Overview
Introduction

This pipeline computes the correlation between significant arm-level copy number variations (cnvs) and selected clinical features.

Summary

Testing the association between copy number variation 78 arm-level events and 11 clinical features across 162 patients, 3 significant findings detected with Q value < 0.25.

  • 4p gain cnv correlated to 'NUMBER.OF.LYMPH.NODES'.

  • 2q loss cnv correlated to 'NUMBER.OF.LYMPH.NODES'.

  • 7q loss cnv correlated to 'NUMBER.OF.LYMPH.NODES'.

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

  • Clinical data file = READ-TP.merged_data.txt

  • Number of patients = 162

  • Number of significantly arm-level cnvs = 78

  • Number of selected clinical features = 11

  • Exclude regions that fewer than K tumors have mutations, K = 3

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

Student's t-test analysis

For continuous numerical clinical features, two-tailed Student's t test with unequal variance (Lehmann and Romano 2005) was applied to compare the clinical values between tumors with and without gene mutations using 't.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

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.
