Paper: Objective assessment of cancer genes for drug discovery
There's a great paper just published in NRDD on the analysis of potential drug targets using an objective, evidence-based approach, it makes extensive use of ChEMBL data, alongside specific cancer-related datasets, pathway and interaction data and so forth. There is also some good discussion of drug-repurposing informatics approaches.
A link to the pdf of the paper is here.
