From a network medicine perspective, diseases are caused by perturbations in the dynamics of multiple interacting genes a disease module. A drug that is a suitable candidate for re-purposing, should affect perturbed disease modules other than the one for which it was designed. In other words, it must act on various disease modules. A systematic analysis of re purposing suitability requires deep...
