A cancer-associated fibroblast subtypes-based signature enables the evaluation of immunotherapy response and prognosis in bladder cancer
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Bladder cancer (BLCA) is one of the most prevalent and heterogeneous urinary malignant tumors. Previous researches have reported a significant association between cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) and poor prognosis of tumor patients. However, uncertainty surrounds the role of CAFs in the BLCA tumor microenvironment, necessitating further investigation into the CAFs-related gene signatures in BLCA. In this study, we identified three CAF subtypes in BLCA according to single-cell RNA-seq data and constructed CAFs-related risk score (CRRS) by screening 102,714 signatures. The survival analysis, ROC curves, and nomogram suggested that CRRS was a valuable predictor in 2,042 patients from 9 available public datasets and Xiangya real-world cohort. We further revealed the significant correlation between CRRS and clinicopathological characteristics, genome alterations, and epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT). A high CRRS indicated a non-inflamed phenotype and a lower remission rate of immunotherapy in BLCA. In conclusion, the CRRS had the potential to predict the prognosis and immunotherapy response of BLCA patients.

How this classification was reachedexpand
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 itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
