Synthetic biomedical data generation in support of In Silico Clinical Trials
Living in the era of Big Data, one may advocate that the additional synthetic generation of data is redundant. However, to be able to truly say whether it is valid or not, one needs to focus more on the meaning and quality of data than on the quantity ...

Optimizing radiation therapy treatments by exploring tumour ecosystem dynamics in-silico [PDF]
In this contribution, we propose a system-level compartmental population dynamics model of tumour cells that interact with the patient (innate) immune system under the impact of radiation therapy (RT).

Bayesian Augmented Clinical Trials in TB Therapeutic Vaccination
We propose a Bayesian hierarchical method for combining in silico and in vivo data onto an augmented clinical trial with binary end points. The joint posterior distribution from the in silico experiment is treated as a prior, weighted by a measure of ...

In silico clinical trials: concepts and early adoptions
Abstract Innovations in information and communication technology infuse all branches of science, including life sciences. Nevertheless, healthcare is historically slow in adopting technological innovation, compared with other industrial sectors. In recent years, new approaches in modelling and simulation have started to provide important

Repurposing cancer drugs, batimastat and marimastat, to inhibit the activity of a group I metalloprotease from the venom of the Western Diamondback rattlesnake, Crotalus atrox [PDF]
Snakebite envenomation causes over 140,000 deaths every year predominantly in developing countries. As a result, it is one of the most lethal neglected tropical diseases.

In silico clinical trials for anti-aging therapies
Therapeutic strategies targeting the hallmarks of aging can be broadly grouped into four categories, namely systemic (blood) factors, metabolic manipulation (diet regimens and dietary restriction mimetics), suppression of cellular senescence (senolytics), and cellular reprogramming, which likely have common characteristics and mechanisms of action.

Identification of hepta-histidine as a candidate drug for Huntington's disease by in silico-in vitro- in vivo-integrated screens of chemical libraries. [PDF]
We identified drug seeds for treating Huntington's disease (HD) by combining in vitro single molecule fluorescence spectroscopy, in silico molecular docking simulations, and in vivo fly and mouse HD models to screen for inhibitors of abnormal ...
