DNA Damage Response Gene-Based Subtypes Associated With Clinical Outcomes in Early-Stage Lung Adenocarcinoma.

ABSTRACT: DNA damage response (DDR) pathways play a crucial role in lung cancer. In this retrospective analysis, we aimed to develop a prognostic model and molecular subtype based on the expression profiles of DDR-related genes in early-stage lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD). A total of 1,785 lung adenocarcinoma samples from one RNA-seq dataset of The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) and six microarray datasets of Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) were included in the analysis. In the TCGA dataset, a DNA damage response gene (DRG)-based signature consisting of 16 genes was constructed to predict the clinical outcomes of LUAD patients. Patients in the low-DRG score group had better outcomes and lower genomic instability. Then, the same 16 genes were used to develop DRG-based molecular subtypes in the TCGA dataset to
