摘要

Adverse Drug Reactions (ADRs) pose significant challenges in clinical practice, particularly in oncology, where treatment regimens are complex and patient responses are highly variable. Researchers have developed various statistical based, neural network based and graph-based algorithms for biomedical tasks. Existing neural network-based methods for ADR prediction and knowledge discovery suffer from several limitations: they often treat all neighbors equally in Graph Neural Network (GNN) models, and fail to capture complex, intersentential, high granular, indirect information from neighboring nodes. Additionally, these models do not capture causal dependencies, a crucial factor in the biomedical domain. To address these limitations, we propose the Causality and Proximity-based Relational Multihead Attention Model (CPRMAM). This model leverages a knowledge graph representing ADR-related case studies of cancer patients, extracting and concatenating node features to obtain comprehensive feature representations and propose a novel aggregation function based on causal proximity vector.
