Prediction of clinical outcome and survival in soft-tissue sarcoma using a ten-lncRNA signature.

ABSTRACT: The prognostic value of long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) in patients with soft-tissue sarcoma has rarely been unraveled. The aim of the study was to find a lncRNA signature to predict the clinical outcome and survival in soft-tissue sarcoma based on the high-throughput RNA-seq data from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database. The lncRNAs which closely correlated with overall survival in 258 soft-tissue sarcoma patients were identified with Cox proportional regression model. Ten lncRNAs, including RP11-560J1.2, AP001432.14, RP4-665J23.1, LINC00680, AC006129.2, RP11-230G5.2, BACH1-IT2, RP11-274B21.9, RP11-504A18.1 and RP11-713P17.3, were selected to calculate a risk score. The risk score could effectively predict patients' outcome, such as the status of mitotic count of tumor cells, person ne
