About This Project

Accelerating drug repurposing evidence validation with AI — from prediction to evidence at a glance.

About the Developer

This platform is developed and operated by 藥提醒科技有限公司 (yao.care, company registration number 83620786, 12F, No. 220, Sec. 2, Taiwan Blvd., West Dist., Taichung City, Taiwan).

SgTxGNN is the Singapore site of the company's "TxGNN Drug Repurposing" product line. The same system is deployed across 30 countries and regions, each named {CC}TxGNN (JpTxGNN, UsTxGNN, DETxGNN, and so on) at {cc}txgnn.yao.care. Product overview: https://www.yao.care/medical/txgnn/.

The TxGNN model itself was developed by the Zitnik Lab at Harvard Medical School and published in Nature Medicine. This platform is the production system 藥提醒科技有限公司 built on top of that model, covering national drug-registration data integration, dual knowledge-graph and deep-learning prediction, PubMed / ClinicalTrials evidence grading, and SMART on FHIR electronic health record integration.


Project Background

SgTxGNN is a drug repurposing research platform based on Harvard's TxGNN model published in Nature Medicine. Unlike other prediction tools, this platform not only provides AI prediction scores but also integrates clinical evidence from ClinicalTrials.gov, PubMed, and other sources, enabling researchers to quickly assess prediction credibility.

Academic Foundation

This project's AI prediction model is based on:

Huang, K., et al. (2023). A foundation model for clinician-centered drug repurposing. Nature Medicine. DOI: 10.1038/s41591-023-02233-x


What is Drug Repurposing?

Drug Repurposing is discovering new therapeutic uses for existing drugs. Compared to developing new drugs (10-15 years, $1-2 billion), drug repurposing takes only 3-5 years and $100-300 million, with existing human safety data and lower failure risk.

Comparison New Drug Development Drug Repurposing
Development Time 10-15 years 3-5 years
Development Cost $1-2 billion $100-300 million
Safety Data Must establish new Existing human data
Failure Risk Very high (>90%) Lower
The advantage of drug repurposing: drug safety, pharmacokinetics, and manufacturing processes are already validated, allowing direct entry into clinical efficacy trials.

What is TxGNN?

TxGNN is a deep learning model developed by Harvard Medical School's Zitnik Lab team, published in Nature Medicine. It is the first foundation model designed for clinician-centered drug repurposing.

"TxGNN integrates a knowledge graph of 17,080 biomedical entities, using graph neural networks to learn complex relationships between nodes and predict drug efficacy for rare diseases." — Huang et al., Nature Medicine (2023)

Technical Features

  1. Knowledge Graph: Integrates 17,080 nodes including drugs, diseases, genes, and proteins
  2. Graph Neural Network: Learns complex relationships between nodes
  3. Prediction Capability: Predicts which diseases a drug might be effective for

Data Sources

This platform integrates multiple authoritative public data sources including AI predictions, clinical trials, academic literature, drug information, Singapore market information, and drug interaction data.
