Multi-modal optimization to identify personalized biomarkers for disease prediction of individual patients with cancer
Open accessAbstract
Finding personalized biomarkers for disease prediction of patients with cancer remains a massive challenge in precision medicine. Most methods focus on one subnetwork or module as a network biomarker; however, this ignores the early warning capabilities of other modules with different configurations of biomarkers (i.e. multi-modal personalized biomarkers). Identifying such modules would not only predict disease but also provide effective therapeutic drug target information for individual patients. To solve this problem, we developed a novel model (denoted multi-modal personalized dynamic network biomarkers (MMPDNB)) based on a multi-modal optimization mechanism and personalized dynamic network biomarker (PDNB) theory, which can provide multiple modules of personalized biomarkers and unveil their multi-modal properties. Using the genomics data of patients with breast or lung cancer from The Cancer Genome Atlas database, we validated the effectiveness of the MMPDNB model. The experimental results showed that compared with other advanced methods, MMPDNB can more effectively predict the critical state with the highest early warning signal score during cancer development. Furthermore, MMPDNB more significantly identified PDNBs containing driver and biomarker genes specific to cancer tissues. More importantly, we validated the biological significance of multi-modal PDNBs, which could provide effective drug targets of individual patients as well as markers for predicting early warning signals of the critical disease state. In conclusion, multi-modal optimization is an effective method to identify PDNBs and offers a new perspective for understanding tumor heterogeneity in cancer precision medicine.

Nontextual data types play a crucial role in diagnosis, effective treatment planning, research, and patient care.

The Introduction (page unavailable) describes using patients’ genomic data to predict early warning signals of cancer, and the Biologic significance section (page unavailable) identifies potential drug targets for early intervention. This supports a narrower point about nontextual molecular data in cancer prediction and treatment research, but not the broad claim about nontextual data types across diagnosis, effective treatment planning, research, and patient care. The paper’s “multi-modal” refers to alternative biomarker configurations, not different data types. (LLM, conf=0.83)

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
