Q-omics provides the Regulation of platelet-derived growth factor receptor-alpha signaling pathway (GO:2000583) pathway profile, scoring each patient from the combined activity of its roughly 5 member genes. Pathway activity is associated with patient survival in 22 of 34 cancer types, with the highest sampling consensus in HNSC. Among the 18 cancer types available for tumor–normal comparison, the pathway is differentially active in 14, with the highest sampling consensus in HNSC. Additionally, pathway RNA activity shows 35,716 significant cross-omics associations, again with the highest sampling consensus in STAD. Together, these results highlight HNSC, and STAD as cancer lineages where the pathway shows reproducible signals across outcome, tissue activity, and molecular association analyses.

Every result is evaluated using two consensus scores. Sampling consensus measures how consistently a finding is reproduced within a cancer lineage across different conditions. Lineage consensus measures how broadly the result is shared across cancer types, distinguishing pan-cancer signals from lineage-specific patterns. Pathway-against-pathway and pathway-against-mutation comparisons are not available for ontology entities.

Survival associations

This table summarizes Regulation of platelet-derived growth factor receptor-alpha signaling pathway survival associations by molecular data type. RNA-level pathway activity shows survival associations in the most cancer types (22). The rightmost column indicates the cancer type with the highest sampling consensus for each layer.

This table ranks reproducible pathway activity–survival associations across cancer types. High Regulation of platelet-derived growth factor receptor-alpha signaling pathway activity shows favorable associations in HNSC, LGG, UVM, SKCM and CHOL, but unfavorable associations in ACC. In the HNSC Kaplan–Meier curve the low-activity group declines faster, consistent with the favorable association (log-rank p < 0.001). HNSC ranks highest by sampling consensus for Regulation of platelet-derived growth factor receptor-alpha signaling pathway.

This table ranks reproducible tumor–normal activity differences for the pathway. A positive fold-change indicates higher activity in tumor tissue. The pathway shows higher tumor activity across HNSC, KIRC, COAD, LUAD and LUSC and lower tumor activity in BRCA. In the HNSC box plot, tumor samples show higher pathway activity than matched normal samples (log2 FC = +0.133, t-test p < 0.001).
