A novel method called HyperSynergy is proposed to address the drug synergy prediction problem in data-poor cell lines. It utilizes a prior-guided Hypernetwork architecture to generate cell line-dependent parameters for drug synergy prediction. Experimental results demonstrate that HyperSynergy outperforms other methods not only on data-poor cell lines but also on data-rich cell lines.
Predicting drug synergy is critical to tailoring feasible drug combination treatment regimens for cancer patients. However, most of the existing computational methods only focus on data-rich cell lines, and hardly work on data-poor cell lines. To this end, here we proposed a novel few-shot drug synergy prediction method (called HyperSynergy) for data-poor cell lines by designing a prior-guided Hypernetwork architecture, in which the meta-generative network based on the task embedding of each cell line generates cell line dependent parameters for the drug synergy prediction network. In HyperSynergy model, we designed a deep Bayesian variational inference model to infer the prior distribution over the task embedding to quickly update the task embedding with a few labeled drug synergy samples, and presented a three-stage learning strategy to train HyperSynergy for quickly updating the prior distribution by a few labeled drug synergy samples of each data-poor cell line. Moreover, we proved theoretically that HyperSynergy aims to maximize the lower bound of log-likelihood of the marginal distribution over each data-poor cell line. The experimental results show that our HyperSynergy outperforms other state-of-the-art methods not only on data-poor cell lines with a few samples (e.g., 10, 5, 0), but also on data-rich cell lines.
