Progressive Querying Strategies
Start with broad queries and progressively narrow down:
Step 1: Initial broad search
Show me all oncology drugs in the database
Step 2: Narrow by phase
Focus on Phase 3 oncology drugs
Step 3: Add specific criteria
Which of these target solid tumors and have breakthrough designation?
Step 4: Deep dive
Show me detailed clinical trial data for the top 3 candidates
Data Organization Requests
By Development Phase
Show me all diabetes drugs organized by clinical trial phase
By Indication
List all drugs targeting EGFR, organized by specific cancer indication
By Timeline
List drugs by expected approval date for the next 12 months
Complex Analysis Queries
Comprehensive Market Mapping
Analyze the complete competitive landscape for diabetes treatments,
including all drugs in development, their mechanisms, trial phases,
regulatory status, and key differentiators
Technology Trends
Show me the trend in mRNA therapeutics over the past 3 years,
including all indications being targeted and development stages
Best Practices for Effective Queries
1. Start Specific, Then Broaden
Begin with precise criteria and expand if needed:
- ✅ "Phase 3 EGFR inhibitors" → "All EGFR inhibitors"
- ❌ Starting too broad may return overwhelming results
2. Use Clear, Natural Language
Write queries as you would ask a colleague:
- ✅ "What drugs target PD-1 and are in late-stage trials?"
- ✅ "What are the latest antibody-drug conjugates in development?"
3. Leverage Follow-Up Questions
Build on previous answers:
- First: "Show me all BTK inhibitors"
- Then: "Which of these have FDA approval?"
- Finally: "Compare their mechanism differences"
4. Request Organized Output
Ask for structured results:
- "Organize by development phase"
- "Group by indication"
- "Sort by mechanism of action"
- "List chronologically by approval date"
5. Combine Multiple Dimensions
Mix different criteria types:
- Target + Indication + Phase
- Drug Class + Therapeutic Area + Status
- Mechanism + Regulatory Status + Timeline
Tips for Platform-Specific Limitations
When working with result limits (e.g., ChatGPT's 20-result limit):
Strategy 1: Use Specific Filters
Show me Phase 3 EGFR inhibitors for non-small cell lung cancer
(More specific = more relevant results within limit)
Strategy 2: Sequential Queries
Show me Phase 3 EGFR inhibitors
Then:
Show me Phase 2 EGFR inhibitors
Strategy 3: Focus by Category
Show me the top 20 most advanced oncology drugs by phase
Common Query Patterns
"Show me..." Pattern
- "Show me all drugs targeting [TARGET]"
- "Show me all drugs for [INDICATION] in [PHASE]"
"Find..." Pattern
- "Find all [DRUG_CLASS] in [PHASE] trials"
- "Find drugs with [REGULATORY_STATUS]"
"What are..." Pattern
- "What are the latest [INDICATION] treatments?"
- "What are the key competitors in [THERAPEUTIC_AREA]?"
"Compare..." Pattern
- "Compare [DRUG_A] vs [DRUG_B]"
- "Compare all [DRUG_CLASS] by mechanism and efficacy"
"Analyze..." Pattern
- "Analyze the competitive landscape for [INDICATION]"
- "Analyze trends in [THERAPEUTIC_AREA]"
Troubleshooting Query Issues
If you get too few results:
- Broaden your search criteria
- Remove specific filters
- Try different terminology (e.g., "cancer" vs "oncology")
If you get too many results:
- Add more specific filters
- Focus on a particular phase or indication
- Request top N results by relevance
If results seem irrelevant:
- Rephrase your query with more specific terms
- Use standard medical/scientific terminology
- Break complex queries into simpler parts
