tooluniverse-precision-medicine-stratification

name: tooluniverse-precision-medicine-stratification description: Comprehensive patient stratification for precision medicine by integrating genomic, clinical, and therapeutic data. Given a disease/condition, genomic data (germline variants, somatic mutations, expression), and optional clinical parameters, performs multi-phase analysis across 9 phases covering disease disambiguation, genetic risk assessment, disease-specific molecular stratification, pharmacogenomic profiling, comorbidity/DDI risk, pathway analysis, clinical evidence and guideline mapping, clinical trial matching, and integrated outcome prediction. Generates a quantitative Precision Medicine Risk Score (0-100) with risk tier assignment (Low/Intermediate/High/Very High), treatment algorithm (1st/2nd/3rd line), pharmacogenomic guidance, clinical trial matches, and monitoring plan. Use when clinicians ask about patient risk stratification, treatment selection, prognosis prediction, or personalized therapeutic strategy across cancer, metabolic, cardiovascular, neurological, or rare diseases.

Precision Medicine Patient Stratification

Transform patient genomic and clinical profiles into actionable risk stratification, treatment recommendations, and personalized therapeutic strategies. Integrates germline genetics, somatic alterations, pharmacogenomics, pathway biology, and clinical evidence to produce a quantitative risk score with tiered management recommendations.

KEY PRINCIPLES:

1. Report-first approach - Create report file FIRST, then populate progressively
2. Disease-specific logic - Cancer vs metabolic vs rare disease pipelines diverge at Phase 2
3. Multi-level integration - Germline + somatic + expression + clinical data layers
4. Evidence-graded - Every finding has an evidence tier (T1-T4)
5. Quantitative output - Precision Medicine Risk Score (0-100) with transparent components
6. Pharmacogenomic guidance - Drug selection AND dosing recommendations
7. Guideline-concordant - Reference NCCN, ACC/AHA, ADA, and other guidelines
8. Source-referenced - Every statement cites the tool/database source
9. Completeness checklist - Mandatory section showing data availability and analysis coverage
10. English-first queries - Always use English terms in tool calls. Respond in user's language

When to Use

Apply when user asks:

• "Stratify this breast cancer patient: ER+/HER2-, BRCA1 mutation, stage II"
• "What is the risk profile for this diabetes patient with HbA1c 8.5 and CYP2C19 poor metabolizer?"
• "NSCLC patient with EGFR L858R, stage IV, TMB 25 - treatment strategy?"
• "Predict prognosis and recommend treatment for this cardiovascular patient"
• "Patient has Marfan syndrome with FBN1 mutation - risk stratification"
• "Alzheimer's risk assessment: APOE e4/e4, family history positive"
• "Personalized treatment plan for type 2 diabetes with genetic risk factors"
• "Which therapy is best for this patient's molecular profile?"

Phase 1: Disease Disambiguation & Profile Standardization

Step 1.1: Resolve Disease to EFO ID

# Get disease EFO ID
result = tu.tools.OpenTargets_get_disease_id_description_by_name(diseaseName='breast cancer')
# -> {data: {search: {hits: [{id: 'EFO_0000305', name: 'breast carcinoma', description: '...'}]}}}
efo_id = result['data']['search']['hits'][0]['id']

Common Disease EFO IDs (for reference):

Step 1.2: Classify Disease Type

Based on disease name and EFO ID, classify into: CANCER, METABOLIC, CVD, NEUROLOGICAL, RARE, AUTOIMMUNE. This determines the Phase 3 routing.

Step 1.3: Parse Genomic Data

Parse each variant/gene into structured format:

"BRCA1 c.68_69delAG" -> {gene: "BRCA1", variant: "c.68_69delAG", type: "frameshift"}
"EGFR L858R" -> {gene: "EGFR", variant: "L858R", type: "missense"}
"CYP2C19 *2/*2" -> {gene: "CYP2C19", genotype: "*2/*2", metabolizer_status: "poor"}
"APOE e4/e4" -> {gene: "APOE", genotype: "e4/e4", risk_allele: "e4"}

Step 1.4: Resolve Gene IDs

# For each gene in profile
result = tu.tools.MyGene_query_genes(query='BRCA1')
# -> hits[0]: {_id: '672', symbol: 'BRCA1', ensembl: {gene: 'ENSG00000012048'}}
ensembl_id = result['hits'][0]['ensembl']['gene']
entrez_id = result['hits'][0]['_id']

Critical Gene IDs (pre-resolved):

Phase 2: Genetic Risk Assessment

Step 2.1: Germline Variant Pathogenicity

For each germline variant provided:

# Search ClinVar for variant pathogenicity
result = tu.tools.clinvar_search_variants(gene='BRCA1', significance='pathogenic', limit=50)
# Check if patient's specific variant is in ClinVar

# For rsID variants, get VEP annotation
result = tu.tools.EnsemblVEP_annotate_rsid(variant_id='rs80357906')
# Returns SIFT, PolyPhen predictions, consequence type

# For HGVS variants
result = tu.tools.EnsemblVEP_annotate_hgvs(hgvs_notation='ENST00000357654.9:c.5266dupC', species='homo_sapiens')

Pathogenicity Classification (ACMG-aligned):

Step 2.2: Gene-Disease Association Strength

# Get genetic evidence for gene-disease pair
result = tu.tools.OpenTargets_target_disease_evidence(
    ensemblId='ENSG00000012048',  # BRCA1
    efoId='EFO_0000305',         # breast cancer
    size=20
)
# Returns evidence items with scores

Step 2.3: GWAS-Based Polygenic Risk

# Search GWAS associations for disease
result = tu.tools.gwas_get_associations_for_trait(trait='breast cancer')
# Returns associated SNPs with effect sizes

# Search GWAS studies via OpenTargets
result = tu.tools.OpenTargets_search_gwas_studies_by_disease(
    diseaseIds=['EFO_0000305'], size=25
)

# For specific genes, check GWAS hits
result = tu.tools.GWAS_search_associations_by_gene(gene_name='BRCA1')

PRS Estimation (from available GWAS data):

Note: With user-provided variants only (not full genotype), estimate approximate PRS by counting known risk alleles and their effect sizes from GWAS catalog. Flag as "estimated - full genotyping recommended for precise PRS."

Step 2.4: Population Frequency

# Check variant frequency in gnomAD
result = tu.tools.gnomad_get_variant(variant_id='1-55505647-G-T')
# Returns allele frequency across populations

Step 2.5: Gene Constraint

# Gene intolerance to loss of function
result = tu.tools.gnomad_get_gene_constraints(gene_symbol='BRCA1')
# Returns pLI, LOEUF scores - high pLI/low LOEUF = haploinsufficiency

Genetic Risk Score Component (0-35 points):

Combine pathogenicity + gene-disease association + PRS:

• Pathogenic variant in disease gene: 25+ points
• Strong GWAS associations (multiple risk alleles): up to 35 points
• VUS in relevant gene: 10-15 points
• No known pathogenic variants but some risk alleles: 5-15 points
