Abstract
Osteosarcoma (OS) is the most common primary bone malignancy that exhibits remarkable histologic diversity and genetic heterogeneity. The complex nature of osteosarcoma has confounded precise molecular categorization, prognosis, and prediction for this disease. In this study, we performed a comprehensive multiplatform analysis on 86 osteosarcoma tumors, including somatic copy-number alteration, gene expression and methylation, and identified three molecularly distinct and clinically relevant subtypes of osteosarcoma. The subgrouping criteria was validated on another cohort of osteosarcoma tumors. Previously unappreciated osteosarcoma-type-specific changes in specific genes' copy number, expression and methylation were revealed based on the subgrouping. The subgrouping and novel gene signatures provide insights into refining osteosarcoma therapy and relationships to other types of cancer.
