The 14 pairs of FF and FFPE data for the application of 95GC to FFPE in 2019

The study aimed to apply 95GC, originally developed using fresh‑frozen (FF) tissues, to formalin‑fixed paraffin‑embedded (FFPE) tissues, because FFPE tissues are routinely prepared and are readily available. Although we previously reported the applicability of 72GC to FFPE tissues (DOI: 10.1016/j.clbc.2013.11.006), the present study aimed to improve the accuracy of 95GC for FFPE tissues using the reference robust multiarray average (refRMA) method, optimized for FFPE tissues. Therefore, a 95GC RS (Recurrence Score) was first developed and then the accuracy of the newly developed 95GC algorithm for FFPE tissues was evaluated using the 95GC RS. These 14 pairs of FF and FFPE data are included in the concordance analysis of 95GC high/low results between FF and FFPE (Figure 3B). J05 was created in a form more suited to the actual clinical setting, such as leaving the postoperative samples for 4 hours before immersing them in formalin. A long time passed, and now it is unclear how these 14 cases were distributed among the analysis. *Note: This old data has been updated multiple times by the other members. Then, there are some differences from the original paper and unclear points still remain. Therefore, do not use it for formal analysis aimed at public insurance coverage etc. This is for research purposes only. Please cite this paper when writing a new paper. PMID: 31638234 DOI: 10.3892/or.2019.7358 RNA was extracted from 14 pairs of FF (fresh frozen) and FFPE (Formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded) tumor samples obtained from radical breast cancer surgery and hybridized on Affymetrix microarrays.
