Abstract
BACKGROUND: Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) is the most common kidney cancer and includes several molecular and histological subtypes with different clinical characteristics. The combination of DNA methylation and gene expression data can improve the classification of tumor heterogeneity, by incorporating differences at the epigenetic level and clinical features. METHODS: In this study, we identified the prognostic methylation and constructed specific prognosis-subgroups based on the DNA methylation spectrum of RCC from the TCGA database. RESULTS: Significant differences in DNA methylation profiles among the seven subgroups were revealed by consistent clustering using 3389 CpGs that indicated that were significant differences in prognosis. The specific DNA methylation patterns reflected differentially in the clinical index, including TNM classification, pathological grade, clinical stage, and age. In addition, 437 CpGs corresponding to 477 genes of 151 samples were identified as specific hyper/hypomethylation sites for each specific subgroup. A total of 277 and 212 genes corresponding to DNA methylation at promoter sites were enriched in transcription factor of GKLF and RREB-1, respectively. Finally, Bayesian network classifier with specific methylation sites was constructed and was used to verify the test set of prognoses into DNA methylation subgroups, which was found to be consistent with the classification results of the train set. DNA methylation-based classification can be used to identify the distinct subtypes of renal cell carcinoma. CONCLUSIONS: This study shows that DNA methylation-based classification is highly relevant for future diagnosis and treatment of renal cell carcinoma as it identifies the prognostic value of each epigenetic subtype.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
