• Abstract: In this study, we propose an innovative methodology for predicting Cancer Drug Response (CDR) through the integration of the scGPT foundation model within the DeepCDR model. Our approach utilizes scGPT to generate embeddings from gene expression data, which are then used as gene expression input data for DeepCDR. The experimental findings demonstrate the efficacy of this scGPT-based method in outperforming previous related works, including the original DeepCDR model and the scFoundation-based model. This study highlights the potential of scGPT embeddings to enhance the accuracy of CDR predictions and offers a promising alternative to existing approaches.

  In Canada, prostate cancer is the most common form of cancer in men and accounted for 20% of new cancer cases for this demographic in 2022.

In this study, we explore the efficacy of latent diffusion for generating realistic prostate DWI data through the introduction of an anatomic-conditional controlled latent diffusion strategy.
