Path2Omics: Enhanced transcriptomic and methylation prediction accuracy from tumor histopathology.

ABSTRACT: Precision oncology is becoming increasingly integral to clinical practice, demonstrating notable improvements in treatment outcomes. While molecular data provide comprehensive insights, obtaining such data remains costly and time-consuming. To address this challenge, we developed Path2Omics, a deep learning model that predicts gene expression and methylation from histopathology for 23 cancer types. Path2Omics was trained on 20,497 slides (9,456 formalin-fixed and paraffin-embedded (FFPE) and 11,041 fresh frozen (FF)) from 8,007 patients across 23 The Cancer Genome Atlas cohorts. When tested on FFPE slides, the most readily available format in clinical pathology practice, the integrated model outperformed its individual FF and FFPE components, robustly predicting nearly 5,000 genes on avera
