Abstract:
Christopher Bartlett, Guanghui Liu, Isabelle Bichindaritz Abstract: One biomarker, DNA methylation, has recently become more prevalent in genetic research studies in oncology for its ability to differentiate cancer subtypes. We seek to apply these findings in a study of the diagnostic accuracy of DNA methylation signatures for classifying metastatic cancer tissue. High classification performance measures were obtained from differentially methylated positions, regions and selected gene signatures. Perfect accuracy was achieved with the top 5 feature-selected genes. This work contributes to the path toward the identification of biological signatures for oncology samples using case-based reasoning.
