FULL NAME
ENLIGHT-DeepPT — Deep-Learning Framework for Cancer Treatment Response from Histopathology Images
DESCRIPTION
ENLIGHT-DeepPT (Deep Phenotyping of Tumors) is a deep-learning framework (ResNet50 + MLP) that predicts genome-wide tumor mRNA expression from routine H&E histopathology images across 16 TCGA cancer types. The imputed transcriptomics then drive treatment response prediction, achieving odds ratio of 2.28 across 5 independent treatment cohorts. Directly links medical imaging (histopathology) with genomics/transcriptomics via AI, enabling precision oncology from standard pathology slides.
TITLE
A deep-learning framework to predict cancer treatment response from histopathology images through imputed transcriptomics.

ABSTRACT
Predicting cancer treatment response from routinely collected clinical material is a central challenge in precision oncology. Here we present ENLIGHT-DeepPT, a deep-learning framework that predicts genome-wide tumor mRNA expression from routine H&E histopathology images. Using a two-stage approach (image-to-transcriptomics via ResNet50 + MLP, then transcriptomics-to-treatment response), ENLIGHT-DeepPT achieves an odds ratio of 2.28 across 5 independent treatment cohorts spanning multiple cancer types and drug classes.
