4 of the top 50 atypical teratoid rhabdoid tumor targets have strong human genetic evidence but little drug evidence so far

Each dot is one target. Higher means stronger genetic evidence in people (inherited variants or tumour mutations, whichever is stronger). Further right means more evidence from drugs already in trials or approved.

All 50 targets, by type of evidence

Ranked by overall score for atypical teratoid rhabdoid tumor on the Open Targets Platform. Darker cells mean stronger evidence of that type.

Peds RMTLmarks the 3 of these targets on the FDA's Pediatric Relevant Molecular Target List: a drug against one of them can be required to be studied in children under the RACE for Children Act.
