current cancer cohort by 'MIRSEQ CHIERARCHICAL'. These subtypes correlate to 'HISTOLOGICAL.TYPE'.

Methods & Data

Input

Cluster data file = LGG-TP.mergedcluster.txt
Clinical data file = LGG-TP.clin.merged.picked.txt
Number of patients = 208
Number of clustering approaches = 8
Number of selected clinical features = 7
Exclude small clusters that include fewer than K patients, K = 3

Clustering approaches

CNMF clustering

consensus non-negative matrix factorization clustering approach (Brunet et al. 2004)

Consensus hierarchical clustering

Resampling-based clustering method (Monti et al. 2003)

Survival analysis

For survival clinical features, the Kaplan-Meier survival curves of tumors with and without gene mutations were plotted and the statistical significance P values were estimated by logrank test (Bland and Altman 2004) using the 'survdiff' function in R

ANOVA analysis

For continuous numerical clinical features, one-way analysis of variance (Howell 2002) was applied to compare the clinical values between tumor subtypes using 'anova' function in R

Fisher's exact test

For binary clinical features, two-tailed Fisher's exact tests (Fisher 1922) were used to estimate the P values using the 'fisher.test' function in R

Chi-square test

For multi-class clinical features (nominal or ordinal), Chi-square tests (Greenwood and Nikulin 1996) were used to estimate the P values using the 'chisq.test' function in R

Q value calculation

For multiple hypothesis correction, Q value is the False Discovery Rate (FDR) analogue of the P value (Benjamini and Hochberg 1995), defined as the minimum FDR at which the test may be called significant. We used the 'Benjamini and Hochberg' method of 'p.adjust' function in R to convert P values into Q values.
