Overview
Introduction

This pipeline computes the correlation between significant copy number variation (cnv focal) genes and molecular subtypes.

Summary

Testing the association between copy number variation 40 focal events and 10 molecular subtypes across 292 patients, 25 significant findings detected with P value < 0.05 and Q value < 0.25.

Methods & Data
Input
  • Copy number data file = transformed.cor.cli.txt

  • Molecular subtype file = SKCM-TM.transferedmergedcluster.txt

  • Number of patients = 292

  • Number of significantly focal cnvs = 40

  • Number of molecular subtypes = 10

  • Exclude genes that fewer than K tumors have alterations, K = 3

Fisher's exact test

For binary or multi-class clinical features (nominal or ordinal), two-tailed Fisher's exact tests (Fisher 1922) were used to estimate the P values using the 'fisher.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.
