Establishment and validation of an immunodiagnostic model for prediction of breast cancer.

ABSTRACT: Serum autoantibodies that react with tumor-associated antigens (TAAs) can be used as potential biomarkers for diagnosis of cancer. This study aims to evaluate the immunodiagnostic value of 11 anti-TAAs autoantibodies for detection of breast cancer (BC) and establish a diagnostic model for distinguishing BC from normal human controls (NHC) and benign breast diseases (BBD). Sera from 10 BC patients and 10 NHC were used to detect 11 anti-TAAs autoantibodies by western blotting. The 11 anti-TAAs autoantibodies were further assessed in 983 sera by relative quantitative enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Binary logistic regression and Fisher linear discriminant analysis were conducted to establish a prediction model by using 184 BC and 184 NHC (training cohort, n = 568) and validated by leave-one-out cross-validation. Logistic regression model was selected to establish the prediction model. Results were validated using an independent validation cohort (n = 415). The five anti-TAAs (p53, cyclinB1, p16, p62, 14-3-3?) autoantibodies were selected to construct the model with the area under the curve (AUC) of 0.943 (95% CI, 0.919-0.967) in training cohort and 0.916 (95% CI, 0.886-0.947) in the validation cohort. In the identification of BC and BBD, AUCs were 0.881 (95% CI, 0.848-0.914) and 0.849 (95% CI, 0.803-0.894) in training and validation cohort, respectively. In summary, our study indicates that the immunodiagnostic model can distinguish BC from NHC and BC from BBD and this model may have a potential application in immunodiagnosis of breast cancer.

Project description:BackgroundThe incidence of non-small cell lung cancer ranks second among malignant tumors, while the mortality rate ranks first. We established a prediction model for the long-term prognosis of lung cancer patients to accurately identify patients with a high risk of postoperative death and provide a theoretical basis for improving the prognosis of patients with non-small cell lung cancer.MethodsThe data of 277 non-small cell lung cancer patients who underwent radical lung cancer resection at Shanghai Fengxian District Central Hospital between January 2016 and December 2017 were retrospectively collected. The patients, who were followed up for 5 years, were divided into a deceased group (n=127) and survival group (n=150) according to whether the patients had died 5 years after surgery or not. The clinical characteristics of the two groups were observed, and the risk factors of death within 5 years of surgery in lung cancer patients were analyzed. A nomogram predictive model was then established to analyze the value of the model in predicting the death within 5 years of surgery in patients with non-small cell lung cancer.ResultsMultivariate logistics regression analysis showed that carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) >193.5 ng/mL, stage III lung cancer, peritumor invasion, and vascular tumor thrombus were independent risk factors of tumor-specific death after surgery in patients with non-small cell lung cancer (P<0.05). R 4.0.3 statistical software was used to randomly divide the dataset into a training set and validation set. The sample size of the training set was 194, and the sample size of the validation set was 83. The area under the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was 0.850 [95% confidence interval (CI): 0.796-0.905] in the training set, and it was 0.779 (95% CI: 0.678-0.880) in the validation set. In the validation set, the model was assessed using the Hosmer-Lemeshow goodness-of-fit test, with a chi-square value of 9.270 and a P value of 0.320.ConclusionsOur model could accurately identify high risk of death within 5 years of surgery in non-small cell lung cancer patients. Strengthening the management of high-risk patients may help improve the prognosis of these patients.

Project description:BackgroundMultiple common variants identified by genome-wide association studies have shown limited evidence of the risk of breast cancer in Chinese individuals. In this study, we aimed to uncover the relationship between estrogen levels and the genetic polymorphism of estrogen metabolism-related enzymes in breast cancer (BC) and establish a risk prediction model composed of estrogen-metabolizing enzyme genes and GWAS-identified breast cancer-related genes based on a polygenic risk score.MethodsUnrelated BC patients and healthy subjects were recruited for analysis of estrogen levels and single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in genes encoding estrogen metabolism-related enzymes. The polygenic risk score (PRS) was used to explore the combined effect of multiple genes, which was calculated using a Bayesian approach. An independent sample t-test was used to evaluate the differences between PRS scores of BC and healthy subjects. The discriminatory accuracy of the models was compared using the area under the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve.ResultsThe estrogen homeostasis profile was disturbed in BC patients, with parent estrogens (E1, E2) and carcinogenic catechol estrogens (2/4-OHE1, 2-OHE2, 4-OHE2) significantly accumulating in the serum of BC patients. We then established a PRS model to evaluate the role of SNPs in multiple genes. PRS model 1 (M1) was established from SNPs in 6 GWAS-identified high risk genes. On the basis of M1, we added SNPs from 7 estrogen metabolism enzyme genes to establish PRS model 2 (M2). The independent sample t-test results showed that there was no difference between BC and healthy subjects in M1 (P = 0.17); however, there was a significant difference between BC and healthy subjects in M2 (P = 4.9*10- 5). The ROC curve results showed that the accuracy of M2 (AUC = 62.18%) in breast cancer risk identification was better than that of M1 (AUC = 54.56%).ConclusionEstrogen and related metabolic enzyme gene polymorphisms are closely related to BC. The model constructed by adding estrogen metabolic enzyme gene SNPs has a good predictive ability for breast cancer risk, and the accuracy is greatly improved compared with that of the PRS model that only includes GWAS-identified gene SNPs.

Project description:BackgroundsIn contrast to developed countries, breast cancer in China is characterized by a rapidly escalating incidence rate in the past two decades, lower survival rate, and vast geographic variation. However, there is no validated risk prediction model in China to aid early detection yet.MethodsA large nationwide prospective cohort, China Kadoorie Biobank (CKB), was used to evaluate relative and attributable risks of invasive breast cancer. A total of 300,824 women free of any prior cancer were recruited during 2004-2008 and followed up to Dec 31, 2016. Cox models were used to identify breast cancer risk factors and build a relative risk model. Absolute risks were calculated by incorporating national age- and residence-specific breast cancer incidence and non-breast cancer mortality rates. We used an independent large prospective cohort, Shanghai Women's Health Study (SWHS), with 73,203 women to externally validate the calibration and discriminating accuracy.ResultsDuring a median of 10.2 years of follow-up in the CKB, 2287 cases were observed. The final model included age, residence area, education, BMI, height, family history of overall cancer, parity, and age at menarche. The model was well-calibrated in both the CKB and the SWHS, yielding expected/observed (E/O) ratios of 1.01 (95% confidence interval (CI), 0.94-1.09) and 0.94 (95% CI, 0.89-0.99), respectively. After eliminating the effect of age and residence, the model maintained moderate but comparable discriminating accuracy compared with those of some previous externally validated models. The adjusted areas under the receiver operating curve (AUC) were 0.634 (95% CI, 0.608-0.661) and 0.585 (95% CI, 0.564-0.605) in the CKB and the SWHS, respectively.ConclusionsBased only on non-laboratory predictors, our model has a good calibration and moderate discriminating capacity. The model may serve as a useful tool to raise individuals' awareness and aid risk-stratified screening and prevention strategies.

Project description:Purpose Aromatase inhibitors (AIs) have an established role in breast cancer treatment. Response rates are only 50-70% in the neoadjuvant setting and lower in advanced disease. Accurate biomarkers are urgently needed to predict response in these settings and to determine which individuals will benefit from adjuvant AI therapy. Participants and Methods Pre- and on-treatment (after 2 weeks and 3 months) biopsies were obtained from 89 post-menopausal women with ER+ breast cancer receiving neoadjuvant letrozole for transcript profiling. Dynamic clinical response was assessed by three-dimensional ultrasound measurements. Results The molecular response to letrozole was characterised and a four gene classifier of clinical response was established (accuracy of 96%) based upon the level of two genes prior to treatment (one associated with immune signalling, IL6ST and the other with apoptosis, NGFRAP1) and two proliferation genes (ASPM, MCM4) at 2 weeks of therapy. The four gene signature was found to be 91% accurate in a blinded, completely independent validation dataset of patients treated with anastrozole. Matched 2 week on-treatment biopsies improved predictive power over pre-treatment biopsies alone. This signature also significantly predicted recurrence free survival (p=0.029) and breast cancer specific survival (p=0.009). We demonstrate that the test can also be performed using quantitative PCR or immunohistochemistry. Conclusion A four gene predictive model of clinical response to AIs by two weeks has been generated and validated. Deregulated immune and apoptotic responses before treatment and a failure to reduce proliferation by 2 weeks are functional characteristics of breast tumours that do not respond to AIs. 25 Pre treatment, 25 two week and 25 three month on-treatment primary breast tumour samples from the same patients. Data was analysed with two previously generated datasets, GSE55374 which was also processed on Illumina HT-12v4 BeadChips (GPL10558) and GSE20181 on Affymetrix U133A GeneChips (GPL96)

Project description:Drug-induced cardiotoxicity is one of the main causes of drug failure, which leads to subsequent withdrawal from pharmaceutical development. Therefore, identifying the potential toxic candidate in the early stages of drug development is important. Human induced pluripotent stem cell-derived cardiomyocytes (hiPSC-CMs) are a useful tool for assessing candidate compounds for arrhythmias. However, a suitable model using hiPSC-CMs to predict the risk of torsade de pointes (TdP) has not been fully established. The present study aimed to establish a predictive TdP model based on hiPSC-CMs. In the current study, 28 compounds recommended by the Comprehensive in vitro Proarrhythmia Assay (CiPA) were used as training set and models were established in different risk groups, high- and intermediate-risk versus low-risk groups. Subsequently, six endpoints of electrophysiological responses were used as potential model predictors. Accuracy, sensitivity and area under the curve (AUC) were used as evaluation indices of the models and seven compounds with known TdP risk were used to verify model differentiation and calibration. The results showed that among the seven models, the AUC of logistic regression and AdaBoost model was higher and had little difference in both training and test sets, which indicated that the discriminative ability and model stability was good and excellent, respectively. Therefore, these two models were taken as submodels, similar weight was configured and a new TdP risk prediction model was constructed using a soft voting strategy. The classification accuracy, sensitivity and AUC of the new model were 0.93, 0.95 and 0.92 on the training set, respectively and all 1.00 on the test set, which indicated good discrimination ability on both training and test sets. The risk threshold was defined as 0.50 and the consistency between the predicted and observed results were 92.8 and 100% on the training and test sets, respectively. Overall, the present study established a risk prediction model for TdP based on hiPSC-CMs which could be an effective predictive tool for compound-induced arrhythmias.
