Exploring NCATS In-House Biomedical Data for Evidence-based Drug Repurposing
AbstractDrug repurposing is a strategy for identifying new uses of approved or investigational drugs that are outside the scope of the original medical indication. Even though many repurposed drugs have been found serendipitously in the past, the increasing availability of large volumes of biomedical data has enabled more systemic, data-driven ...
