A Tumor Progression Model for Hepatocellular Carcinoma: Bioinformatic Analysis of Genomic Data  Terence C.W. Poon, Nathalie Wong, Paul B.S. Lai, Magnus Rattray, Philip J. Johnson, Joseph J.Y.

2 Figure 1 An evolution tree for classifying the 158 HCC cases into 4 classes at 3 different evolution levels was constructed from the significant CGH events by SOTA. The class closest to the root was assigned as SOTA 1, and the 1 in the middle as SOTA 2. There were 2 classes at the bottom taxonomy level, which were grouped as SOTA 3. There were 2 subgroups A and B in the SOTA 3. Gastroenterology  , DOI: ( /j.gastro ) Copyright © 2006 American Gastroenterological Association (AGA) Institute Terms and Conditions

3 Figure 2 Recurrence-free survival analysis of the HCC patients classified by SOTA. Among the 112 HCC patients who received curative tumor resection, the SOTA 3A group had a poorer recurrence-free survival compared to the SOTA 1, SOTA 2, and SOTA 3B groups.

4 Figure 3 The frequency patterns of minimal overlapping regions of the CGH events in the 3 SOTA groups 1, 2 and 3, that potentially represent early (A), intermediate (B), and late-stage (C) events.

5 Figure 4 Hierarchical clustering of the CGH events of SOTA 2 (A) and SOTA 3 (B). *The predicted earlier event(s) that demonstrated the highest occurrence frequency in each branch.
