  • Publication number: 20190214136
    Abstract: In some examples, the techniques and systems described herein relate to generating a patient-specific drug-response prediction. For example, the technique may involve generating a drug-response expression profile corresponding to an efficacious therapeutic effect of a drug based on analysis of gene-expression and drug-response data stored in a database for one or more cell lines. The technique may also involve comparing a gene-expression profile of a patient tumor to the drug-response expression profile in order to generate a report of a patient-specific drug-response prediction. The report of the patient-specific drug-response prediction may identify one or more drugs likely to have an efficacious therapeutic effect on the patient tumor.
