Prototypes for 4x44K PAM50 Subtyping

ABSTRACT: PAM50 intrinsic subtype classification (Parker JS, Mullins M, Cheang MCU, et al: Supervised Risk Predictor of Breast Cancer Based on Intrinsic Subtypes. J Clin Oncol 27:1160-1167, 2009) was used for the Z1031 patient cohort. However, to account for potential technical biases such as differences in platforms and laboratory protocols between the Z1031 data set and the PAM50 training set2, we normalized the Z1301 data set before applying the PAM50 algorithm. This is a critical step that must be taken into consideration for appropriate subtype predictions as our group and others have previously shown3,4. To appropriately normalize the Z1301 microarray data, which is entirely composed of ER-positive tumors, we needed to estimate technical bias from a cohort with equivalent subtype representati
