Beyond Potency: How Modeling can contribute to ADMET with structure based, ligand property, and machine learning approaches.

Speaker:
Andreas Verras, Director, Schrödinger

Abstract:
Potency optimization is a general first step in drug discovery, but can be quickly overshadowed by other problems that make in vivo studies impossible. Optimizing absorption, metabolism, efflux and off-target toxicities is necessary to generate molecules that can interrogate your mechanism in an animal and ultimately go to the clinic. I will explore modeling approaches to understanding pharmacokinetic data; improving efflux, absorption, and eflux; and modeling some off target data. A combination of structure based, ligand based, and machine learning approaches is presented with some opinion on which problems they are most suited.
