  • Run description: We filtered the PubMed documents through the detection of certain keywords in the content so that we only work with those that are related to cancer treatment. The extra abstracts were assumed to be all related to the task at hand, hence, no filtering process was done for this set. A search index was built based on each document's title, abstract, MeSH keywords (primary and secondary topics), keywords, and chemicals. We used the given disease's original term, synonyms, and parent concepts along with the specified genetic information and its synonym to retrieve the top 1,500 presumably relevant documents. From this initial set of documents, we performed an ad-hoc search to determine which ones have mentioned the co-morbidities listed in the others field of the patient's case. The initial set of documents were then re-ranked based on a relevance score that placed varying weights on the initial retrieval score, appearance of terms like 'treat', 'therapy', 'drug', etc. in the content, mention of the other diseases specified, and gender match. This run did not use the age of the patients.

In the first retrieval, we derived the top 1,500 results. From this, we did two additional ad-hoc searches for the other conditions and the patient's demographic profile. We performed re-ranking on the initial results to take the later criteria into account.

  • Run description: We built the index based on the trials' title, brief summary, detailed description, condition, and MeSH terms. The initial query is comprised of the patient's disease, its synonyms, and parent concepts. The synonyms and parent concepts were derived from relationships in UMLS (MRREL table). Using this initial query, the top 1,500 presumably relevant documents are retrieved using the BM25 algorithm as implemented in GraphLab. We performed multiple adhoc searches on the initial set of relevant documents using the genetic information and its synonyms along with the comorbidities specified in the others field and their respective synonyms. The initial retrieved documents were re-ranked based on a linear combination of their scores in the initial search and the adhoc searches that followed. We set the coefficients/weights for each retrieval score (initial, gene, others, demographic) to reflect the relevance judgment mechanism for the precision medicine track.

  • Run description: We filtered out non-cancer related trials from the given document pool based on the presence of certain keywords/terms in the title and conditions specified in the trial. Metamap was used to extract biomedical concepts and their corresponding unique identifiers (CUIs) from the title, condition, and criteria. We defined a set of semantic types that are most likely related to cancer treatment and used it to filter out the biomedical concepts derived in the previous step. The criteria were parsed into their respective inclusion and exclusion parts. The Metamap tool can also detect negation, hence all negated concepts were automatically put in the exclusion part. The query preprocessing was done by first identifying the corresponding concept identifiers (CUIs) of the patient's disease and extracting its parent and child concepts in UMLS (MRREL table). We retrieved all trials where the CUIs of the disease, its synonyms, parents, and child concepts appeared in the concepts detected from the title. From this initial set of relevant documents, we performed an ad-hoc search using the genetic information and its synonyms on the title, brief summary, detailed description, and inclusion criteria. Another ad-hoc search was performed using the CUIs of the diseases specified in the others field and their respective synonyms. We automatically remove documents where the condition in the others field is part of the exclusion criteria. We also check for the matching of the age and gender in the given case and a retrieved trial. We use a rubric scoring mechanism to account for the matching of conditions, genetic information, inclusion criteria, and demographic profile. The scoring mechanism places more weight on the matching of disease (cancer type) and genetic information. Based on this, the initial documents are re-ranked and the top 1000 documents are included in the submission.

The expanded query was used as a new query for the Clinical Trials dataset. 1. A LDA model with 800 topics was trained based on the 2016 PMC snapshot (Dec. 4) - ftp://ftp.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pub/pmc. Before training, all full-text documents in the 2016 PMC snapshot (Dec. 4) were represented by only MeSH words that are included in the "MH" field (MESH) in the 2017 Mesh descriptor file (https://www.nlm.nih.gov/mesh/download_mesh.html). We considered only MeSH terms, which might be Unigram or Multi-gram words. If a MeSH includes more than one word, each word included in the MeSH term was not considered. Only a complete MeSH term described in the MeSH was considered as a term. Meanwhile, if a MeSH is made of a word, the word was regarded as a MeSH term. The Gensim module (Python-based, https://radimrehurek.com/gensim/) was used to generate a LDA model. 2. The 2016 CDS track dataset (http://www.trec-cds.org/2016.html) was indexed by Terrier in order to get a top 1 retrieved document for 2017 PM track query. 30 top 1 full-text documents for 30 queries of the PM Track were used to predict the first LDA topic for each top 1 document, which has the largest topic probability representing the document. The first topic word for the predicted topic was added to the original query. E.g. QE 1: "Liposarcoma CDK4 Amplification 38-year-old male GERD recurrence"(recurrence was added).

The LDA model and 30 top 1 documents were used in the same way of the UWMSOIS1. The predicted topic probability for each documents was weighted by the normalized form of inverse topic probability: tp (Topic Probabilty for the top 1 document) * Norm (Inverted Topic Probability), where Norm (Inverted Topic Probability) = (ITP(i) of the document -min(ITPs)) / (max(ITPs)-min(ITPs)), ITP(i) of the document = inverse value of the sum of the topic i probability values for all documents in the collection, when the topic i has the biggest probability value in representing the document. Max(ITPs) means the maximum value of all ITPs for all topics. This is a similar concept of TF* normalization (IDF).

This is a similar concept of TF* (ICF, CF: the word frequency in the collection). The log base is 10. One difference between TP and CF might be that the maximum value of TP cannot exceed 1, so the impact of relatively big TP values in a few documents might not be that critical(that affect the bias by a few documents) as much as the large number of term frequency in a few documents can does.
