TIDE command-line interface and python module

PyPI version PyPI - Format License: GPL v2 Build Status PyPI - Downloads GitHub All Releases

TIDE (Tumor Immune Dysfunction and Exclusion) is a computational framework developed to evaluate the potential of tumor immune escape from the gene expression profiles of cancer samples. This package provides a python implemented CLI, and python module with Pandas inputs and outputs. If you prefer to run TIDE online, please use Response Prediction module on our website : http://tide.dfci.harvard.edu/.

System requirements

  • Linux/Unix
  • Python (>=3.4)

Installation

  • From Source
$ wget https://github.com/jingxinfu/TIDEpy/releases/download/v1.3/TIDEpy-latest.zip
$ unzip TIDEpy-latest.zip
$ cd TIDEpy-latest
$ pip install .
  • Clone from github
$ git clone [email protected]:jingxinfu/TIDEpy.git
$ cd TIDEpy
$ pip install .
  • From the pypi, a python package management tool
$ pip install tidepy

What is the input data format?

The input data should be a square matrix of gene expression profiles for all patients. Each column represents the patient ID, and each row represents a gene name which can be either symbol name (e.g., TGFB1) or Entrez ID (e.g., 7040). Please see some samples from anti-PD1 or anti-CTLA4 therapies in melanoma.

In detail:

Expression File

  1. If it's possible, please input a normalized expression file follows the instruction:

    • The gene expression value should be normalized toward a control sample which could be either normal tissues related with a cancer type or mixture sample from diverse tumor samples. The log2(RPKM+1) values from a RNA-seq experiment may not be meaningful unless a good reference control is available to adjust the batch effect and cancer type difference. In our study, we used the all sample average in each study as the normalization control.

    • Otherwise, We'll do the normalization for you by:

      1. Do the log2(x+1) transformation
      2. Subtract the average across your samples.
  2. If it's possible, please convert your gene identifier into Entrez ID based on your annotation GTF files. Otherwise, we will use our annotation GTF to do the conversion, which is gencode v27.

Cancer Type:

We validated TIDE performance on predicting anti-PD1 and anti-CTLA4 response across several melanoma datasets and a limited dataset of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). TIDE may not work on cancer types other than melanoma and NSCLC (e.g., glioblastoma, or renal cell carcinoma) and therapies other than anti-PD1 and anti-CTLA4 (e.g., anti-PDL1, or Car T).

Usage

Run TIDE through command line:

usage: tidepy [-h] -o OUTPUT -c {Melanoma,NSCLC,Other} [--pretreat]
            [--vthres VTHRES]
            expression

positional arguments:
  expression            Path to expression profile.
  											

optional arguments:
  -h, --help            show this help message and exit
  -o OUTPUT, --output OUTPUT
                        Output Path (default: None)
  -c {Melanoma,NSCLC,Other}, --cancer {Melanoma,NSCLC,Other}
                        Cancer Type (default: None)
  --pretreat            A previous immunotherapy (e.g., progressed after anti-
                        CTLA4 before current anti-PD1) will change the
                        response prediction rule. Please put the flag with
                        previous line of immunotherapy. However, earlier
                        treatments of targeted therapies or chemotherapies
                        should not be considered here, and please do not put
                        the flag. (default: False)
  --vthres VTHRES       Threshold to distinguish responder fron non-responder
                        based on TIDE value. (default: 0.0)

Example

Please download the first example file under Response Prediction module on our website: http://tide.dfci.harvard.edu. The file name should be GSE78220.self_subtract.zip. To obtain the immune-related metrics for this study, you can run following code on your terminal:

$ tidepy GSE78220.self_subtract.zip -o GSE78220.txt -c Melanoma

The output file GSE78220.txt has those columns: No benefits, Responder, TIDE, IFNG, MSI Score, CD274, CD8, CTL.flag, Dysfunction, Exclusion, MDSC, CAF, TAM M2, which are exactly the same with the result outputted from our website.

$ head GSE78220.txt
