Abstract: The present invention provides systems, methods and software for improving robustness of transcriptomic data analysis, the method including receiving control cell transcriptomic data (C) and cell transcriptomic data (S) under study for a gene, calculating a fold change ratio (fc) for the gene, repeating these steps for a plurality of genes, grouping co-expressed genes into modules, estimating gene importance factors based on a network topology, mapped from a plurality of the modules and obtaining a insilico Pathway Activation Network Decomposition Analysis (iPANDA) value, wherein the iPANDA value has a Pearson coefficient greater than a Pearson coefficient associated with another platform for manipulating the same data.

Abstract: The present invention provides systems, methods and software predicting a clinical outcome of a patient having breast cancer, the method including the steps of providing a drug score database (DSD) based on pathway activation strengths (PASs) for a plurality of biological pathways associated with the drug in the treatment of the disorder and comparing the pathway activation strengths of the plurality of biological pathways of the patient with the drug score database to provide a predictive indication if the patient is a responder or non-responder to the drug; and repeating these steps for a plurality of drugs thereby predicting a clinical outcome to the plurality of drugs of the patient to the breast cancer.
