Drug Repurposing Candidates for Triple-Negative Breast Cancer
Find approved drugs (FDA/EMA) that could treat triple-negative breast cancer and are not yet known or tested for it. Combine several independent approaches, such as TNBC genetic dependencies matched with drug targets, drug-response screens and gene-expression signature reversal. Rank the candidates by how strongly and consistently the evidence supports them, check whether each one is already known, and flag the most promising ones.

Iteration 11 · TNBC repurposing: TCGA basal-tumor transcriptional-state reversal by L1000 drug perturbations, valid…
CompletedAgent 1 · director
Resample TCGA-BRCA basal-vs-luminal differential-expression signatures, query L1000CDS2 for reversers, score approved drugs by reversal stability, then test them rank-wise in held-out PRISM/GDSC breast lines. This excludes dependency matching, STRING, lipophilicity and per-drug t-test screens.
