Abstract: Intratumoral cellular heterogeneity necessitates multi-targeting therapies for improved clinical benefits in patients with advanced malignancies. However, systematic identification of patient-specific treatments that selectively co-inhibit cancerous cell populations poses a combinatorial challenge, since the number of possible drug-dose combinations vastly exceeds what could be tested in scarce patient cells. Here, we developed scTherapy, a machine learning model that leverages single-cell transcriptomic profiles to prioritize multi-targeting treatment options for individual patients with hematological cancers or solid tumors.
