# PharmacotherapyDB: the Open Catalog of Drug Therapies for Disease
PharmacotherapyDB is a catalog of medical indications between small molecule compounds and complex human diseases. We created the resource as part of our network-based drug repurposing project. However, PharmacotherapyDB is designed to be broadly applicable as a gold standard of drug indications for computational approaches. The catalog adheres to pathophysiological principals first. Therefore, the catalog includes indications with a poor risk–benefit ratio that are rarely used in the modern clinic.
PharmacotherapyDB differentiates between disease-modifying and symptomatic treatments. Each indication has been reviewed by multiple physicians. We use standardized vocabularies (the [Disease Ontology](http://disease-ontology.org/) and [DrugBank](http://www.drugbank.ca/)) to facilitate data integration.
Indications were classified by physician curators into three categories:
+ `DM` -- disease modifying
+ `SYM` -- symptomatic
+ `NOT` -- non-indicationThis **initial release** contains 97 diseases and 601 drugs. Between these drug–disease pairs, there are 755 disease-modifying therapies, 390 symptomatic therapies, and 243 non-indications. Read more about the initial release [on Thinklab](http://doi.org/10.15363/thinklab.d182). The catalog data is available in [`catalog`](catalog) and on [figshare](https://doi.org/10.6084/m9.figshare.3103054).
## Data Integration
We [combined four resources](https://doi.org/10.15363/thinklab.d21#21) to create a high-confidence set of indications. See the `data` directory for merged datasets combining the following resources.
+ **LabeledIn**: See [`labeledin`](labeledin), [Thinklab](https://doi.org/10.15363/thinklab.d46), and [this notebook](http://git.dhimmel.com/indications/labeledin/) for parsing the [data](http://ftp.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pub/lu/LabeledIn/) from:
> Khare R, Li J, Lu Z (2014) **LabeledIn: Cataloging labeled indications for human drugs**. *Journal of Biomedical Informatics* DOI: [10.1016/j.jbi.2014.08.004](https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jbi.2014.08.004)

+ **MEDI**: See [`medi`](medi) and [this Thinklab discussion](https://doi.org/10.15363/thinklab.d31) for parsing the [data](http://knowledgemap.mc.vanderbilt.edu/research/content/MEDI) from:
> Wei WQ, Cronin RM, Xu H, Lasko TA, Bastarache L, Denny JC (2013) **Development and evaluation of an ensemble resource linking medications to their indications.** *Journal of the American Medical Informatics Association* DOI: [10.1136/amiajnl-2012-001431](https://doi.org/10.1136/amiajnl-2012-001431)
Also see the [analysis notebook](http://git.dhimmel.com/indications/medi/) for visualization.
+ **EHRLink**: See [`ehrlink`](ehrlink) and [this Thinklab discussion](https://dx.doi.org/10.15363/thinklab.d62) for parsing data from ehrlink:
> McCoy AB et al. (2012) **Development and evaluation of a crowdsourcing methodology for knowledge base construction: identifying relationships between clinical problems and medications** *Journal of the American Medical Informatics Association* DOI: [10.1136/amiajnl-2012-000852](https://doi.org/10.1136/amiajnl-2012-000852)
+ **PREDICT**: See [`msb-predict`](msb-predict) for parsing data from PREDICT:
> Gottlieb A, Stein GY, Ruppin E, Sharan R (2011) **PREDICT: a method for inferring novel drug indications with application to personalized medicine.** *Molecular Systems Biology*. DOI: [10.1038/msb.2011.26](https://doi.org/10.1038/msb.2011.26)
+ **SIDER** is not directly included here but may be of interest. SIDER 4 has been parsed in a [seperate respository](https://github.com/dhimmel/SIDER4). SIDER 2 has been parsed in a [seperate respository](https://github.com/dhimmel/SIDER2) and corresponding [web tutorial](http://git.dhimmel.com/SIDER2/).
## Curation
Three [physicians curated](https://doi.org/10.15363/thinklab.d95) the catalog to classify indications according to the three categories (`DM`, `SYM`, `NOT`). See [`curation`](curation) for this analysis.
