Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) affects an estimated global population of around 3 million individuals. IPF is a medical condition with unknown cause characterized by the formation scar tissue in lungs, leading to progressive respiratory disease. Currently, there are only two FDA-approved small molecule drugs specifically for treatment and this has created demand rapid development treatment. Moreover, denovo drug time cost-intensive less than 10% success rate. Drug repurposing currently most feasible option rapidly making market rare sporadic Normally, begins screening using computational tools, which results low hit Here, integrated machine learning-based strategy developed significantly reduce false positive outcomes introducing predock machine-learning-based predictions followed literature GSEA-assisted validation pathway prediction. The deployed 1480 clinical trial screen them against "TGFB1", "TGFB2", "PDGFR-a", "SMAD-2/3", "FGF-2", more proteins resulting 247 total 27 potentially repurposable drugs. GSEA suggested that 72 (29.14%) have been tried IPF, 13 (5.2%) already used lung fibrosis, 20 (8%) tested other fibrotic conditions such as cystic renal fibrosis. Pathway prediction remaining 142 was carried out 118 distinct pathways. Furthermore, analysis revealed 29 pathways were directly or indirectly involved 11 involved. 15 potential combinations showing strong synergistic effect IPF. reported here will be useful developing treating related conditions.

Abstract Upon a diagnosis, the clinical team faces two main questions: what treatment, and at dose? Clinical trials' results provide basis for guidance support official protocols that clinicians use to base their decisions. However, individuals do not consistently demonstrate reported response from relevant trials. The decision complexity increases with combination treatments where drugs administered together can interact each other, which is often case. Additionally, individual's treatment varies changes in condition. In practice, drug dose selection depend significantly on medical protocol team's experience. As such, are inherently varied suboptimal. Big data Artificial Intelligence (AI) approaches have emerged as excellent decision-making tools, but multiple challenges limit application.
