Title
A genome-wide survival analysis of non-small cell lung cancers
Summary
Lung cancer, especially non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), is the leading cause of cancer-related deaths all over the world. Individual variation in genetic background may influence treatments and clinical outcomes of NSCLC patients. To better understand the effects of molecular biomarkers, we are going to conduct a genome-wide analysis to investigate the prognostic implications of genetic variants in NSCLC patients. We will perform single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP)-based and gene-based analysis using multivariate logistic regression model and multivariate logistic kernel machine, respectively. Meta-analysis will be adopted to improve statistical power by integrating samples from Harvard School of Public Health (HSPH) and PLCO.
Aims
To identify NSCLC survival risk associated SNPs or genes.
