• For the precise treatment of patients with glioblastoma multiforme (GBM), we classified and detected bevacizumab (BVZ)-responsive subtypes of GBM and found their differential expression (DE) of miRNAs and mRNAs, clinical characteristics, and related functional pathways. Based on miR-21 and miR-10b expression z-scores, approximately 30% of GBM patients were classified as having the GBM BVZ-responsive subtype. For this subtype, GBM patients had a significantly shorter survival time than other GBM patients (p = 0.014), and vascular endothelial growth factor A (VEGF) methylation was significantly lower than that in other GBM patients (p = 0.005). It also revealed 14 DE miRNAs and 7 DE mRNAs and revealed functional characteristics between GBM BVZ subgroups. After comparing several machine learning algorithms, the construction and cross-validation of the SVM classifier were performed. For clinical use, miR-197 was optimized and added to the miRNA panel for better classification. Afterwards, we validated the classifier with several GBM datasets and discovered some key related issues. According to this study, GBM BVZ subtypes can be classified and detected by a combination of SVM classifiers and miRNA panels in existing tissue GBM datasets. With certain modifications, the classifier may be used for the classification and detection of GBM BVZ subtypes for future clinical use.
