As of 2026-09-14

Hepatocyte growth factor shows late clinical disease relevance led by gastric cancer. 5 more disease programs remain visible in the same review block. 1 linked drug keeps the current disease frame grounded. Protein identity stays anchored to UniProt P14210. Start with gastric cancer, then reuse UniProt P14210 as the stable protein anchor across project notes and exports.

Hepatocyte growth factor shows late clinical disease relevance led by gastric cancer. 5 more disease programs remain visible in the same review block. 1 linked drug remains visible in the same block.

Start review with gastric cancer because it currently carries late clinical support. Linked drugs include RILOTUMUMAB. This disease block keeps the Open Targets-ready contract explicit while current evidence comes from ChEMBL mechanism and indication mappings.
