Popis: At the beginning of the ''Disease X'' outbreak, drug discovery and development are often challenged by insufficient and unbalanced data. To address this problem and maximize the information value of limited data, we propose a drug screening model, LGCNN, based on convolutional neural network (CNN), which enables rapid drug screening by integrating features of drug molecular structures and drug-target interactions at both local and global (LG) levels. Experimental results show that LGCNN exhibits better performance compared to other state-of-the-art classification methods under limited data. In addition, LGCNN was applied to anti-SARS-CoV-2 drug screening to realize therapeutic drug mining against COVID-19. LGCNN transcends the limitations of traditional models for predicting interactions between single drug targets and shows new advantages in predicting multi-target drug-target interactions. Notably, the cross-coronavirus generalizability of the model is also implied by the analysis of targets, drugs, and mechanisms in the prediction results. In conclusion, LGCNN provides new ideas and methods for rapid drug screening in emergency situations where data are scarce.
