- Filter by disease, therapy, molecular profile, phenotype, evidence type, and direction.
- Option to filter only strong evidence (rating > 3).
- Sources and citations included for top evidence entries.
- Designed for research purposes only, not medical advice.
Setting up with Highlight
This MCP is not yet compatible with Highlight’s one-click setup. However, you can still use it with Highlight by following these steps:
- Download and install Highlight from highlightai.com/download
- Navigate to the plugins tab and select "Add Custom Plugin"
-
Configure the plugin with the settings below
Plugin Name
Nexonco McpCommand (node, npx, python, etc.)Please refer to the README for specific instructions on how to obtain API keys or other required environment variables.
- Enable "Start Automatically" if you want the plugin to start when Highlight launches
From the repository
Install and run using uv or Docker. For MCP integration, you need Claude Desktop. Refer to docs/nanda-server-setup.md and docs/claude-desktop-setup.md for full configuration. Invoke the single tool search_clinical_evidence with optional search filters.
Claude Desktop / Cursor
Paste into your MCP client config file to install this server.

Setup
Prerequisites
- uv or Docker
- Claude Desktop (for MCP integration)
Setup Guides
For detailed setup instructions, refer to the following documentation:
- NANDA Host Setup
See docs/nanda-server-setup.md for backend configuration and local registration of the NANDA Server.
- Claude Desktop Setup
See docs/claude-desktop-setup.md for guidance on configuring the local development environment and MCP integration.
These guides include all required steps, environment configurations, and usage notes to get up and running.
Tool List
search_clinical_evidence: A MCP tool for querying clinical evidence data that returns formatted reports.
Input Schema
The tool accepts the following optional parameters: -disease_name (str): Filter by disease (e.g., "Lung Non-small Cell Carcinoma").
- therapy_name (str): Filter by therapy or drug (e.g., "Cetuximab").
- molecular_profile_name (str): Filter by gene or variant (e.g., "EGFR L858R").
- phenotype_name (str): Filter by phenotype (e.g., "Chest Pain").
- evidence_type (str): Filter by evidence type (e.g., "PREDICTIVE", "DIAGNOSTIC").
- evidence_direction (str): Filter by evidence direction (e.g., "SUPPORTS").
- filter_strong_evidence (bool): If True, only includes evidence with a rating > 3 (max 5).
Output
The tool returns a formatted string with four sections: 1. Summary Statistics: - Total evidence items - Average evidence rating - Top 3 diseases, genes, variants, therapies, and phenotypes (with counts) 2. Top 10 Evidence Entries: - Lists the highest-rated evidence items with details like disease, phenotype, gene/variant, therapy, description, type, direction, and rating. 3. Sources & Citations: - Citations and URLs for the sources of the top 10 evidence entries. 4. Disclaimer: - A note stating the tool is for research purposes only, not medical advice.Sample Usage
- "Find predictive evidence for colorectal cancer therapies involving KRAS mutations."
- "Are there studies on Imatinib for leukemia?"
- "What therapies are linked to pancreatic cancer evidence?"
