Abstract

Specific methylation sites have shown promise in the early diagnosis of lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD). However, their utility in predicting LUAD prognosis remains unclear. This study aimed to construct a reliable methylation-based predictor for accurately predicting the prognosis of LUAD patients. DNA methylation data and survival data from LUAD patients were obtained from the TCGA and a GEO series. A DNA methylation-based signature was developed using univariate least absolute shrinkage and selection operators and multivariate Cox regression models. Eight CpG sites were identified and validated as optimal prognostic signatures for the overall survival of LUAD patients. Receiver operating characteristic analysis demonstrated the high predictive ability of the eight-site methylation signature combined with clinical factors for overall survival. This research successfully identified a novel eight-site methylation signature for predicting the overall survival of LUAD patients through bioinformatic integrated analysis of gene methylation markers used in the early diagnosis of lung cancer.
