Limitations & build flags

  • Read-only structured navigator
  • No clinical outcome benefit inferred
  • Trial presence does not imply success
  • Drug identity may require normalization
  • Terminated/withdrawn trials must remain visible

Important limitations

  • Shared-target cross-indication paths show mechanistic adjacency only — they do not establish clinical benefit or recommend treatment.
  • Disease→target associations are scoped to this hub’s Open Targets umbrella concept; subtype evidence may be represented on separate catalogue pages.
  • Lung cancer here uses the umbrella MONDO lung-cancer concept. NSCLC/SCLC subtype evidence is not collapsed into this hub and may appear separately.

Source catalogue associations
16,347

Open Targets associated-target catalogue count for this disease node — not clinically ranked, validated, or treatment-linked targets.

Measured from Open Targets on 2026-05-15

Imported evidence rows

Source evidence rows, not unique targets.

Explorer-eligible targets

Targets in the GBM evidence-graph view with default dashboard eligibility.

Targets with drug relationships

Distinct active GBM explorer-eligible targets with drug–target mechanism-of-action relationships (disease-scoped; not a global catalogue count).

Disease-linked drugs

Unique active drugs linked to this disease in the evidence graph.

Disease-drug evidence edges

Active disease–drug evidence edges (methodology detail).

Catalogue and row counts are research inventory signals. They do not mean every association is clinically relevant, validated, druggable, or treatment-linked.

Disease-aware regulatory approval

Regulator-backed indication status for Lung cancer. Trial phase is not approval.

No regulator-backed approval indication was resolved in Canti for the sampled drugs.

Currently indexed off-label and cross-indication drug evidence

Approval in another disease and a shared target or biomarker do not establish safety or clinical benefit in Lung cancer.
