The Cancer Gene Index in BioXM – Lymphoma Biomarker use case.

One of the NCI Thesaurus Role Codes used in the CGI identifies potential “biomarkers” published by researchers. These are suspect biomarkers that require further research, analysis, review and approval. BioXM knowledge relationship map for all CGI lymphoma cancer biomarker genes and leflunomide, a chemical compound related to the SPN lymphoma biomarker gene. The map is extended to show relationships between the lymphoma biomarker gene/leflunomide gene compound relationship and clinical trial information for leflunomide found in NCI’s Physicians Data Query (PDQ) database.
