Development and validation of a radiosensitivity model to evaluate radiotherapy benefits in pan-cancer.

ABSTRACT: Radiotherapy, one of the most fundamental cancer treatments, is confronted with the dilemma of treatment failure due to radioresistance. To predict the radiosensitivity and improve tumor treatment efficiency in pan-cancer, we developed a model called Radiation Intrinsic Sensitivity Evaluation (RISE). The RISE model was built using cell line-based mRNA sequencing data from five tumor types with varying radiation sensitivity. Through four cell-derived datasets, two public tissue-derived cohorts, and one local cohort of 42 nasopharyngeal carcinoma patients, we demonstrated that RISE could effectively predict the level of radiation sensitivity (area under the ROC curve [AUC] from 0.666 to 1 across different datasets). After the verification by the colony formation assay and flow cytometric ana
