abstract: Open Cancer TherApeutic Discovery (OCTAD) package implies sRGES approach
  for the drug discovery. The essential idea is to identify drugs that reverse the
  gene expression signature of a disease by tamping down over-expressed genes and
  stimulating weakly expressed ones. The following package contains all required precomputed
  data for whole OCTAD pipeline computation.
