Abstract
Purpose: The aim of this study was to explore the immune subtypes of endometrial cancer (EC) and its characteristics by immunogenes from the perspective of multidimensional genomics (multi-omics).
Patients and methods: Immune subtypes were carried out using an unsupervised non-negative matrix factorization clustering (NMF) method and their characteristics were analysed. Key genes were identified using random forest analysis. A predictive model for immune subtypes and their clinical prognosis were constructed. The relationship between immune subtypes and molecular subtypes was investigated.
Results: Two immune subtypes C1 and C2 were available. C2 patients were younger, less graded, had significantly higher immune cell infiltration, immune checkpoint expression, tumor neoantigens, tumor mutation load than C1 (P<005). S100A9, CD3D, CD3E, HLA-DRB1 and IL2RB were the key genes with significant survival outcomes. S100A9 expression was lower in C2 than C1, and IL2RB, HLA-DRB1, CD3E and CD3D expression was higher than C1 (P<0.05). The predictive accuracy of five key genes for immune subtypes was good, with a Receiver operating characteristic of 0.941. The incidence of TP53abn type in C2 was significantly lower than that of C1, and the incidence of POLE type was significantly higher than that of C1 (P<0.0001).
Conclusion: EC can be divided into two immune subtypes based on immunogenes. Low expression of S100A9 and high expression of IL2RB, HLA-DRB1, CD3E, and CD3D suggest sensitivity to immunotherapy and a good prognosis.
