Immune checkpoint inhibitors(ICIs) that activate tumor-specific immune responses bring new hope for the treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC). However, there are still some problems, such as uncertain curative effects and low objective response rates, which limit the curative effect of immunotherapy. Therefore, it is an urgent problem to guide the use of ICIs in HCC based on molecular typing. We downloaded the The Cancer Genome Atlas-Liver hepatocellular carcinoma(TCGA-LIHC) and Mongolian-LIHC cohort. Unsupervised clustering was applied to the highly variable data regarding expression of DNA damage repair(DDR). The CIBERSORT was used to evaluate the proportions of immune cells. The connectivity map(CMap) and pRRophetic algorithms were used to predict the drug sensitivity. There were significant differences in DDR molecular subclasses in HCC(DDR1 and DDR2), and DDR1 patients had low expression of DDR-related genes, while DDR2 patients had high expression of DDR-related genes. Of the patients who received traditional treatment, DDR2 patients had significantly worse overall survival(OS) than DDR1 patients. In contrast, of the patients who received ICIs, DDR2 patients had significantly prolonged OS compared with DDR1 patients. Of the patients who received traditional treatment, patients with high DDR scores had worse OS than those with low DDR scores. However, the survival of patients with high DDR scores after receiving ICIs was significantly higher than that of patients with low DDR scores. The DDR scores of patients in the DDR2 group were significantly higher than those of patients in the DDR1 group. The tumor microenvironment(TME) of DDR2 patients was highly infiltrated by activated immune cells, immune checkpoint molecules and proinflammatory molecules and antigen presentation-related molecules. In this study, HCC patients were divided into the DDR1 and DDR2 group. Moreover, DDR status may serve as a potential biomarker to predict opposite clinical prognosis immunotherapy and non-immunotherapy in HCC.

A catalog of gene-expression data collected from human cells treated with chemical compounds and genetic reagents. Computational methods to reduce the number of necessary genomic measurements along with streamlined methodologies enable the current effort to significantly increase the size of the CMap database and along with it, our potential to connect human diseases with the genes that underlie them and the drugs that treat them. The NIH has funded a large expansion of the Connectivity Map dataset through the Library of Integrated Network-based Cellular Signatures (LINCS). The Broad Institute's LINCS center aims to create a first installment of data generation and analysis for the LINCS program. Through these data LINCS intends to accelerate the discovery process by systematically revealing connections between genes/compounds discovered in screens and molecular pathways that underlie disease states.
