Increasing evidence indicates an association between the immune signature and Grade II/III glioma prognosis. Thus, we aimed to develop an immune-related gene pair (IRGP) signature that can be used as a prognostic tool in Grade II/III glioma.Methods: The gene expression levels and clinical information of Grade II/III glioma patients were collected from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) and Chinese Glioma Genome Atlas (CGGA) databases. The TCGA data were randomly divided into a training cohort (n = 249) and a validation cohort (n = 162), and a CGGA dataset served as an external validation group (n = 605). IRGPs significantly associated with prognosis were selected by Cox regression. Gene set enrichment analysis and filtration were performed with the IRGPs.Results: Within a set of 1991 immune genes, 8 IRGPs including 15 unique genes that significantly affect survival constituted a gene signature. In the validation datasets, the IRGP signature significantly stratified patients with Grade II/III glioma into low- and high-risk groups (P < 0.001), and the IRGP index was found to be an independent prognostic factor through univariate and multivariate analyses (P < 0.05). Additionally, 26 functional pathways were identified through the intersection of Gene Set Enrichment Analysis (GSEA) and Gene Ontology (GO) enrichment analysis.Conclusion: The IRGP signature demonstrated good prognostic value for Grade II/III gliomas, which may provide new insights into individual treatment for glioma patients.
