Abstract
Patient-derived gene expression signatures induced by cancer treatment, obtained from paired pre- and post-treatment clinical transcriptomes, can help reveal drug mechanisms of action (MOAs) in cancer patients and understand the molecular response mechanism of tumor sensitivity or resistance. Their integration and reuse may bring new insights. Paired pre- and post-treatment clinical transcriptomic data are rapidly accumulating. However, a lack of systematic collection makes data access, integration, and reuse challenging. We therefore present the Cancer Drug-induced gene expression Signature DataBase (CDS-DB). CDS-DB has collected 78 patient-derived, paired pre- and post-treatment transcriptomic source datasets with uniformly reprocessed expression profiles and manually curated metadata such as drug administration dosage, sampling time and location,and intrinsic drug response status. From these source datasets, 2012 patient-level gene perturbation signatures were obtained, covering 85 therapeutic regimens, 39 cancer subtypesand 3628 patient samples. Besides data browsing, downloadand search, CDS-DB also supports single signature analysis (including differential gene expression, functional enrichment, tumor microenvironmentand correlation analyses), signature comparative analysisand signature connectivity analysis. This provides insights into drug MOA and its heterogeneity in patients, drug resistance mechanisms, drug repositioningand drug (combination) discovery, etc. CDS-DB is available at http://cdsdb.ncpsb.org.cn/.
