Trastuzumab Emtansine: Known uses and market status in Australia

Summary

The TxGNN deep-learning model (score ≥ 0.99) produced candidate indications for Trastuzumab Emtansine. Every candidate that can be traced to a source is already a known use, so there is currently no new predicted indication. The four known uses listed below belong to the same disease category as an approved indication.
