CANcer-specific Evaluation System (CANES): a high-accuracy platform, for preclinical single/multi-biomarker discovery.

ABSTRACT: The recent creation of enormous, cancer-related "Big Data" public depositories represents a powerful means for understanding tumorigenesis. However, a consistently accurate system for clinically evaluating single/multi-biomarkers remains lacking, and it has been asserted that oft-failed clinical advancement of biomarkers occurs within the very early stages of biomarker assessment. To address these challenges, we developed a clinically testable, web-based tool, CANcer-specific single/multi-biomarker Evaluation System (CANES), to evaluate biomarker effectiveness, across 2,134 whole transcriptome datasets, from 94,147 biological samples (from 18 tumor types). For user-provided single/multi-biomarkers, CANES evaluates the performance of single/multi-biomarker candidates, based on four classification methods, support vector machine, random forest, neural networks, and classification and regression trees. In addition, CANES offers several advantages over earlier analysis tools, including: 1) survival analysis; 2) evaluation of mature miRNAs as markers for user-defined diagnostic or prognostic purposes; and 3) provision of a "pan-cancer" summary view, based on each single marker. We believe that such "landscape" evaluation of single/multi-biomarkers, for diagnostic therapeutic/prognostic decision-making, will be highly valuable for the discovery and "repurposing" of existing biomarkers (and their specific targeted therapies), leading to improved patient therapeutic stratification, a key component of targeted therapy success for the avoidance of therapy resistance.

Project description:Recent research on multi-view clustering algorithms for complex disease subtyping often overlooks aspects like clustering stability and critical assessment of prognostic relevance. Furthermore, current frameworks do not allow for a comparison between data-driven and pathway-driven clustering, highlighting a significant gap in the methodology. We present the COPS R-package, tailored for robust evaluation of single and multi-omics clustering results. COPS features advanced methods, including similarity networks, kernel-based approaches, dimensionality reduction, and pathway knowledge integration. Some of these methods are not accessible through R, and some correspond to new approaches proposed with COPS. Our framework was rigorously applied to multi-omics data across seven cancer types, including breast, prostate, and lung, utilizing mRNA, CNV, miRNA, and DNA methylation data. Unlike previous studies, our approach contrasts data- and knowledge-driven multi-view clustering methods and incorporates cross-fold validation for robustness. Clustering outcomes were assessed using the ARI score, survival analysis via Cox regression models including relevant covariates, and the stability of the results. While survival analysis and gold-standard agreement are standard metrics, they vary considerably across methods and datasets. Therefore, it is essential to assess multi-view clustering methods using multiple criteria, from cluster stability to prognostic relevance, and to provide ways of comparing these metrics simultaneously to select the optimal approach for disease subtype discovery in novel datasets. Emphasizing multi-objective evaluation, we applied the Pareto efficiency concept to gauge the equilibrium of evaluation metrics in each cancer case-study. Affinity Network Fusion, Integrative Non-negative Matrix Factorization, and Multiple Kernel K-Means with linear or Pathway Induced Kernels were the most stable and effective in discerning groups with significantly different survival outcomes in several case studies.
