Summary
Molecular features associated with time-to-event outcomes, such as overall or disease-free survival, may be prognostically relevant or potential therapeutic targets. Therefore, analyzing data from high-throughput genomic assays with clinical follow-up data has been of growing interest. The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) Project has collected baseline demographic, clinical characteristics, and follow-up data for 11,125 patients for 32 different cancer types and corresponding tissue samples were processed for examining SNPs, copy number, methylation, miRNA expression, and mRNA expression. Because th
