Establishment and Validation of an Interferon-Stimulated Genes (ISGs) Prognostic Signature in Pan-cancer Patients: A Multicenter, Real-world Study.

ABSTRACT: Our study aims at developing an interferon-stimulated genes (ISGs) signature that could predict overall survival (OS) in cancer patients, which enrolled a total of 5643 pan-cancer patients. Linear models for microarray data method analysis were conducted to identify the differentially expressed prognostic genes in the global ISGs family. Time-dependent receiver operating characteristic (ROC) and Kaplan-Meier survival analysis were used to test the efficiency of a multi-gene signature in predicting the prognosis of pan-cancer patients. The prognostic performance and potential biological function of gene signature were verified by quantitative real-time PCR in a pan-cancer independent cohort. Three ISGs genes were finally identified to build a classifier, a specific risk score formula, with which patients were classified into the low- or high-risk groups. Time-dependent ROC analyses proved prognostic accuracy. Then, its prognostic value was validated in seven external validation series. A nomogram was constructed to guide the individualized treatment of patients with lung adenocarcinoma. Biological pathway and tumor immune infiltration analysis showed that the signature might cause poor prognosis by blocking NK cell activation. Finally, the signature in our centers was confirmed by real-time quantitative PCR. A robust ISGs-related feature was discovered to effectively classify pan-cancer patients into subgroups with different OS.

Project description:BackgroundNeuroblastoma (NBL) is the most common extracranial solid tumor in childhood, and patients with high-risk neuroblastoma had a relatively poor prognosis despite multimodal treatment. To improve immunotherapy efficacy in neuroblastoma, systematic profiling of the immune landscape in neuroblastoma is an urgent need.MethodsRNA-seq and according clinical information of neuroblastoma were downloaded from the TARGET database and GEO database (GSE62564). With an immune-related-gene set obtained from the ImmPort database, Immune-related Prognostic Gene Pairs for Neuroblastoma (IPGPN) for overall survival (OS) were established with the TARGET-NBL cohort and then verified with the GEO-NBL cohort. Immune cell infiltration analysis was subsequently performed. The integrated model was established with IPGPN and clinicopathological parameters. Immune cell infiltration was analyzed with the XCELL algorithm. Functional enrichment analysis was performed with clusterProfiler package in R.ResultsImmune-related Prognostic Gene Pairs for Neuroblastoma was successfully established with seven immune-related gene pairs (IGPs) involving 13 unique genes in the training cohort. In the training cohort, IPGPN successfully stratified neuroblastoma patients into a high and low immune-risk groups with different OS (HR=3.92, P = 2 × 10-8) and event-free survival (HR=3.66, P=2 × 10-8). ROC curve analysis confirmed its predictive power. Consistently, high IPGPN also predicted worse OS (HR=1.84, P = .002) and EFS in validation cohort (HR=1.38, P = .06) Moreover, higher activated dendritic cells, M1 macrophage, Th1 CD4+, and Th2 CD4+ T cell enrichment were evident in low immune-risk group. Further integrating IPGPN with age and stage demonstrated improved predictive performance than IPGPN alone.ConclusionHerein, we presented an immune landscape with IPGPN for prognosis prediction in neuroblastoma, which complements the present understanding of the immune signature in neuroblastoma.
