The search for chemical hit material is a lengthy and increasingly expensive drug discovery process. To improve it, ligand-based quantitative structure-activity relationship models have been broadly applied to optimize primary and secondary compound properties. Although these models can be deployed as early as the stage of molecule design, they have a limited applicability domain─if the structures of interest differ substantially from the chemical space on which the model was trained, a reliable prediction will not be possible.

Methods: We searched 13 databases for randomized controlled trials. Articles were included if they compared at least two strategies.
Motivation: Subtyping cancer is key to an improved and more personalized prognosis/treatment. The increasing availability of tumor related molecular data provides the opportunity to identify molecular subtypes in a data-driven way. Molecular subtypes are defined as groups of samples that have a similar molecular mechanism at the origin of the carcinogenesis.
