Onco Strat

Ranks drugs for a breast cancer patient from their tumour's DNA and RNA

Built by Anshiika Bisht, Shashidhar K and Jagriti

What it does

In triple-negative breast cancer, trying one drug after another costs time the patient may not have. Onco Strat takes a tumour's variant file and its RNA-seq counts, keeps the variants that matter, and checks which of those genes are also switched on. It matches the result against OncoKB and produces a PDF report of candidate drugs, ranked by the AMP/ASCO/CAP evidence tiers.

How it works

  1. Filters the VCF to protein-changing, high or moderate impact, somatic variants on canonical transcripts
  2. Keeps only genes that are both mutated and upregulated in the RNA-seq data
  3. Matches them against OncoKB and writes a patient report with drugs and evidence tiers
