Evidence exists to add to reference set (Gene Sheets). |
Criteria: |
Either: |
Drug directly targets and inhibits the gene
OR
Drug indirectly targets the gene by inhibiting downstream pathway members
AND
There is evidence that alterations in the gene sensitize cells to drugs inhibiting the indirect target
|
2 |
Gene name or its alias is mentioned with the drug or its synonym, but evidence is not sufficient to add to reference set. |
Categories |
High relevance: |
Indirectly targets the gene but there is no level of evidence for its use in tumors with alterations in the gene
Partial response
Associated with resistance
Effective only in combination
|
Low relevance: |
Mutation negative (patients negative for mutations in a gene were treated with a drug)
Opposite association (text suggests that the gene target affects the drug, rather than vice versa)
Discusses an isoform or artificial version of the gene
Derivative of the drug is being discussed (not actual drug indicated in evaluation)
Association unclear
Drug targets molecule upstream of original target (not likely to be effective)
No effect
|
No relevance: |
Not a drug/not used as a drug
No relationship/effect untested
Drug is used as a carcinogen/would never be used to treat cancer
Opposite effect (the drug results in increased activity of the target gene)
Not classified:
