Disease

Names and IDs as Open Targets gives them. Its IDs in MeSH, Orphanet, the Disease Ontology and the NCI Thesaurus are those Open Targets states for it.

Name
Short stature
Open Targets ID
HP_0004322
Other names
Decreased body height, Height less than 3rd percentile, Small stature, Stature below 3rd percentile
Highest stage of its drugs
Phase 3, for 6 of its 12 drugs, from ClinicalTrials.gov

Source Open Targets

Drugs12

The drugs Open Targets' clinical reports study for the disease, the highest stage first, then the most trial reports. The stage is Open Targets', the highest any of its sources reports for the pair, and each row names the sources that report it.

Targets66

The targets ChEMBL's mechanism records give for the disease's drugs, through Open Targets, the most drugs first. A mechanism record says what a drug acts on, not that the target causes the disease.

Trials43

Trials an Open Targets clinical report links to the disease, posted results first, then the largest. A trial is shown when the release's checks confirm its link to the disease and Drugs and targets shows its link to one of the disease's drugs. 1 more is not shown, since the checks do not confirm it.
