Prediction of cancer cell line-specific synergistic drug combinations based on multi-omics data.

ABSTRACT: Compared to single-drug therapy, combination therapy involves the use of two or more drugs to reduce drug dosage, decrease drug toxicity, and improve treatment efficacy. We developed an extreme gradient boosting (XGBoost)-based drug-drug cell line prediction model (XDDC) to predict synergistic drug combinations. XDDC was based on XGBoost and used one of the largest drug combination datasets, NCI-ALMANAC. In XDDC, drug chemical structures, adverse drug reactions, and target information were selected as drug features; gene expression, methylation, mutations, copy number variations, and RNA interference data were used as cell line features; and pathway information was incorporated to link drug features and cell line features. XDDC improved the interpretability of drug combination features and
