1990s
Not to scale and not equivalent computing power – illustrates mobility
6. Driving change
Pharma reached a productivity tipping point
Cost of drug development high
Failure in clinic due to toxicity
Initiatives like REACH, ToxCast etc need to screen many molecules
Reduce use of animals
How to predict failure earlier – are we at a turning point?
7. Examples of Models for Human Toxicities
Drug induced liver injury (DILI)
Time dependent inhibition of P450 3A4
Transporters – hOCTN2
PXR and ToxCast
Precompetitive pharma models
8. Application : Drug induced liver injury DILI
Drug metabolism in the liver can convert some drugs into
highly reactive intermediates,
In turn can adversely affect the structure and functions of
the liver.
DILI, is the number one reason drugs are not approved
and also the reason some of them were withdrawn from
the market after approval
Estimated global annual incidence rate of DILI is 13.9-24.0
per 100,000 inhabitants,
and DILI accounts for an estimated 3-9% of all adverse
drug reactions reported to health authorities
Herbal components can cause DILI too

9. Drug Examples for DILI + and -
Troglitazone DILI + Pioglitazone DILI - Rosiglitzone DILI -
Aspirin DILI -
Sulindac DILI + Diclofenac DILI +
Xu et al., Toxicol Sci 105: 97-105 (2008)
10. Limitations of DILI?
Compound has to physically have been made and be
available for testing.
The screening system is still relatively low throughput
compared with any primary screens
Whole compound or vendor libraries cannot be cost
effectively screened for prioritization.
Screening system should be representative of the human
organ including drug metabolism capability.
Prediction of human therapeutic Cmax is often imprecise before
clinical testing in actual patients.
Ekins, Williams and Xu, Drug Metab Dispos 38: 2302-2308, 2010
11. DILI Computational Models
74 compounds - classification models (linear discriminant analysis, artificial neural
networks, and machine learning algorithms (OneR))
Internal cross-validation (accuracy 84%, sensitivity 78%, and specificity 90%). Testing
on 6 and 13 compounds, respectively > 80% accuracy.
(Cruz-Monteagudo et al., J Comput Chem 29: 533-549, 2008).
A second study used binary QSAR (248 active and 283 inactive) Support vector
machine models –
external 5-fold cross-validation procedures and 78% accuracy for a set of 18
compounds
(Fourches et al., Chem Res Toxicol 23: 171-183, 2010).
A third study created a knowledge base with structural alerts from 1266 chemicals.
Alerts created were used to predict results for 626 Pfizer compounds (sensitivity of
46%, specificity of 73%, and concordance of 56% for the latest version)
(Greene et al., Chem Res Toxicol 23: 1215-1222, 2010).
12. DILI data
Tested a panel of orally administered drugs at multiples of the maximum
therapeutic concentration (Cmax),
taking into account the first-pass effect of the liver and other
idiosyncratic toxicokinetic/toxicodynamic factors.
The 100-fold Cmax scaling factor represented a reasonable threshold to
differentiate safe versus toxic drugs for an orally dosed drug and with
regard to hepatotoxicity.
Concordance of the in vitro human hepatocyte imaging assay
technology (HIAT) for 300 drugs and chemicals, ~ 75% with regard to
clinical hepatotoxicity, with very few false-positive results
Xu et al., Toxicol Sci 105: 97-105 (2008).
13. Bayesian machine learning
Laplacian-corrected Bayesian classifier models were generated using Discovery
Studio (version 2.5.5; Accelrys).
Training set = 295, test set = 237 compounds
Uses two-dimensional descriptors to distinguish between compounds that are
DILI-positive and those that are DILI-negative

15. Features in DILI -
Ekins, Williams and Xu, Drug Metab Dispos 38: 2302-2308, 2010
16. Results
Fingerprints with high Bayesian scores that are present in many
DILI compounds appeared to be reactive in nature,
Could cause time-dependent inhibition of cytochromes P450 or be
precursors for metabolites that are reactive and may covalently
bind to proteins.
Why are long aliphatic chains important for DILI
generally hydrophobic and perhaps enabling increased
accumulation?
may be hydroxylated and then form other metabolites that are in
turn reactive?
Ekins, Williams and Xu, Drug Metab Dispos 38: 2302-2308, 2010
17. Test set analysis
compounds of most interest
well known hepatotoxic drugs (U.S. Food and Drug Administration
Guidance for Industry “Drug-Induced Liver Injury: Premarketing Clinical
Evaluation,” 2009), plus their less hepatotoxic comparators, if clinically
available.

18. Training vs test set PCA

Blue = training

Ekins, Williams and Xu, Drug Metab Dispos 38: 2302-2308, 2010
19. Compare to newer drugs
Extracted small molecule drugs
from 2006 to 2010 from the Prous
Integrity database
Structure validation resulted in a
set of 77 molecules (mean
molecular weight 427.05 ± 280.31,
range 94.11–1994.09)
These molecules were distributed
throughout the combined training
and test sets (N = 532),
representative of overlap
These combined analyses suggest
that the test and training sets used
for the DILI model are
representative of current medicinal
chemistry efforts.

21. Conclusions
First large-scale testing of DILI machine learning model
Concordance lower than with in vitro model
Statistics similar to Structural alerts from Pfizer paper
Could use models to filter compounds for further testing in
vitro
Use published knowledge to predict DILI

Searched a database of over 600 FDA approved drugs - selected drugs for in
vitro testing.
33 tested drugs predicted to map to the pharmacophore, 27 inhibited

29. hOCTN2 association with rhabdomyolysis
Among the 21 drugs associated with rhabdomyolysis or carnitine
deficiency, 14 (66.7%) provided a Cmax/Ki ratio higher than
0.0025.
Among 25 drugs that were not associated with rhabdomyolysis or
carnitine deficiency, only 9 (36.0%) showed a Cmax/Ki ratio higher than
0.0025.
Rhabdomyolysis or carnitine deficiency was associated with a Cmax/Ki
value above 0.0025 (Pearson’s chi-square test p = 0.0382).
limitations of Cmax/Ki serving as a predictor for rhabdomyolysis
-- Cmax/Ki does not consider the effects of drug tissue distribution
or plasma protein binding.

16 had case reports documenting an association with rhabdomyolysis
32. Growing role for PXR agonists
Interaction between hyperforin in St Johns Wort and irinotecan
= reduces efficacy
Ablating the inflammatory response mediated by exogenous toxins e.g.
inflammatory diseases of the bowel
Cholesterol metabolism pathway control - a negative effect
Mediating blood-brain barrier efflux of drugs modulation of efflux
transporters e.g. mdr1 and mrp2.
Decrease retention of CNS drugs e.g. anti-epileptics and pain killers,
decreasing efficacy
PXR induces cell growth and is pro-carcinogenic
33. ToxCast: docking chemicals in human PXR
• 10 Groups had contracts with EPA to test ~300 conazoles &
pesticides, etc with various biological assays (cell based,
receptor etc)
• We have docked all the molecules into the PXR agonist site
of 5 structures
• GOLD (ver 4) -genetic algorithm explores conformations of
ligands and flexible receptor side
• 20 independent docking runs
• Used the regular goldscore to classify compounds
• Comparing their respective scores to the corresponding
goldscores of the co-crystalized ligands.
• Majority vote across the five structures.
Kortagere et al., Env Health Perspect, 118: 1412-1417, 2010
34. ToxCast: docking pesticides in PXR
• Activities of most
activators more potent
vs NCGC data
• We correctly predict
~70% of compounds
and 75% of activators
• Including other
predicted pesticides
from Lemaire, G et al.,
Toxicol Sci. 2006; 91:501-9,
(2006).
• When compared to
NCGC data for complete
Toxcast set Sensitivity

Kortagere et al., Env Health
Perspect, 118: 1412-1417, 2010
35. ToxCast (blue) vs Steroidal (yellow) compounds
•Different areas in PCA using simple descriptors
•ToxCast requires a model built with similar molecules
•General PXR models may be limited in predicting
ToxCast data
•Phase II of ToxCast – further testing of models

42. Bayesian machine learning
Bayesian classification is a simple probabilistic classification model. It is based on
Bayes’ theorem
h is the hypothesis or model
d is the observed data
p(h) is the prior belief (probability of hypothesis h before observing any data)
p(d) is the data evidence (marginal probability of the data)
p(d|h) is the likelihood (probability of data d if hypothesis h is true)
p(h|d) is the posterior probability (probability of hypothesis h being true given the
observed data d)
A weight is calculated for each feature using a Laplacian-adjusted probability
estimate to account for the different sampling frequencies of different features.
The weights are summed to provide a probability estimate
