Integration of machine learning and genome-scale metabolic modeling identifies multi-omics biomarkers for radiation resistance.

ABSTRACT: Resistance to ionizing radiation, a first-line therapy for many cancers, is a major clinical challenge. Personalized prediction of tumor radiosensitivity is not currently implemented clinically due to insufficient accuracy of existing machine learning classifiers. Despite the acknowledged role of tumor metabolism in radiation response, metabolomics data is rarely collected in large multi-omics initiatives such as The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) and consequently omitted from algorithm development. In this study, we circumvent the paucity of personalized metabolomics information by characterizing 915 TCGA patient tumors with genome-scale metabolic Flux Balance Analysis models generated from transcriptomic and genomic datasets. Metabolic biomarkers differentiating radiation-sensitive and -resistant tumors are predicted and experimentally validated, enabling integration of metabolic features with other multi-omics datasets into ensemble-based machine learning classifiers for radiation response. These multi-omics classifiers show improved classification accuracy, identify clinical patient subgroups, and demonstrate the utility of personalized blood-based metabolic biomarkers for radiation sensitivity. The integration of machine learning with genome-scale metabolic modeling represents a significant methodological advancement for identifying prognostic metabolite biomarkers and predicting radiosensitivity for individual patients.

Project description:MotivationMolecular subtyping by integrative modeling of multi-omics and clinical data can help the identification of robust and clinically actionable disease subgroups; an essential step in developing precision medicine approaches.ResultsWe developed a novel outcome-guided molecular subgrouping framework, called Deep Multi-Omics Integrative Subtyping by Maximizing Correlation (DeepMOIS-MC), for integrative learning from multi-omics data by maximizing correlation between all input -omics views. DeepMOIS-MC consists of two parts: clustering and classification. In the clustering part, the preprocessed high-dimensional multi-omics views are input into two-layer fully connected neural networks. The outputs of individual networks are subjected to Generalized Canonical Correlation Analysis loss to learn the shared representation. Next, the learned representation is filtered by a regression model to select features that are related to a covariate clinical variable, for example, a survival/outcome. The filtered features are used for clustering to determine the optimal cluster assignments. In the classification stage, the original feature matrix of one of the -omics view is scaled and discretized based on equal frequency binning, and then subjected to feature selection using RandomForest. Using these selected features, classification models (for example, XGBoost model) are built to predict the molecular subgroups that were identified at clustering stage. We applied DeepMOIS-MC on lung and liver cancers, using TCGA datasets. In comparative analysis, we found that DeepMOIS-MC outperformed traditional approaches in patient stratification. Finally, we validated the robustness and generalizability of the classification models on independent datasets. We anticipate that the DeepMOIS-MC can be adopted to many multi-omics integrative analyses tasks.Availability and implementationSource codes for PyTorch implementation of DGCCA and other DeepMOIS-MC modules are available at GitHub (https://github.com/duttaprat/DeepMOIS-MC).Supplementary informationSupplementary data are available at Bioinformatics Advances online.
