SMILESGNN: Interpretable Clinical Toxicity Prediction via SMILES-Graph Cross-Attention Fusion

SMILESGNN is a multimodal architecture that fuses a SMILES Transformer encoder with a GATv2 graph encoder through cross‑attention, enabling interpretable clinical toxicity predictions. The model retains an explicit graph branch, allowing GNNExplainer to identify substructures linked to toxicity. On the ClinTox dataset it achieves an AUC‑ROC of 0.987 and F1 of 0.906 with only 0.4 M parameters, while on Tox21 it attains a mean AUC‑ROC of 0.750, comparable to strong single‑modality baselines.

Predicting Therapeutic Outcome via Aligning Patient-Specific Knowledge Graph and Gene-Level Perturbation Representations

arXiv:2607. 04557v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Accurate prediction of patient-specific therapeutic response from pre-treatment transcriptomes is hindered by the scarcity of matched clinical response labels and post-treatment molecular profiles.

Predicting Therapeutic Outcome via Aligning Patient-Specific Knowledge Graph and Gene-Level Perturbation Representations

Accurate prediction of patient-specific therapeutic response from pre-treatment transcriptomes is hindered by the scarcity of matched clinical response labels and post-treatment molecular profiles. Preclinical transfer-learning models can simulate drug-induced expression changes but are often hard to interpret and unstable, whereas knowledge-graph methods provide mechanistic context yet remain static and fail to capture drug-induced transcriptomic perturbation dynamics.

An Additive MLP-GNN Framework for Characterizing Chemical and Structural Contributions to Aqueous Solubility

arXiv:2607. 02212v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Aqueous solubility is a key property in early-stage drug discovery, but most predictive models merge physicochemical descriptors and molecular graph information into a single representation, obscuring whether a prediction is driven by global chemistry, molecular structure, or both.

VINCENT: Validated Interaction Network for Cross-drug Explanation of Therapeutics

VINCENT is a post‑training framework that provides validated, chemically coherent explanations for drug synergy predictions by extracting atom‑pair evidence from attention and gradient signals, grouping them into motifs, and refining these motifs through repeated local perturbations. On a literature‑annotated subset of 25 drug pairs, VINCENT achieves a mean motif recall of 0.826, outperforming baselines (0.49–0.66). Across 71 test pairs, its validated interaction scores yield a TP/TN separation of 3.36, indicating more accurate recovery of literature‑supported molecular regions and better alignment with predictor behavior.
