At the same time, understanding the biological processes that drive cancer development can lead to the identification of valuable therapeutic targets. Therefore, achieving accurate and interpretable clinical predictions requires paramount attention to thoroughly characterizing patients at both the molecular and biological pathway levels.  \nResults: Here, we present GraphPath, a biological knowledge-driven graph neural network with multi-head self-attention mechanism that implements the pathway–pathway interaction network. We train GraphPath to classify the cancer status of patients with prostate cancer based on their multi-omics profiling. Experiment results show that our method outperforms P-NET and other baseline methods. Besides, two external cohorts are used to validate that the model can be generalized to unseen samples with adequate predictive performance. We reduce the dimensionality of latent pathway embeddings and visualize corresponding classes to further demonstrate the optimal performance of the model. Additionally, since GraphPath’s predictions are interpretable, we identify target cancer-associated pathways that significantly contribute to the model’s predictions. Such a robust and interpretable model has the potential to greatly enhance our understanding of cancer’s biological mechanisms and accelerate the development of targeted therapies.  \nAvailability and implementation: [https://github.com/amazingma/GraphPath](https://github.com/amazingma/GraphPath).  \n1 Introduction  \nMalignant tumors, commonly referred to as cancer, are a group of diseases in which cells divide continuously and excessively, leading to a major global public health problem (Fitzmaurice et al. 2018, Sung et al. 2021, Xia et al. 2022). Molecular heterogeneity is one of the most important concerns in cancer, meaning that during the growth and proliferation of the tumor cell, the daughter cells exhibit differences at the molecular level, resulting in variations in tumor growth rate, invasion and metastasis patterns, drug sensitivity, and other aspects (DagogoJack and Shaw 2018, Sharma et al. 2019, Jiao et al. 2020, Vitale et al. 2021, Shi et al. 2023). These heterogeneities within the same type of cancer give rise to varying treatment responsesand overall prognosis among patients, posing significant challenges in cancer diagnosis and management (Abeshouse et al. 2015, Ateeq et al. 2016, Punt et al. 2017, Buikhuisen et al. 2020). Recent advances in genomics, proteomics, and molecular pathology have led to the discovery of candidate biomarkers that hold potential clinical value for cancer subtype classification, staging, and prognosis (McGuire et al. 2017, Audenet et al. 2018, Zhao et al. 2019, 2020). For example, numerous studies in recent years have demonstrated that molecular subtypes can be identified in most human cancers and that  \ndifferent subtypes are significantly correlated with different therapeutic responses and clinical outcomes (McConkey and Choi 2018, Torres and Grippo 2018, Bozic and Wu 2020, Turajlic et al. 2020, Wolf et al. 2022). The application of molecular profiling technologies creates opportunities for personalized medicine.
