Abstract Personalized cancer treatments using synergistic combinations of drugs is attractive but proves to be highly challenging. The combinatorial nature of such problems results in an enormous parameter space that cannot be resolved by empirical research, i.e. testing all combinations for all molecularly defined tumors. In addition, effective drug synergy is hard to predict. Here we present an approach to map data of drug-response encyclopedias and represent these as a drug atlas. This atlas consists of a framework of chemotherapeutic responses that represents a drug vulnerability landscape of cancer. Based on data from the literature we found that many synergistic drug combinations show distinct inter therapy responses and drug sensitivities. We confirmed this by performing a drug combination screen against glioblastoma where we used 270 combination experiments. From the identified dual therapies we were able to predict and validate a triple drug synergy which was validated in vivo. This new and generalizable strategy opens the door to unforeseen personalized multidrug combination approaches.

Outbreaks of Ebola ebolavirus (EBOV) have been associated with high morbidity and mortality. Milestones have been reached recently in the management of EBOV disease (EVD) with licensure of an EBOV vaccine and two monoclonal antibody therapies. However, neither vaccines nor therapies are available for other disease-causing filoviruses. In preparation for such outbreaks, and for more facile and cost-effective management of EVD, we seek a cocktail containing orally available and room temperature stable drugs with strong activity against multiple filoviruses. We previously showed that (bepridil + sertraline) and (sertraline + toremifene) synergistically suppress EBOV in cell cultures. Here we describe steps towards testing these combinations in a mouse model of EVD. We identified a vehicle suitable for oral delivery of the component drugs and determined that, thus formulated the drugs are equally active against EBOV as preparations in DMSO, and they maintain activity upon storage in solution for up to seven days. Pharmacokinetic (PK) studies indicated that the drugs in the oral delivery vehicle are well tolerated in mice at the highest doses tested. Collectively the data support advancement of these combinations to tests for synergy in a mouse model of EVD. Moreover, mathematical modeling based on human oral PK projects that the combinations would be more active in humans than their component single drugs.
