AIM Lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) and lung squamous-cell carcinoma (LUSC) are two major subtypes of lung cancer and constitute about 70% of all the lung cancer cases. The patient's lifespan and living quality will be significantly improved if they are diagnosed at an early stage and adequately treated. METHODS & RESULTS This study comprehensively screened the proteomic dataset of both LUAD and LUSC, and proposed classification models for the progression stages of LUAD and LUSC with accuracies 86.51 and 89.47%, respectively. DISCUSSION & CONCLUSION A comparative analysis was also carried out on related transcriptomic datasets, which indicates that the proposed biomarkers provide discerning power for accurate stage prediction, and will be improved when larger-scale proteomic quantitative technologies become available.
