BioMCP: Biomedical Model Context Protocol

BioMCP is an open source (MIT License) toolkit that empowers AI assistants and agents with specialized biomedical knowledge. Built following the Model Context Protocol (MCP), it connects AI systems to authoritative biomedical data sources, enabling them to answer questions about clinical trials, scientific literature, and genomic variants with precision and depth.

Why BioMCP?

While Large Language Models have broad general knowledge, they often lack specialized domain-specific information or access to up-to-date resources. BioMCP bridges this gap for biomedicine by:

  • Providing structured access to clinical trials, biomedical literature, and genomic variants
  • Enabling natural language queries to specialized databases without requiring knowledge of their specific syntax
  • Supporting biomedical research workflows through a consistent interface
  • Functioning as an MCP server for AI assistants and agents

Biomedical Data Sources

BioMCP integrates with three key biomedical data sources:

  • PubTator3/PubMed - Biomedical literature with entity annotations
  • ClinicalTrials.gov - Clinical trial registry and results database
  • MyVariant.info - Consolidated genetic variant annotation from multiple databases

Available MCP Tools

PubMed & PubTator3

  • article_searcher: Search for articles by genes, diseases, variants, or keywords
  • article_details: Get detailed article information including abstracts and full text

ClinicalTrials.gov

  • trial_searcher: Advanced trial search with filtering by condition, intervention, phase, etc.
  • trial_protocol: Detailed trial protocol information
  • trial_locations: Trial site locations and contact information
  • trial_outcomes: Results and outcome measures
  • trial_references: Related publications

MyVariant.info

  • variant_searcher: Search for genetic variants with sophisticated filtering
  • variant_details: Comprehensive annotations from multiple sources (CIViC, ClinVar, COSMIC, dbSNP, etc.)

Quick Start

For Claude Desktop Users

  1. Install uv if you don't have it (recommended):

    # MacOS brew install uv # Windows/Linux pip install uv
  2. Configure Claude Desktop:

    • Open Claude Desktop settings
    • Navigate to Developer section
    • Click "Edit Config" and add:
    { "mcpServers": { "biomcp": { "command": "uv", "args": ["run", "--with", "biomcp-python", "biomcp", "run"] } } }
    • Restart Claude Desktop and start chatting about biomedical topics!

Python Package Installation

# Using pip pip install biomcp-python # Using uv (recommended for faster installation) uv pip install biomcp-python # Run directly without installation uv run --with biomcp-python biomcp trial search --condition "lung cancer"

Command Line Interface

BioMCP provides a comprehensive CLI for direct database interaction:

# Get help biomcp --help # Run the MCP server biomcp run # Examples biomcp article search --gene BRAF --disease Melanoma biomcp article get 21717063 --full biomcp trial search --condition "Lung Cancer" --phase PHASE3 biomcp trial get NCT04280705 Protocol biomcp variant search --gene TP53 --significance pathogenic biomcp variant get rs113488022

Testing & Verification

Test your BioMCP setup with the MCP Inspector:

npx @modelcontextprotocol/inspector uv run --with biomcp-python biomcp run

This opens a web interface where you can explore and test all available tools.
