Abstract
Predicting cancer cell line response to drug treatment using genomic data alone is challenging due to cancer's complexity. This study integrates heterogeneous data (biological networks, genomics, inhibitor profiling, gene-disease associations) into a unified graph structure using a novel graph reduction algorithm. This algorithm improves feature entropy while preserving valuable information. Graph-based prediction of drug efficacy showed higher accuracy (0.68) compared to matrix-based methods, highlighting the benefit of non-Euclidean data representation for machine learning in cancer pharmacotherapy.
