Limited treatment strategies are available for squamous-cell lung cancer (SQLC) patients. Few studies have addressed whether immune-related genes (IRGs) or the tumor immune microenvironment can predict the prognosis for SQLC patients. Our study aimed to construct a signature predict prognosis for SQLC patients based on IRGs.
We constructed and validated a signature from SQLC patients in The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) using bioinformatics analysis. The underlying mechanisms of the signature were also explored with immune cells and mutation profiles.
A total of 464 eligible SQLC patients from TCGA dataset were enrolled and were randomly divided into the training cohort (
Our study constructed and validated an 8-IRG signature prognostic model that predicts clinical outcomes for SQLC patients. However, this signature model needs further validation with a larger number of patients.

鳞状细胞肺癌预后免疫特征的构建以预测生存
鳞状细胞肺癌(SQLC)患者的治疗策略有限。很少有研究探讨免疫相关基因(IRG)或肿瘤免疫微环境能否预测SQLC患者的预后。我们的研究旨在基于IRGs为SQLC患者构建特征性的预后预测。
我们使用生物信息学分析在癌症基因组图谱(TCGA)中构建并验证了SQLC患者的签名。还使用免疫细胞和突变图谱探索了签名的潜在机制。
来自TCGA数据集的464名合格的SQLC患者入组,并随机分为训练组(
我们的研究构建并验证了可预测SQLC患者临床预后的8-IRG签名预后模型。但是,此签名模型需要更多患者的进一步验证。
