Load data

The data is loaded from an online curated dataset downloaded from TCGA using curatedTCGAData bioconductor package and processed.

To accelerate the process we use a very reduced dataset down to 107 variables only (genes), which is stored as a data object in this package. However, the procedure to obtain the data manually is described in the following chunk.

# chunk not included as it produces to many unnecessary messages
brca <- tryCatch(
    {
        curatedTCGAData(
            diseaseCode = "BRCA",
            assays = "RNASeq2GeneNorm",
            version = "1.1.38",
            dry.run = FALSE
        )
    },
    error = function(err) {
        NULL
    }
)
brca <- curatedTCGAData(
    diseaseCode = "BRCA", assays = "RNASeq2GeneNorm",
    version = "1.1.38", dry.run = FALSE
)
# keep only solid tumour (code: 01)
brcaPrimarySolidTumor <- TCGAutils::TCGAsplitAssays(brca, "01")
xdataRaw <- t(assay(brcaPrimarySolidTumor[[1]]))

# Get survival information
ydataRaw <- colData(brcaPrimarySolidTumor) |>
    as.data.frame() |>
    # Keep only data relative to survival or samples
    dplyr::select(
        patientID, vital_status,
        Days.to.date.of.Death, Days.to.Date.of.Last.Contact,
        days_to_death, days_to_last_followup,
        Vital.Status
    ) |>
    # Convert days to integer
    dplyr::mutate(Days.to.date.of.Death = as.integer(Days.to.date.of.Death)) |>
    dplyr::mutate(
        Days.to.Last.Contact = as.integer(Days.to.Date.of.Last.Contact)
    ) |>
    # Find max time between all days (ignoring missings)
    dplyr::rowwise() |>
    dplyr::mutate(
        time = max(days_to_last_followup, Days.to.date.of.Death,
            Days.to.Last.Contact, days_to_death,
            na.rm = TRUE
        )
    ) |>
    # Keep only survival variables and codes
    dplyr::select(patientID, status = vital_status, time) |>
    # Discard individuals with survival time less or equal to 0
    dplyr::filter(!is.na(time) & time > 0) |>
    as.data.frame()

# Set index as the patientID
rownames(ydataRaw) <- ydataRaw$patientID

# Get matches between survival and assay data
xdataRaw <- xdataRaw[
    TCGAbarcode(rownames(xdataRaw)) %in% rownames(ydataRaw),
]
xdataRaw <- xdataRaw[, apply(xdataRaw, 2, sd) != 0] |>
    scale()

# Order ydata the same as assay
ydataRaw <- ydataRaw[TCGAbarcode(rownames(xdataRaw)), ]

# Using only a subset of genes previously selected to keep this short example.
set.seed(params$seed)
smallSubset <- c(
    "CD5", "CSF2RB", "IRGC", "NEUROG2", "NLRC4", "PDE11A",
    "PTEN", "TP53", "BRAF",
    "PIK3CB", "QARS", "RFC3", "RPGRIP1L", "SDC1", "TMEM31",
    "YME1L1", "ZBTB11", sample(colnames(xdataRaw), 100)
) |>
    unique()

xdata <- xdataRaw[, smallSubset[smallSubset %in% colnames(xdataRaw)]]
ydata <- ydataRaw |> dplyr::select(time, status)

Fit models

Fit model model penalizing by the hubs using the cross-validation function by cv.glmHub.

set.seed(params$seed)
fitted <- cv.glmHub(xdata, Surv(ydata$time, ydata$status),
    family = "cox",
    lambda = buildLambda(1),
    network = "correlation",
    options = networkOptions(
        cutoff = .6,
        minDegree = .2
    )
)

Results of Cross Validation

Shows the results of 100 different parameters used to find the optimal value in 10-fold cross-validation. The two vertical dotted lines represent the best model and a model with less variables selected (genes), but within a standard error distance from the best.

plot(fitted)

Coefficients of selected model from Cross-Validation

Taking the best model described by lambda.min

coefsCV <- Filter(function(.x) .x != 0, coef(fitted, s = "lambda.min")[, 1])
data.frame(
    gene.name = names(coefsCV),
    coefficient = coefsCV,
    stringsAsFactors = FALSE
) |>
    arrange(gene.name) |>
    knitr::kable()

Survival curves and Log rank test

separate2GroupsCox(as.vector(coefsCV),
    xdata[, names(coefsCV)],
    ydata,
    plotTitle = "Full dataset", legendOutside = FALSE
)
