To calculate a final prognostic index, gene Z scores were averaged by outcome association and then subtracted such that the average of poor outcome probesets was subtracted from the average of good outcome probesets, resulting in positive correlation to DMFS. Again, 10 year DMFS was used as the clinical endpoint and Cox PH Regression, C, and HRs were used to evaluate signature performance.
