Paper
KICDB: A Causality-Oriented Multi-Omics Database for Kinase Inhibitor-Induced Cardiotoxicity
2025
Overview
Kinase inhibitors (KIs) are mainstays of targeted cancer therapy, but their clinical utility is frequently limited by cardiotoxicity. A systematic resource to explore the underlying causal mechanisms is urgently needed.
We present the KICDB (Kinase Inhibitor Cardiotoxicity Database), a comprehensive and interactive web server. KICDB is built upon a framework integrating large-scale transcriptomics meta-analysis with causal inference.
This database centralizes the findings from a comprehensive meta-analysis of 26 kinase inhibitors (KIs) across 7 studies (n=5291) identified 8,907 significant gene expression changes in human cardiomyocytes. To establish causality, we performed a two-pronged Mendelian randomization (MR) analysis testing hundreds of downstream genes and a panel of 43 key kinase proteins against 46 cardiovascular outcomes. This large-scale analysis revealed 26 significant causal associations, implicating novel molecular mediators in KI-induced cardiotoxicity.
KICDB serves as a valuable and accessible platform for the cardio-oncology community. By integrating transcriptomic signatures with causal inference data, the database empowers researchers to formulate mechanistic hypotheses, accelerate biomarker validation, and guide the design of future cardioprotective strategies.

We developed KICDB, a comprehensive and publicly accessible web server, to systematically investigate the causal mechanisms of KI-induced cardiotoxicity.
KICDB integrates a large-scale meta-analysis of transcriptomic data from 26 KIs with a robust Mendelian randomization (MR) framework to move beyond correlation and infer causality.
The analysis identified 8,907 significant gene expression changes and 26 significant causal associations between KI-associated genes and 46 cardiovascular outcomes.
