Objective: We aimed to explore the prognostic implication for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) based on the expression profiles of circadian clock-related genes (CCRGs), and describe the changes of immune infiltration and cell functions of related to the circadian rhythm. Methods: Univariate and multivariate Cox proportional hazard regression were performed to determine a CCRGs risk-score significantly correlated with overall survival (OS) of the training set and validation set. GO, KEGG, and GSVA indicated discrepant changes in cellular processes and signaling pathways associated with these CCRGs. Immune cell infiltration and mutation rates were investigated by the online analysis platform and the algorithm provided by works of literature.
