Abstract
En 中文
The search for prognostic biomarkers capable of predicting patient outcomes, by analyzing gene expression in tissue samples and other molecular profiles, remains largely focused on single-gene-based or global-gene-search approaches. Gene-centric approaches, while foundational, fail to capture the higher-order dependencies that reflect the activities of co-regulated processes, pathway alterations, and regulatory networks, all of which are crucial in determining the patient outcomes in complex diseases like cancer. Here, we introduce GPS-Net, a computational framework that fills the gap in efficiently identifying prognostic modules by incorporating the holistic pathway structures and the network of gene interactions. By innovatively incorporating advanced multiple kernel learning techniques and network-based regularization, the proposed method not only enhances the accuracy of biomarker and pathway identification but also significantly reduces computational complexity, as demonstrated by extensive simulation studies. Applying GPS-Net, we identified key pathways that are predictive of patient outcomes in a cancer immunotherapy study. Overall, our approach provides a novel framework that renders genome-wide pathway-level prognostic analysis both feasible and scalable, synergizing both mechanism-driven and data-driven methodologies for precision genomics.
