Transcriptomic analysis reveals a WNT signaling pathway-based gene signature prognostic for non-small cell carcinoma.

ABSTRACT: The value of combining multiple candidate genes into a panel to improve biomarker performance is increasingly emphasized. Genes associated with WNT signaling are widely-reported to provide prognostic signatures in non-small cell carcinoma (NSCLC). Screening of genes involved in this signaling pathway facilitated selection of an optimal candidate biomarker gene combination and development of an NSCLC prognostic model based on expression of these genes. Risk scores derived from the model performed well in predicting survival; in the training dataset, samples achieving a high risk score exhibit a shorter survival interval (median survival time 34.8 months, 95% CI 31.1-41.0) than did samples achieving a low risk score (median survival time 72.0 months, 95% CI 59.3-87.5, p=2e-11), and exhibited
