Scripts to extract TCGA data for survival analysis.

awesome-TCGA - Curated list of TCGA resources. For more cancer-related notes, see my Cancer_notes

Data description

Scripts are being transitioned to use the curatedTCGAData and TCGAutils packages. See also cBioPortalData R interface to TCGA and the cBioPortal API.

  • Public data is available through the TCGA2STAT R package, GitHub repo. First, install BiocManager::install("CNTools"), clone the repository git clone https://github.com/zhandong/TCGA2STAT, and install from source install.packages("TCGA2STAT_1.2.tar.gz", repos = NULL, type = "source")

  • Cancer types

  • Data types

  • Clinical values

  • Number of samples per cancer

Data preparation

First, get the data locally using misc/TCGA_preprocessing.R script.

  • Create a folder on a local computer
  • Change the data_dir variable with the path where the downloaded data is stored
  • Run the file line-by-line, or source it
  • By default, RNA-seq data for all cancers will be downloaded and saved as *.rda files
  • In all other scripts, change the data_dir variable to the path where the downloaded data is stored

Analysis examples

Analysis scripts

  • In all other scripts, change Path where the downloaded data is stored, data_dir variable

  • survival.Rmd - a pipeline to run survival analyses for all cancers. Adjust settings cancer = "BRCA" and selected_genes = "IGFBP3" to the desired cancer and gene IDs. These IDs should be the same in TCGA_summary.Rmd that'll summarize the output into Survival analysis summary. Note if subcategories_in_all_cancers <- TRUE, survival analysis is done for all subcategories and all cancers, time consuming.

    • Analysis 1 - Selected genes, selected cancers, no clinical annotations. Results are in <selected_genes>.<cancer>.Analysis1 folder.
    • Exploratory - All genes, selected cancers, no clinical annotations. Not run by default.
    • Analysis 2 - Selected genes, all (or selected) cancers, no clinical annotations. Results are in <selected_genes>.<cancer>.Analysis2 folder.
    • Analysis 3 - Selected genes, all (or, selected) cancers, all unique clinical (sub)groups. Results are in <selected_genes>.<cancer>.Analysis3 folder. Open file global_stats.txt in Excel, sort by p-value (log-rank test) and explore in which clinical (sub)groups expression of the selected gene affects survival the most.
    • Analysis 4 - Selected genes, selected cancers, all combinations of clinical annotations. Not run by default.
    • Analysis 5 - Analysis 5: Clinical-centric analysis. Selected cancer, selected clinical subcategory, survival difference between all pairs of subcategories. Only run for BRCA and OV cancers. Results are in <selected_genes>.<cancer>.Analysis5
    • Analysis 6 - Dimensionality reduction of a gene signature across all cancers using NMF, PCA, or FA For each cancer, extracts gene expression of a signature, reduces its dimensionality, plots a heatmap sorted by the first component, biplots, saves eigenvectors in files named after cancer, signature, method. They are used in correlations.Rmd. Not run by default
  • survival_Neuroblastoma.Rmd - survival analysis for Neuroblastoma samples from TARGET database. Prepare the data with misc/cgdsr_preprocessing.R, see Methods section for data description.

  • TCGA_summary.Rmd - summary report for the survival.Rmd output. In which cancers, and clinical subgroups, expression of the selected gene affects survival the most. Change cancer = "BRCA" and selected_genes = "IGFBP3" to the desired cancer and gene IDs. Uses results from <selected_genes>.<cancer>.Analysis* folders. Survival analysis summary

  • TCGA_CNV.Rmd - Separate samples based on copy number variation of one or several genes, do survival and differential expression analysis on the two groups, and KEGG enrichment. An ad hoc analysis, requires manual intervention.

  • TCGA_stemness.Rmd - correlation of a selected gene with stemness indices, for details, see Malta, Tathiane M., Artem Sokolov, Andrew J. Gentles, Tomasz Burzykowski, Laila Poisson, John N. Weinstein, Bożena Kamińska, et al. “Machine Learning Identifies Stemness Features Associated with Oncogenic Dedifferentiation.” Cell 173, no. 2 (April 2018): 338-354.e15. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.cell.2018.03.034. Results example PDF

  • TCGA_expression.Rmd - Expression of selected genes across all TCGA cancers. Used for comparing expression of two or more genes. Change selected_genes <- "XXXX", can be multiple. Generates a PDF file with a barplot of log2-expression of selected genes across all cancers, with standard errors. Example

  • TCGA_correlations.Rmd - Co-expression analysis of selected gene vs. all others, in selected cancers. Genes best correlating with the selected gene may share common functions, described in the KEGG canonical pathway analysis section. Gene counts are converted to TPM. Multiple cancers, with the ComBat batch correction for the cohort effect. Change selected_genes <- "XXXX" and cancer <- "YYYY" variables. The run saves two RData objects, data/Expression_YYYY.Rda and data/Correlation_XXXX_YYYY.Rda. This speeds up re-runs with the same settings. The full output is saved in results/Results_XXXX_YYYY.xlsx. Example PDF, Example Excel

  • TCGA_correlations_BRCA.Rmd - Co-expression analysis of selected gene vs. all others, in BRCA stratified by PAM50 annotations. The full output is saved in results/Results_XXXX_BRCA_PAM50.xlsx.

  • correlations_one_vs_one.Rmd - Co-expression analysis of two genes across all cancers. The knitted HTML contains table with correlation coefficients and p-values.

  • TCGA_DEGs.Rmd - differential expression analysis of TCGA cohorts separated into groups with high/low expression of selected genes. The results are similar to the correlation results, most of the differentially expressed genes are also best correlated with the selected genes. This analysis is to explicitly look at the extremes of the selected gene expression and identify KEGG pathways that may be affected. Change selected_genes = "XXXX" and cancer = "YYYY". Manually run through line 254 to see which KEGG pathways are enriched. Then, run the code chunk on line 379 to generate a picture of the selected KEGG pathway, Example, adjust the ![](hsa0YYYY.XXXX.png) accordingly. Then, recompile the whole document. Example PDF, Example Excel

  • TCGA_DEGs_clin_subcategories.Rmd - differential expression analysis between pairs of clinical subgroups, e.g., within "race" clinical category pairs of subcategories, e.g., "black or african american" vs. "white" subgroups. Output is saved in one Excel file CANCERTYPE_DEGs_clin_subcategories.xlsx with pairs of worksheets, one containing DEGs and another containing enrichment results. Data tables have headers describing individual comparisons and results.

  • PPI_Networks.Rmd - experimenting with extracting and visualizing data from different PPI databases, for a selected gene.

  • Supplemental_R_script_1.R - a modified script to run gene-specific or global survival analysis, from http://kmplot.com, Source

  • TCPA_correlation.Rmd - experimenting with TCPA data.

The Metastatic Breast Cancer Project is a patient-driven initiative. This study includes genomic data, patient-reported data (pre-pended as PRD), medical record data (MedR), and pathology report data (PATH). All of the titles and descriptive text for the clinical data elements have been finalized in partnership with numerous patients in the project. As these data were generated in a research, not a clinical, laboratory, they are for research purposes only and cannot be used to inform clinical decision-making. All annotations have been de-identified. More information is available at www.mbcproject.org.

Data download: http://www.cbioportal.org/study?id=brca_mbcproject_wagle_2017#summary. Data includes 78 patients, 103 samples, sample-specific clinical annotations, Putative copy-number from GISTIC, MutSig regions
