Summary

Medulloblastoma (MONDO:0007959) is a disease (an umbrella term covering 14 Mondo subtypes) caused by variants in SUFU, ELP1, and GPR161, with 27 cohort genes and 144 clinical trials. The dominant Reactome pathway is Hedgehog ‘off’ state (5 cohort genes). Molecularly, PTCH1 LOH confers sensitivity to Vismodegib in Medulloblastoma (CIViC Level B); 7 further subtype–drug associations are mapped below. Top therapeutic interventions include cisplatin, lomustine, and sonidegib.

Distinct Reactome pathways touched by cohort: 275. Enrichment computed across 27 evidence-associated genes (25 with Reactome annotation).

Pathways by enrichment

Over-representation of cohort genes vs the genome-wide background (hypergeometric test, Benjamini-Hochberg FDR; fold = observed/expected over 25 annotated cohort genes). Counts and members are kept as ground-truth; sorted by enrichment.

Pharmacogenomics

Cohort genes with a PharmGKB record: 27; with CPIC/DPWG dosing guidelines: 0.

No cohort gene has a CPIC/DPWG genotype-guided dosing guideline (PharmGKB).

Chemical tractability of cohort targets

28 approved/phased compounds have measured bioactivity against a cohort gene (and aren’t yet in disease-level trials). This is a research / tractability signal, NOT a therapeutic recommendation — a bioactivity row often reflects off-target or screening binding (e.g. promiscuous kinase inhibitors against a cohort kinase), implying no disease mechanism.
