Biomarker-driven drug repurposing on biologically similar cancers with DNA-repair deficiencies.

Similar molecular and genetic aberrations among diseases can lead to the discovery of jointly important treatment options across biologically similar diseases. Oncologists closely looked at several hormone-dependent cancers and identified remarkable pathological and molecular similarities in their DNA repair pathway abnormalities. Although deficiencies in Homologous Recombination (HR) pathway plays a significant role towards cancer progression, there could be other DNA-repair pathway deficiencies that requires careful investigation.

Integration of Multimodal Data from Disparate Sources for Identifying Disease Subtypes.

Studies over the past decade have generated a wealth of molecular data that can be leveraged to better understand cancer risk, progression, and outcomes. However, understanding the progression risk and differentiating long- and short-term survivors cannot be achieved by analyzing data from a single modality due to the heterogeneity of disease. Using a scientifically developed and tested deep-learning approach that leverages aggregate information collected from multiple repositories with multiple modalities (e.
