Drug Repositioning with GraphSAGE and Clustering Constraints Based on Drug and Disease Networks
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The understanding of therapeutic properties is important in drug repositioning and drug discovery. However, chemical or clinical trials are expensive and inefficient to characterize the therapeutic properties of drugs. Recently, artificial intelligence (AI)-assisted algorithms have received extensive attention for discovering the potential therapeutic properties of drugs and speeding up drug development. In this study, we propose a new method based on GraphSAGE and clustering constraints (DRGCC) to investigate the potential therapeutic properties of drugs for drug repositioning. First, the drug structure features and disease symptom features are extracted. Second, the drug–drug interaction network and disease similarity network are constructed according to the drug–gene and disease–gene relationships. Matrix factorization is adopted to extract the clustering features of networks. Then, all the features are fed to the GraphSAGE to predict new associations between existing drugs and diseases. Benchmark comparisons on two different datasets show that our method has reliable predictive performance and outperforms other six competing. We have also conducted case studies on existing drugs and diseases and aimed to predict drugs that may be effective for the novel coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). Among the predicted anti-COVID-19 drug candidates, some drugs are being clinically studied by pharmacologists, and their binding sites to COVID-19-related protein receptors have been found via the molecular docking technology.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
