This poster started life following the announcement that the Liverpool Cancer Drug Interaction website was closing down. Discussions ensued about good alternatives. We identified 6 alternative candidates and assessed each against Liverpool, against a previously published paper[1] and an adaption of a method[2] to combine the results of multiple tools.
