Identification of the most appropriate pharmacotherapy for each patient based on genomic alterations is a major challenge in personalized oncology. PANACEA is a collection of personalized anti-cancer drug prioritization approaches utilizing network methods. The methods utilize personalized "driverness" scores from 'driveR' to rank drugs, mapping these onto a protein-protein interaction network (PIN). The "distance-based" method scores each drug based on these scores and distances between drugs and genes to rank given drugs. The "RWR" method propagates these scores via a random-walk with restart framework to rank the drugs.
