[PMID: 35153523 PMCID: PMC8826273 DOI: 10.1177/1179554920966260] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/10/2020] [Accepted: 09/17/2020] [Indexed: 11/17/2022] Open
Abstract
Motivation: Although several prognostic signatures for lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) have
been developed, they are mainly based on a single-omics data set. This
article aims to develop a novel set of prognostic signatures by combining
genetic mutation and expression profiles of LUAD patients. Methods: The genetic mutation and expression profiles, together with the clinical
profiles of a cohort of LUAD patients from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA),
were downloaded. Patients were separated into 2 groups, namely, the
high-risk and low-risk groups, according to their overall survivals. Then,
differential analysis was performed to determine differentially expressed
genes (DEGs) and mutated genes (DMGs) in the expression and mutation
profiles, respectively, between the 2 groups. Finally, a prognostic model
based on the support vector machine (SVM) algorithm was developed by
combining the expression values of the DEGs and the mutation times of the
DMGs. Results: A total of 13 DEGs and 7 DMGs were recognized between the 2 groups. Their
prognostic values were validated using independent cohorts. Compared with
several existing signatures, the proposed prognostic signatures exhibited
better prediction performance in the testing set. In addition, it is found
that 1 of the 7 DMGs, GRIN2B, is mutated much more
frequently in the high-risk group, showing a potential value as a therapy
target. Conclusions: Combining multi-omics data sets is an applicable manner to identify novel
prognostic signatures and to improve the prognostic prediction for LUAD,
which will be heuristic to other types of cancers.

Abstract
Lung adenocarcinoma (LACA) is the leading cause of cancer-associated death worldwide. The present study intended to identify DNA methylation patterns that may serve as diagnostic and prognostic biomarkers for LACA. Data on DNA methylation and the survival data of the patients of LACA were obtained from The Cancer Genome Atlas. Kaplan-Meier curves and receiver operating characteristic curve analysis were utilized to build diagnostic and prognostic models. A total of 13 CpG sites were identified and validated as the optimal diagnostic and prognostic signature for overall survival. It was concluded that the CpG-based signature is a reliable predictor for the diagnosis and prognosis of patients with LACA.

Abstract
Lung cancer (LC) accounts for the largest number of tumor-related deaths worldwide. As the overall 5-year survival rate of LC is associated with its stages at detection, development of a cost-effective and noninvasive cancer screening method is necessary. We conducted a systematic review to evaluate the diagnostic values of single and panel tumor-associated autoantibodies (TAAbs) in patients with LC. This review included 52 articles with 64 single TAAbs and 19 with 20 panels of TAAbs. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISA) were the most common detection method. The sensitivities of single TAAbs for all stages of LC ranged from 3.1% to 92.9% (mean: 45.2%, median: 37.1%), specificities from 60.6% to 100% (mean: 88.1%, median: 94.9%), and AUCs from 0.416 to 0.990 (mean: 0.764, median: 0.785). The single TAAb with the most significant diagnostic value was the autoantibody against human epididymis secretory protein (HE4) with the maximum sensitivity 91% for NSCLC. The sensitivities of the panel of TAAbs ranged from 30% to 94.8% (mean: 76.7%, median: 82%), specificities from 73% to 100% (mean: 86.8%, median: 89.0%), and AUCs from 0.630 to 0.982 (mean: 0.821, median: 0.820), and the most significant AUC value in a panel (M13 Phage 908, 3148, 1011, 3052, 1000) was 0.982. The single TAAb with the most significant diagnostic calue for early stage LC, was the autoantibody against Wilms tumor protein 1 (WT1) with the maximum sensitivity of 90.3% for NSCLC and its sensitivity and specificity in a panel (T7 Phage 72, 91, 96, 252, 286, 290) were both above 90.0%. Single or TAAbs panels may be useful biomarkers for detecting LC patients at all stages or an early-stage in high-risk populations or health people, but the TAAbs panels showed higher detection performance than single TAAbs. The diagnostic value of the panel of six TAAbs, which is higher than the panel of seven TAAbs, may be used as potential biomarkers for the early detection of LC and can probably be used in combination with low-dose CT in the clinic.

Abstract
Lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) is the leading cause of cancer-related death worldwide. High mortality in LUAD motivates us to stratify the patients into high- and low-risk groups, which is beneficial for the clinicians to design a personalized therapeutic regimen. To robustly predict the risk, we identified a set of robust prognostic gene signatures and critical pathways based on ten gene expression datasets by the meta-analysis-based Cox regression model, 25 of which were selected as predictors of multivariable Cox regression model by MMPC algorithm. Gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA) identified the Aurora-A pathway, the Aurora-B pathway, and the FOXM1 transcription factor network as prognostic pathways in LUAD. Moreover, the three prognostic pathways were also the biological processes of G2-M transition, suggesting that hyperactive G2-M transition in cell cycle was an indicator of poor prognosis in LUAD. The validation in the independent datasets suggested that overall survival differences were observed not only in all LUAD patients, but also in those with a specific TNM stage, gender, and age group. The comprehensive analysis demonstrated that prognostic signatures and the prognostic model by the large-scale gene expression analysis were more robust than models built by single data based gene signatures in LUAD overall survival prediction.

Abstract
Lung cancer (LC) is a leading cause of cancer-related death in the Western world. Patients with LC usually have poor prognosis due to the difficulties in detecting tumors at early stages. Multiple studies have shown that circulating miRNAs might be promising biomarkers for early detection of LC. We aimed to provide an overview of published studies on circulating miRNA markers for early detection of LC and to summarize their diagnostic performance in Western populations. A systematic literature search was performed in PubMed and ISI Web of Knowledge to find relevant studies published up to 11 August 2017. Information on study design, population characteristics, miRNA markers, and diagnostic accuracy (including sensitivity, specificity, and AUC) were independently extracted by two reviewers. Overall, 17 studies evaluating 35 circulating miRNA markers and 19 miRNA panels in serum or plasma were included. The median sensitivity (range) and specificity (range) were, respectively, 78.4% (51.7%-100%) and 78.7% (42.9%-93.5%) for individual miRNAs, and 83.0% (64.0%-100%) and 84.9% (71.0%-100%) for miRNA panels. Most studies incorporated individual miRNA markers as panels (with 2-34 markers), with multiple miRNA-based panels generally outperforming individual markers. Two promising miRNA panels were discovered and verified in prospective cohorts. Of note, both studies exclusively applied miRNA ratios when building up panels. In conclusion, circulating miRNAs may bear potential for noninvasive LC screening, but large studies conducted in screening or longitudinal settings are needed to validate the promising results and optimize the marker panels.

Abstract
Introduction Lung adenocarcinoma (LAC) accounts for more than a half of non-small cell lung cancer with high morbidity and mortality. Progression of treatment has not accelerated the improvement of its prognosis. Hence, it is an urgent need to develop novel biomarkers for its early diagnosis and treatment. Materials and methods In this study, we proposed to identify LAC survival-related genes through comprehensive analysis of large-scale gene expression profiles. LAC gene expression data sets were obtained from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA). Identification of differentially expressed genes (DEGs) in LAC compared with adjacent normal lung tissues was first performed followed by univariate Cox regression analysis to obtain genes that are significantly associated with LAC survival (SurGenes). Then, we conducted sure independence screening (SIS) for SurGenes to identify more reliable genes and the prognostic signature for LAC survival prediction. Another two lung cancer data sets from TCGA and Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) were used for the validation of prognostic signature. Results A total of 20 genes were obtained, which were significantly associated with the overall survival (OS) of LAC patients. The prognostic signature, a weighted linear combination of the 20 genes, could successfully separate LAC samples with high OS from those with low OS and had robust predictive performance for survival (training set: p-value <2.2×10−16; testing set: p-value =2.04×10−5, area under the curve (AUC) =0.615). Combined with GEO data set, we obtained four genes, that is, FUT4, SLC25A42, IGFBP1, and KLHDC8B that are found in both the prognostic signature and DEGs of LAC in GEO data set. Discussion The prognostic signature combined with multi-gene expression profiles provides a moderate OS prediction for LAC and should be helpful for appropriate treatment method selection.

Selecting High-Risk Individuals for Lung Cancer Screening: A Prospective Evaluation of Existing Risk Models and Eligibility Criteria in the German EPIC Cohort. Cancer Prev Res (Phila) 2015; 8:777-85.

Abstract
Lung cancer risk prediction models are considered more accurate than the eligibility criteria based on age and smoking in identification of high-risk individuals for screening. We externally validated four lung cancer risk prediction models (Bach, Spitz, LLP, and PLCO(M2012)) among 20,700 ever smokers in the EPIC-Germany cohort. High-risk subjects were identified using the eligibility criteria applied in clinical trials (NELSON/LUSI, DLCST, ITALUNG, DANTE, and NLST) and the four risk prediction models. Sensitivity, specificity, and positive predictive value (PPV) were calculated based on the lung cancers diagnosed in the first 5 years of follow-up. Decision curve analysis was performed to compare net benefits. The number of high-risk subjects identified by the eligibility criteria ranged from 3,409 (NELSON/LUSI) to 1,458 (NLST). Among the eligibility criteria, the DLCST produced the highest sensitivity (64.13%), whereas the NLST produced the highest specificity (93.13%) and PPV (2.88%). The PLCO(M2012) model showed the best performance in external validation (C-index: 0.81; 95% CI, 0.76-0.86; E/O: 1.03; 95% CI, 0.87-1.23) and the highest sensitivity, specificity, and PPV, but the superiority over the Bach model and the LLP model was modest. All the models but the Spitz model showed greater net benefit over the full range of risk estimates than the eligibility criteria. We concluded that all of the lung cancer risk prediction models apart from the Spitz model have a similar accuracy to identify high-risk individuals for screening, but in general outperform the eligibility criteria used in the screening trials.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Lung cancer has one of the lowest survival outcomes of any cancer because more then two-thirds of patients are diagnosed when curative treatment is not possible. The challenge is to help earlier diagnosis of lung cancer and hence improve prognosis. AIM To derive and validate an algorithm incorporating information on symptoms, to estimate the absolute risk of having lung cancer DESIGN AND SETTING Cohort study of 375 UK QResearch® general practices for development, and 189 for validation. METHOD Selected patients were aged 30-84 years and free of lung cancer at baseline and haemoptysis, loss of appetite, or weight loss in previous 12 months. Primary outcome was incident diagnosis of lung cancer recorded in the next 2 years. Risk factors examined were: haemoptysis, appetite loss, weight loss, cough, dyspnoea, tiredness, hoarseness, smoking, body mass index, deprivation score, family history of lung cancer, other cancers, asthma, chronic obstructive airways disease, pneumonia, asbestos exposure, and anaemia. Cox proportional hazards models with age as the underlying time variable were used to develop separate risk equations in males and females. Measures of calibration and discrimination assessed performance in the validation cohort. RESULTS There were 3785 incident cases of lung cancer arising from 4 289 282 person-years in the derivation cohort. Independent predictors were haemoptysis, appetite loss, weight loss, cough, body mass index, deprivation score, smoking status, chronic obstructive airways disease, anaemia, and prior cancer (females only). On validation, the algorithms explained 72% of the variation. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) statistics were 0.92 for both females and males. The D statistic was 3.25 for females and 3.29 for males. The 10% of patients with the highest predicted risks included 77% of all lung cancers diagnosed over the subsequent 2 years. CONCLUSION The algorithm has good discrimination and calibration and could potentially be used to identify those at highest risk of lung cancer, to facilitate early referral and investigation.
