Integrated Multiomics Analyses Revealing Different Molecular Profiles Between Early- and Late-Stage Lung Adenocarcinoma.

ABSTRACT: The molecular differences in genetic and epigenetic profiling between early-stage (ES) and late-stage (LS) lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD), which might help to understand cancer progression and biomarker guided precision treatment, need further be investigated. In this study, we performed comprehensive analysis using multi-omics next-generation sequencing (NGS) on tissue samples from 7 ES (stage I) and 10 LS (stage III/IV) LUAD patients to study molecular characteristics between the two groups. Characterization of the genomic and transcriptomic profiles showed stage-specific somatic mutations, copy number variations (CNVs) and differentially expressed genes (DEGs). LS samples tend to have more TP53, ERBB2 and CHD4 mutations. Gene copy number loss occurs in immune-related gene pathways in the la
