New benchmark TRAPS evaluates AI for cancer therapy prediction

Researchers have developed TRAPS, a new benchmark for pathway-guided cancer therapy response modeling. The study evaluated three biologically informed deep learning architectures—BINN, GraphPath, and PATH—across five cancer cohorts from The Cancer Genome Atlas, totaling 2,622 patients. Results indicated that no single architecture excelled across all prediction tasks, with PATH showing strength in targeted molecular therapy, BINN in survival prediction, and GraphPath achieving a notable AUROC of 0.92 for prostate cancer targeted molecular therapy. AI
