Objective:
In this study, we aimed to identify prognostic immune-related genes and establish a prognostic model for laryngeal cancer based on these genes.
Methods:
Transcriptome profiles and clinical data of patients with laryngeal cancer were downloaded from The Cancer Genome Atlas database. Integrated bioinformatics analyses were performed to identify genes associated with prognosis.
Results:
Thirty prognostic immune-related genes for laryngeal cancer were identified. We constructed a regulatory network of prognosis comprising transcription factors and immune-related genes. Multivariate Cox regression analyses identified 15 immune-related genes in the network that were used to establish the prognostic model. The model exhibited excellent prognostic prediction ability with a high area under the curve value (0.916). The calculated risk score based on expression of the 15 immune-related genes was shown to be an independent prognostic factor for laryngeal cancer.
Conclusion:
We identified prognostic immune-related genes and established a prognostic model for laryngeal cancer, which might help identify novel predictive biomarkers and therapeutic targets of laryngeal cancer.
