ScDR: Predicting Drug Response at Single-Cell Resolution.

ABSTRACT: Heterogeneity exists inter- and intratumorally, which might lead to different drug responses. Therefore, it is extremely important to clarify the drug response at single-cell resolution. Here, we propose a precise single-cell drug response (scDR) prediction method for single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) data. We calculated a drug-response score (DRS) for each cell by integrating drug-response genes (DRGs) and gene expression in scRNA-seq data. Then, scDR was validated through internal and external transcriptomics data from bulk RNA-seq and scRNA-seq of cell lines or patient tissues. In addition, scDR could be used to predict prognoses for BLCA, PAAD, and STAD tumor samples. Next, comparison with the existing method using 53,502 cells from 198 cancer cell lines showed the higher accuracy of scDR. Finally, we identified an intrinsic resistant cell subgroup in melanoma, and explored the possible mechanisms, such as cell cycle activation, by applying scDR to time series scRNA-seq data of dabrafenib treatment. Altogether, scDR was a credible method for drug response prediction at single-cell resolution, and helpful in drug resistant mechanism exploration.

Project description:BackgroundPredicting patient drug response based on a patient's molecular profile is one of the key goals of precision medicine in breast cancer (BC). Multiple drug response prediction models have been developed to address this problem. However, most of them were developed to make sensitivity predictions for multiple single drugs within cell lines from various cancer types instead of a single cancer type, do not take into account drug properties, and have not been validated in cancer patient-derived data. Among the multi-omics data, gene expression profiles have been shown to be the most informative data for drug response prediction. However, these models were often developed with individual genes. Therefore, this study aimed to develop a drug response prediction model for BC using multiple data types from both cell lines and drugs.MethodsWe first collected the baseline gene expression profiles of 49 BC cell lines along with IC50 values for 220 drugs tested in these cell lines from Genomics of Drug Sensitivity in Cancer (GDSC). Using these data, we developed a multiple-layer cell line-drug response network (ML-CDN2) by integrating a one-layer cell line similarity network based on the pathway activity profiles and a three-layer drug similarity network based on the drug structures, targets, and pan-cancer IC50 profiles. We further used ML-CDN2 to predict the drug response for new BC cell lines or patient-derived samples.ResultsML-CDN2 demonstrated a good predictive performance, with the Pearson correlation coefficient between the observed and predicted IC50 values for all GDSC cell line-drug pairs of 0.873. Also, ML-CDN2 showed a good performance when used to predict drug response in new BC cell lines from the Cancer Cell Line Encyclopedia (CCLE), with a Pearson correlation coefficient of 0.718. Moreover, we found that the cell line-derived ML-CDN2 model could be applied to predict drug response in the BC patient-derived samples from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA).ConclusionsThe ML-CDN2 model was built to predict BC drug response using comprehensive information from both cell lines and drugs. Compared with existing methods, it has the potential to predict the drug response for BC patient-derived samples.
