Accurate prognostic markers are essential for guiding effective lung cancer treatment strategies. The level of 5-hydroxymethylcytosine (5hmC) in tissue is independently associated with overall survival (OS) in lung cancer patients. We explored the prognostic value of cell-free DNA (cfDNA) 5hmC through genome-wide analysis of 5hmC in plasma samples from 97 lung cancer patients. In both training and validation sets, we discovered a cfDNA 5hmC signature significantly associated with OS in lung cancer patients. We built a 5hmC prognostic model and calculated the weighted predictive scores (wp-score) for each sample. Low wp-scores were significantly associated with longer OS compared to high wp-scores in the training [median 22.9 versus 8.2 months; p = 1.30 × 10−10; hazard ratio (HR) 0.04; 95% confidence interval (CI), 0.00–0.16] and validation (median 18.8 versus 5.2 months; p = 0.00059; HR 0.22; 95% CI: 0.09–0.57) sets. The 5hmC signature independently predicted prognosis and outperformed age, sex, smoking, and TNM stage for predicting lung cancer outcomes. Our findings reveal critical genes and signaling pathways with aberrant 5hmC levels, enhancing our understanding of lung cancer pathophysiology. The study underscores the potential of cfDNA 5hmC as a superior prognostic tool for guiding more personalized therapeutic strategies for lung cancer patients. |
