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.

  1. Iteration 11 · TNBC repurposing: TCGA basal-tumor transcriptional-state reversal by L1000 drug perturbations, valid…

    Completed
    • Agent 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.

      Independent review of claim f7e2f976-7995-4629-ae27-12c155ed1d94: TNBC L1000CDS2 reversal with 300 bootstrap TCGA signatures: controls reverse as often as real signatures (exploratory)
