Across CCLE and GDSC cell-line panels, response to Vismodegib is significantly associated with the shRNA pathway dependency of multiple pathways, with URINARY_TRACT cell lines showing a particularly strong set of associations.
The most reproducible Vismodegib response-associated pathways across cancer lineages are Branched-chain amino acid metabolic process, Microtubule-based transport, and Transport along microtubule, each associated with drug response in up to 7 lineages. Since the analysis identifies associations rather than directional relationships, both response-to-biomarker and biomarker-to-response views are provided.
Each biomarker is linked to its corresponding Q-omics profile. The scatter plot shows the strongest observed association, Vismodegib response versus Branched-chain amino acid metabolic process shRNA pathway dependency in URINARY_TRACT (Pearson r = 0.83).
