ERWR: Predicting Efficacious Drug Combinations in Cancer Based on Random Walk with Restart

Show abstract
(1) BackgroundCompared with monotherapy, efficacious drug combinations can increase the therapeutic effect, decrease drug resistance of experimental subjects and the side effects of drugs. Therefore, efficacious drug combinations are widely used in the treatment of complex diseases, such as various cancers. However, compared with the mathematical model and computational method, experimental screening efficacious drug combinations is time-consuming, costly, laborious, and inefficient; (2) Methodswe predicted efficacious drug combinations in cancer based on random walk with restart (RWRDC). An efficacious score can be obtained between any two individual drugs by RWRDC; (3) ResultsAs a result, we analyzed the rationality of the efficacious score first. Besides, compared with the other methods by leave-one-out cross-validation, all the Area Under Receiver Operating Characteristic Curves (AUROCs) of RWRDC were higher for data sets of breast cancer, colorectal cancer, and lung cancer. Moreover, the case study of breast cancer showed that RWRDC could discover potential efficacious drug combinations; (4) ConclusionsThese results suggest that RWRDC is a novel way to discover efficacious drug combinations in cancer, which provides new prospects for cancer treatment. Furthermore, RWRDC is a semi-supervised learning framework that can be used to predict combinations of drugs for other complex diseases.

"Similar papers" are the closest papers from that journal in the model's embedding space. They show what the match is built on, but the ranking comes mostly from a classifier over the whole training set, not from these examples alone.
