A miRNA signature for early non-invasive diagnosis of pre-eclampsia

ABSTRACT: Background: Preeclampsia (PE) is a multi-systemic maternal syndrome with substantial maternal and fetal morbidity and mortality. Currently, there is no clinically viable non-invasive biomarker assay for early detection, thus limiting the effective prevention and therapeutic strategies for PE. Methods: We conducted a discovery-training-validation three-phase retrospective and prospective study with cross-platform and multicenter cohorts. The initial biomarkers were discovered and verified in tissue specimens by small RNA sequencing and qRT-PCR. A miRNA signature (miR2PE-score) was developed using the Firth’s bias-reduced logistic regression analysis, and subsequently validated in two independent multinational retrospective cohorts and two prospective plasma cohorts. Results: We initially identified five PE-associated differentially expressed miRNAs from miRNA sequencing data and subsequently validated two miRNAs (miR-196b-5p and miR-584-5p) as robust biomarkers by association analysis with clinical characteristics and qRT-PCR in tissue specimens in the discovery phase. Using the Firth’s bias-reduced logistic regression analysis, we developed the miR2PE-score for the early detection of PE. The miR2PE-score showed a high diagnostic performance with an area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUROC) of 0.920, 0.848, 0.864 and 0.812 in training, internal and two external validation cross-platform and multicenter cohorts, respectively. Finally, we demonstrated the non-invasive diagnostic performance of the miR2PE-score in two prospective plasma cohorts with AUROC of 0.933 and 0.787. Furthermore, the miR2PE-score revealed superior performance in non-invasive diagnosis compared with previously published miRNA biomarkers. Conclusions: We developed and validated a novel and robust blood-based miRNA signature, which may serve as a promising clinically applicable non-invasive tool for the early detection of PE.

Project description:Importance: Severe alcoholic hepatitis (AH) is a highly lethal disease with a 3-month mortality up to 50%. Corticosteroids are the current standard of care although nearly 40% of the patients do not respond and accurate pre-treatment predictors of survival are lacking. Objective: To develop a prognostic score based on molecular and clinical variables before initiation of corticosteroids. Design, Setting, and Participants: Gene expression profiling of fixed liver biopsy obtained for diagnosis of severe AH assessed in 3 independent cohorts (1 prospective cohort for prognostic gene signature and integrative score derivation, and 2 retrospective cohorts for validation). Samples were obtained from 4 European and 1 US medical centers between July 2006 and February 2015. Exposures: Biopsy proven severe AH patients treated with corticosteroids. Main Outcome Measures: Identification of a gene signature combined with a validated clinical index to develop an integrative prognostic score of survival without death or liver transplantation in a derivation cohort (n=71). Prognostic performance of the score was validated in an independent multi-center validation cohort 1 (n=48). Finally, the score was implemented in an FDA-approved clinical diagnostic platform (NanoString) and tested in another independent validation cohort 2 (n=20). Results: A prognostic score, integrating a 123-gene signature and the model for end-stage liver disease (gs-MELD score), was defined in the derivation cohort, in which poor- and good-prognosis patients were discriminated with a cut-off value of 2.66 at 3 months (event-free survival rates of 32% vs. 76%, respectively, p<.001) and 6 months (26% vs. 65%, respectively, p<.001). In the validation cohort 1, the score similarly discriminated poor- and good-prognosis patients at 3 months (43%, [95% CI, 26%-70%] vs. 96% [95% CI, 89%-100%], respectively, p<.001, c-index of 0.83 [95% CI, 0.66-0.99]) and 6 months (34% [95% CI, 18%-61%] vs 84% [95% CI, 72%-100%], respectively, p<.001, c-index of 0.80 [95% CI, 0.66-0.94]), and outperformed other existing clinical indices. The NanoString-based gs-MELD score remained predictive of 3- (p=.03) and 6-month (p=.009) even-free survival in the validation cohort 2. Conclusion and Relevance: The gs-MELD score, incorporating clinically applicable gene signature test and the MELD score, enables pre-treatment survival prediction in severe AH patients.
