Deep Learning for Predicting Effect of Neoadjuvant Therapies in Non-Small Cell Lung Carcinomas With Histologic Images.

Neoadjuvant therapies are used for locally advanced non-small cell lung carcinomas, whereby pathologists histologically evaluate the effect using resected specimens. Major pathological response (MPR) has recently been used for treatment evaluation and as an economical survival surrogate; however, interobserver variability and poor reproducibility are often noted. The aim of this study was to devel...

MATH: A Deep Learning Approach in QSAR for Estrogen Receptor Alpha Inhibitors.

Breast cancer ranks as the second leading cause of death among women, but early screening and self-awareness can help prevent it. Hormone therapy drugs that target estrogen levels offer potential treatments. However, conventional drug discovery entails extensive, costly processes. This study presents a framework for analyzing the quantitative structure-activity relationship (QSAR) of estrogen rece...
