An integrative machine learning approach for prediction of toxicity-related drug safety
Open accessPublished version of a preprint
Abstract
Abstract Recent trends in drug development have been marked by diminishing returns of escalating costs and falling rate of new drug approval. Unacceptable drug toxicity is a substantial cause of drug failure during clinical trials as well as the leading cause of drug withdraws after release to market. Computational methods capable of predicting these failures can reduce waste of resources and time devoted to the investigation of compounds that ultimately fail. We propose an original machine learning method that leverages identity of drug targets and off-targets, functional impact score computed from Gene Ontology annotations, and biological network data to predict drug toxicity. We demonstrate that our method (TargeTox) can distinguish potentially idiosyncratically toxic drugs from safe drugs and is also suitable for speculative evaluation of different target sets to support the design of optimal low-toxicity combinations. Summary blurb: Prediction of toxicity-related drug clinical trial failures, withdrawals from market and idiosyncratic toxicity risk by combining biological network analysis with machine learning.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
