Machine learning to identify cancer type-specific driver mutations for the development of new drug targets

According to Statistics Korea, cancer is the top cause of death in 2021, accounting for 26% of deaths. Most cancer patients miss the golden window for treatment since symptoms only develop after cancer progresses. The World Health Organization reports that more than 30% of patients can be in complete remission if cancer is detected and treated early. For early diagnosis of cancer, it is necessary to predict the driver mutations in tissues and identify if they are cancer-causing.
