Addressing gaps in
clinically useful evidence
on drug-drug
interactions
May 2nd
2013
BioDLP Seminar at the
University of Wisconsin - Milwaukee
Richard Boyce, University of Pittsburgh
Department of Biomedical Informatics
Biomedical Informatics2
Goals for this talk
• Describe potential drug-drug interactions
(PDDIs)
– the significant challenges facing clinicians and
maintainers of drug information systems.
• Present a new PDDI knowledge
representation paradigm
– that I hypothesize will yield more clinically
relevant evidence than is currently possible
• Discuss my BioDLP research
– Within the context of the new paradigm
Biomedical Informatics3
Part I – PDDIs and challenges for
PDDI knowledge representation
Biomedical Informatics4
What is a PDDI?
• Drug-drug interaction:
– a clinically meaningful alteration of the
effect of a drug (object drug) occurs as a
result of coadministration of another
drug (precipitant drug) [10]
• Potential drug-drug interaction
(PDDI):
– two drugs known to interact are
prescribed whether or not harm ensues
[10]
• Pharmacokinetic or
Biomedical Informatics5
The clinical importance of PDDIs
• PDDIs are a significant source of
preventable drug-related harm
– 13.3% of preventable errors leading to
an ADE [1]
– 7% (23/338) of the ADEs attributable to
PDDIs [2]
– 16 cohort and case-control studies
reported an elevated risk of
hospitalization in elderly patients who
were exposed to PDDIs [3]
Biomedical Informatics6
Knowledge is important
• Failure to properly manage a PDDI is a
medical error
• The IOM has noted that a lack of drug
knowledge is one of the most frequent
proximal causes such errors [4]
Biomedical Informatics7
The danger of incomplete drug-
drug interaction knowledge
Biomedical Informatics8
Key point
• Many drug information systems
disagree about PDDIs
– the specific ones that exist
– their potential to cause harm
• This leads to
– confusion and frustration for clinicians
– greater risks of harm to patients
Biomedical Informatics9
Evidence of drug compendia problems
• Three PDDI information sources agreed upon
only 25% of 59 contraindicated drug pairs
found in black box warnings [5]
• 18 (28%) of 64 pharmacy information and
clinical decisions support systems correctly
identified 13 clinically significant DDIs [6]
• Four sources agreed on only 2.2% of 406
PDDIs considered to be “major” by at least one
source [7]
Biomedical Informatics10
Why do compendia disagree?
• Four types of information to decide if a PDDI
warrants clinical action. [21]
• Collecting evidence related to each information
item on 244 PDDIs enabled them to determine
that 12% would require no action by physicians
[8]
A conceptual model – 30,000 feet
view
Limits the effectiveness of
PDDI alerting and
CPOE systems
Drug Compendia synthesize PDDI
evidence into knowledge but
•May fail to include important PDDIs
•Often disagree about PDDI evidence
and seriousness ranking
•May include numerous PDDIs with
little evidence for liability reasons
PDDI adverse event
Increases the risk of
PDDI evidence
Scattered across numerous sources
Biomedical Informatics12
PDDI evidence – pre-market studies
Pre-market studies establish PDDI
feasibility but:
•usually do not indicate ADE
seriousness, incidence, or risk
•Focus on generally younger and
healthier populations
•Do not exist for many older drugs

See references 31 and 32
Biomedical Informatics13
PDDI evidence – post-market studies
Post-market studies can provide
evidence of PDDI risk and incidence
if well-designed but:
•rarely are randomized studies due to
ethical considerations
•older drugs less likely to be studied

PDDI evidence – Clinical experience
Product labeling
Clinical experience can provide first
warning of a PDDI's and offers
unique insight on PDDI severity:
•are often case reports of low
evidential quality
•there is no general way to collect and
share these insights

PDDI over-alerting
• Systems that provide PDDI alerts at
the point of care often alert to PDDIs
that have little potential clinical
significance
– frustrating clinicians
“Drug safety alerts are overridden by clinicians
in 49% to 96% of cases” [11]
– can lead to inappropriate responses
“An increased number of non-critical alerts…
was the only variable associated with an
inappropriate provider response” [12]
Biomedical Informatics18
Summary of challenges for PDDI
knowledge representation
• PDDI evidence is distributed, dynamic, and
of varying quality
• There are significant gaps in PDDI evidence
making it hard to assess
– what is the potential harmful effect?
– who is the PDDI most likely to affect?
– when is a patient most at risk?
• Alerting has to become more
intelligent!

Elements of the new paradigm
• Linked Data [13]
– a Semantic Web technology that makes
distributed knowledge sources
interoperable, with interconnections
providing rich context that would be
unavailable from any single database
• Semantic annotation [14]
– a technology that enhances digital
information artifacts by linking them to
provenance and expert commentary
• Pharmacoepidemiology [15]
– an approach to studying of the use and
effects of drugs in large numbers of people
Biomedical Informatics22
Linked Data
• What is it?
– 3 minute jargon free introduction:
• player.vimeo.com/video/36752317

be a potentially effective means of
linking clinical drug information [9]
– Several high quality resources
– More complete information

Structured Product Labels (SPLs)
• All package inserts for currently marketed
drugs are available as SPLs [27-29]
Biomedical Informatics34
More about SPLs
Biomedical Informatics35
Key point
• LinkedSPLs [26] is a Linked Data version
of SPLs
– >36,000 FDA-approved prescription and
over-the-counter drugs present in
DailyMed
– simplifies access to SPL content
– interoperable with other important drug
terminologies and resources
– Enables queries across drug information
resources…
Biomedical Informatics36
Example cross-resource queries
• What are the known targets of all active
ingredients that are classified as
antidepressants?
• Is there a pharmacogenomics concern for
any of the drugs associated with
Hyperkalemia
• Show the evidence support for all
pharmacokinetic PDDIs affecting
buproprion that are supported by a
randomized study

An Example - extracting PDDIs from product
labels Product labeling
C
C. Boyce et al. Proceedings of the 2012. Workshop on BioNLP. 206-213 [16]
Recently published NLP algorithm specifically designed to extract PDDIs
from drug product labels
• A drug package insert PK PDDI corpus [24]:
• 592 PK PDDIs,
• 3,351 active ingredients,
• 234 drug product mentions,
• 201 metabolite mentions.
• SVM performed best
• F = 0.859 for pharmacokinetic PDDI identification
• F = 0.949 for modality assignment
• Syntactic information helped with sentences containing both
interacting and non-interacting pairs
Biomedical Informatics40
Application of the NLP algorithm
• Extract PDDIs and integrate into linked SPLs

Linkage to external sources
• There are many sources of drug information
that are complementary to each other.
– DrugBank: contains drug targets, pathways,
interactions
– RxNorm: provides UMLS mappings
– VA NDF-RT: PDDIs and drug classification
– ChEBI: provides rigorous classification of drugs
Biomedical Informatics42
Two linking studies
• Active ingredients in the structured portion of SPLs
to DrugBank [19]
• Three different approaches
• One fully unsupervised
• PDDIs (VA NDF-RT) to the Drug Interactions section
of 26 psychotropics [9]
• What benefits for this linkage?
• Collaboration with Majid Rastegar-Mojarad
Biomedical Informatics43
Linking Active ingredients in SPLs
to DrugBank
• Three different linking approaches to link
to DrugBank
1. Structure string (InChI)
2. Ontology label matching (ChEBI)
3. Unsupervised linkage point discovery
(Automated) [30]
Biomedical Informatics44
Linkage to DrugBank – Results
• 1,246 active ingredients (53%) could be mapped to
DrugBank by at least one method
• 1,096 unmapped ingredients
• The three approaches complement each other

Automatic -- -- -- 1162
Biomedical Informatics45
• The automatic approach performs very well
– A greater number of accurate links discovered
with less effort
• A significant number remain unmapped:
– Some salt or racemic forms of mapped ingredients
(e.g., alpha tocopherol acetate D)
– Elements (e.g., gold, iodine), and variety of natural
organic compounds including pollens (N~200)
• Not all ingredients are included in DrugBank
– other resources may be required to obtain
complete mappings for active ingredients.

PDDI studies comparing information sources
Product label PDDIs for 20 drugs manually identified [22]
• ~70 interactions
• Pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic
We filtered NDF-RT PDDIs
• String matching and an expanded version of the PDDI table
• ~2,500 drug-drug and drug-class pairs
Face validity but future work needed for
• validate the accuracy of this approach
• create a more scalable approach
Filter out DDIs
previously identified
in antidepressant
product labels
Biomedical Informatics48
Linking from VA NDF-RT - results
• At least one potentially novel interaction was linked
to a product label for products containing each of
the 20 antidepressants
– tranylcypromine (33), nefazodone (31), fluoxetine (28)
• Several cases where all of the PDDIs were
potentially novel
– e.g., trazodone, venlafaxine, trimipramine
• Pharmacist review
– Several true positives
• e.g., escitalopram-tapentadol, escitalopram-
metoclopramide
– Some false positives
• e.g., nefazodone-digoxin (digitalis)

Addressing gaps in clinically useful evidence on potential drug-drug interactions

  • 1. Biomedical Informatics1 Addressing gaps in clinically useful evidence on drug-drug interactions May 2nd 2013 BioDLP Seminar at the University of Wisconsin - Milwaukee Richard Boyce, University of Pittsburgh Department of Biomedical Informatics
  • 2. Biomedical Informatics2 Goals for this talk • Describe potential drug-drug interactions (PDDIs) – the significant challenges facing clinicians and maintainers of drug information systems. • Present a new PDDI knowledge representation paradigm – that I hypothesize will yield more clinically relevant evidence than is currently possible • Discuss my BioDLP research – Within the context of the new paradigm
  • 3. Biomedical Informatics3 Part I – PDDIs and challenges for PDDI knowledge representation
  • 4. Biomedical Informatics4 What is a PDDI? • Drug-drug interaction: – a clinically meaningful alteration of the effect of a drug (object drug) occurs as a result of coadministration of another drug (precipitant drug) [10] • Potential drug-drug interaction (PDDI): – two drugs known to interact are prescribed whether or not harm ensues [10] • Pharmacokinetic or
  • 5. Biomedical Informatics5 The clinical importance of PDDIs • PDDIs are a significant source of preventable drug-related harm – 13.3% of preventable errors leading to an ADE [1] – 7% (23/338) of the ADEs attributable to PDDIs [2] – 16 cohort and case-control studies reported an elevated risk of hospitalization in elderly patients who were exposed to PDDIs [3]
  • 6. Biomedical Informatics6 Knowledge is important • Failure to properly manage a PDDI is a medical error • The IOM has noted that a lack of drug knowledge is one of the most frequent proximal causes such errors [4]
  • 7. Biomedical Informatics7 The danger of incomplete drug- drug interaction knowledge
  • 8. Biomedical Informatics8 Key point • Many drug information systems disagree about PDDIs – the specific ones that exist – their potential to cause harm • This leads to – confusion and frustration for clinicians – greater risks of harm to patients
  • 9. Biomedical Informatics9 Evidence of drug compendia problems • Three PDDI information sources agreed upon only 25% of 59 contraindicated drug pairs found in black box warnings [5] • 18 (28%) of 64 pharmacy information and clinical decisions support systems correctly identified 13 clinically significant DDIs [6] • Four sources agreed on only 2.2% of 406 PDDIs considered to be “major” by at least one source [7]
  • 10. Biomedical Informatics10 Why do compendia disagree? • Four types of information to decide if a PDDI warrants clinical action. [21] • Collecting evidence related to each information item on 244 PDDIs enabled them to determine that 12% would require no action by physicians [8]
  • 11. A conceptual model – 30,000 feet view Limits the effectiveness of PDDI alerting and CPOE systems Drug Compendia synthesize PDDI evidence into knowledge but •May fail to include important PDDIs •Often disagree about PDDI evidence and seriousness ranking •May include numerous PDDIs with little evidence for liability reasons PDDI adverse event Increases the risk of PDDI evidence Scattered across numerous sources
  • 12. Biomedical Informatics12 PDDI evidence – pre-market studies Pre-market studies establish PDDI feasibility but: •usually do not indicate ADE seriousness, incidence, or risk •Focus on generally younger and healthier populations •Do not exist for many older drugs Product labeling Reported in Scientific literature Rarely reported in See references 31 and 32
  • 13. Biomedical Informatics13 PDDI evidence – post-market studies Post-market studies can provide evidence of PDDI risk and incidence if well-designed but: •rarely are randomized studies due to ethical considerations •older drugs less likely to be studied Product labeling Scientific literature Reported inRarely reported in
  • 14. Biomedical Informatics14 PDDI evidence – Clinical experience Product labeling Clinical experience can provide first warning of a PDDI's and offers unique insight on PDDI severity: •are often case reports of low evidential quality •there is no general way to collect and share these insights Rarely reported in Rarely reported in Scientific literature
  • 15. Evidence from the drug compendium perspective Pre-market studies Post-market studies Product labeling Reported in Clinical experience Scientific literature Rarely reported in Rarely reported in Reported in Rarely reported in Drug Compendia synthesize PDDI evidence into knowledge but •May fail to include important PDDIs •Often disagree about PDDI evidence and seriousness ranking •May include numerous PDDIs with little evidence for liability reasons Source for Source for
  • 16. Biomedical Informatics16 Effects on the clinician and patient PDDI alerting and CPOE systems Drug Compendia synthesize PDDI evidence into knowledge but •May fail to include important PDDIs •Often disagree about PDDI evidence and seriousness ranking •May include numerous PDDIs with little evidence for liability reasons PDDI adverse event Increases the risk of Limits the effectiveness of
  • 17. Biomedical Informatics17 PDDI over-alerting • Systems that provide PDDI alerts at the point of care often alert to PDDIs that have little potential clinical significance – frustrating clinicians “Drug safety alerts are overridden by clinicians in 49% to 96% of cases” [11] – can lead to inappropriate responses “An increased number of non-critical alerts… was the only variable associated with an inappropriate provider response” [12]
  • 18. Biomedical Informatics18 Summary of challenges for PDDI knowledge representation • PDDI evidence is distributed, dynamic, and of varying quality • There are significant gaps in PDDI evidence making it hard to assess – what is the potential harmful effect? – who is the PDDI most likely to affect? – when is a patient most at risk? • Alerting has to become more intelligent!
  • 19. Biomedical Informatics19 Part II – a new PDDI knowledge representation paradigm
  • 20. The new paradigm Product labeling Scientific literature A framework for representing PDDI assertions as interoperable Linked Data Pharmacoepidemiology studies Semantic annotation High priority PDDIs for research Semantic annotation Reduced risk of a PDDI medication error! Clinical experience Better synthesis of PDDI evidence, easier identification of gaps Expected benefits: •More complete and accurate PDDI evidence •Better informed pharmacists and other clinicians •More effective PDDI alerting and decisions support systems
  • 21. Biomedical Informatics21 Elements of the new paradigm • Linked Data [13] – a Semantic Web technology that makes distributed knowledge sources interoperable, with interconnections providing rich context that would be unavailable from any single database • Semantic annotation [14] – a technology that enhances digital information artifacts by linking them to provenance and expert commentary • Pharmacoepidemiology [15] – an approach to studying of the use and effects of drugs in large numbers of people
  • 22. Biomedical Informatics22 Linked Data • What is it? – 3 minute jargon free introduction: • player.vimeo.com/video/36752317 • My research has shown Linked Data to be a potentially effective means of linking clinical drug information [9] – Several high quality resources – More complete information
  • 23. Biomedical Informatics23 predicate Resource Description Framework (RDF) • Data model – triples • Syntax – RDF – The subject, predicate, and objects are specified by URIs <http://.../AnneHathaway> <http://.../Married> <http://../Shakespeare> <http://.../Shakespeare> <http://.../Wrote> <http://../Hamlet> subject object AnnHathaway Shakespeare Hamlet married wrote
  • 26. Combining Linked Data and Semantic Annotation
  • 27. Biomedical Informatics27 A structured assessment scores evidence and potential severity [21] Pharmacoepidemiology – filling in the gaps
  • 28. Recap of the new paradigm Product labeling Scientific literature A framework for representing PDDI assertions as interoperable Linked Data Pharmacoepidemiology studies Semantic annotation High priority PDDIs for research Semantic annotation Reduced risk of a PDDI medication error! Clinical experience Better synthesis of PDDI evidence, easier identification of gaps Expected benefits: •More complete and accurate PDDI evidence •Better informed pharmacists and other clinicians •More effective PDDI alerting and decisions support systems
  • 29. Biomedical Informatics29 Anticipated benefits of the new paradigm • A computable representation of PDDI safety concerns that is linked to: – evidence – expert input, and – pharmacoepidemiologic study results • More complete, timely, and accurate PDDI evidence – easier integration for drug compendia and CPOE developers • Better informed clinicians and patients
  • 30. Biomedical Informatics30 Part II – A brief review of my research within the context of this paradigm
  • 31. Overview of my recent PDDI studies Product labeling Scientific literature A framework for representing PDDI assertions as interoperable Linked Data Pharmacoepidemiology studies Semantic annotation High priority PDDIs for research Semantic annotation Clinical experience Better synthesis of PDDI evidence, easier identification of gaps A, B C E G A.

Jan 26;4(1):5. [9] E Hypothesis: A Linked Data knowledge base of drug product labels with accurate links to other relevant sources of drug information will provide a dynamic platform for drug information NLP that provides real value to clinical and translational researchers. Better synthesis of PDDI evidence, easier identification of gaps F C
  • 33. Biomedical Informatics33 Structured Product Labels (SPLs) • All package inserts for currently marketed drugs are available as SPLs [27-29]
  • 35. Biomedical Informatics35 Key point • LinkedSPLs [26] is a Linked Data version of SPLs – >36,000 FDA-approved prescription and over-the-counter drugs present in DailyMed – simplifies access to SPL content – interoperable with other important drug terminologies and resources – Enables queries across drug information resources…
  • 36. Biomedical Informatics36 Example cross-resource queries • What are the known targets of all active ingredients that are classified as antidepressants? • Is there a pharmacogenomics concern for any of the drugs associated with Hyperkalemia • Show the evidence support for all pharmacokinetic PDDIs affecting buproprion that are supported by a randomized study
  • 38. Biomedical Informatics38 LinkedSPLs – A research program Your annotations would go here!
  • 39. Biomedical Informatics39 An Example - extracting PDDIs from product labels Product labeling C C. Boyce et al. Proceedings of the 2012. Workshop on BioNLP. 206-213 [16] Recently published NLP algorithm specifically designed to extract PDDIs from drug product labels • A drug package insert PK PDDI corpus [24]: • 592 PK PDDIs, • 3,351 active ingredients, • 234 drug product mentions, • 201 metabolite mentions. • SVM performed best • F = 0.859 for pharmacokinetic PDDI identification • F = 0.949 for modality assignment • Syntactic information helped with sentences containing both interacting and non-interacting pairs
  • 40. Biomedical Informatics40 Application of the NLP algorithm • Extract PDDIs and integrate into linked SPLs PDDI Extraction algorithm Lovastatin product label
  • 41. Biomedical Informatics41 Linkage to external sources • There are many sources of drug information that are complementary to each other. – DrugBank: contains drug targets, pathways, interactions – RxNorm: provides UMLS mappings – VA NDF-RT: PDDIs and drug classification – ChEBI: provides rigorous classification of drugs
  • 42. Biomedical Informatics42 Two linking studies • Active ingredients in the structured portion of SPLs to DrugBank [19] • Three different approaches • One fully unsupervised • PDDIs (VA NDF-RT) to the Drug Interactions section of 26 psychotropics [9] • What benefits for this linkage? • Collaboration with Majid Rastegar-Mojarad
  • 43. Biomedical Informatics43 Linking Active ingredients in SPLs to DrugBank • Three different linking approaches to link to DrugBank 1. Structure string (InChI) 2. Ontology label matching (ChEBI) 3. Unsupervised linkage point discovery (Automated) [30]
  • 44. Biomedical Informatics44 Linkage to DrugBank – Results • 1,246 active ingredients (53%) could be mapped to DrugBank by at least one method • 1,096 unmapped ingredients • The three approaches complement each other InChI identifier ChEBI identifier InChI + ChEBI Automatic InChI identifier 424 261 424 395 ChEBI identifier --- 707 707 650 InChI + ChEBI -- -- 831 791 Automatic -- -- -- 1162
  • 45. Biomedical Informatics45 • The automatic approach performs very well – A greater number of accurate links discovered with less effort • A significant number remain unmapped: – Some salt or racemic forms of mapped ingredients (e.g., alpha tocopherol acetate D) – Elements (e.g., gold, iodine), and variety of natural organic compounds including pollens (N~200) • Not all ingredients are included in DrugBank – other resources may be required to obtain complete mappings for active ingredients. Linking methods conclusions
  • 46. Biomedical Informatics46 Linking from VA NDF-RT to LinkedSPLs • How often would it provide more complete information? VA NDF-RT in Bioportal October 2012 SPARQL: Get all DDIs for antidepressants Filter out DDIs previously identified in antidepressant product labels Tabulate potentially novel PDDIs
  • 47. Biomedical Informatics47 PDDI studies comparing information sources Product label PDDIs for 20 drugs manually identified [22] • ~70 interactions • Pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic We filtered NDF-RT PDDIs • String matching and an expanded version of the PDDI table • ~2,500 drug-drug and drug-class pairs Face validity but future work needed for • validate the accuracy of this approach • create a more scalable approach Filter out DDIs previously identified in antidepressant product labels
  • 48. Biomedical Informatics48 Linking from VA NDF-RT - results • At least one potentially novel interaction was linked to a product label for products containing each of the 20 antidepressants – tranylcypromine (33), nefazodone (31), fluoxetine (28) • Several cases where all of the PDDIs were potentially novel – e.g., trazodone, venlafaxine, trimipramine • Pharmacist review – Several true positives • e.g., escitalopram-tapentadol, escitalopram- metoclopramide – Some false positives • e.g., nefazodone-digoxin (digitalis)
  • 50. Biomedical Informatics50 The complete proof of concept • http://tinyurl.com/c53skm4 – 29 psychotropic drug products – Created using four Semantic Web nodes 1. http://thedatahub.org/dataset/linked-structured-product-labels 2. http://thedatahub.org/dataset/linkedct 3. http://bioportal.bioontology.org/ontologies/47101 4. http://thedatahub.org/dataset/the-drug-interaction-knowledge-base
  • 51. Biomedical Informatics51 Concluding points • The paradigm provides a framework for tying together – NLP for extracting PDDIs – NLP for linking evidence it to PDDIs – Aggregating existing PDDI resources in a single framework • Research prioritization • Community engagement

Editor's Notes

  1. I am very privileged to have been invited to speak at your biomedical data and language processing seminar. I would like to thank Dr. Prasad for inviting me and all those who have helped arrange my visit. The title of my talk is…. I chose to speak on this topic because biomedical data and language processing are critical for this task. Also, Masters student Majid Rastegar-Mojarad, Dr. Prasad, and I have been collaborating on research with this focus.
  2. I have three goals for this talk… The first is to describe PDDIs and present a conceptual model that explains why they present a major clinical decision support challenge to clinicians and drug information systems The second is to…. The third is to…. To achieve these goals, I have the divided the talk into three parts This talk will go just a bit over 50 minutes so I would like to encourage anyone who would have to leave early to ask questions as I go through the talk…
  3. The term PDDI is used to make a distinction between two very different situations…. A DDI is… A PDDI is…. Up until recently, there has been little distinction between these two scenarios in the literature, but the research community and drug information systems have agreed that this should be used from here on out…
  4. One of the things about PDDIs that makes them hard to study from an epidemiologic perspective is that there are many reasons why a PDDI might not result in harm….drugs are designed to be safe, random effects like patient non-compliance… Well designed prospective and retrospective studies have found evidence of the role of PDDIs in causing patient harm… Gurwitz et al, in their cohort study of ADEs among older Americans receiving ambulatory care, found that 13.3% of preventable errors leading to an ADE involved the co-prescription of drugs for which a “...well established, clinically important interaction” was known. 2 Nearly 7% (23/338) of the ADEs experienced by residents of two academic NHs over a nine-month period were attributable to PDDIs. 3 Sixteen cohort and case-control studies reported an elevated risk of hospitalization in patients who were exposed to PDDIs. 4
  5. First there are many defenses in place that help reduce risk….. None-the-less, Indeed, health care providers often have inadequate knowledge of what drug interactions can occur, patient specific factors that can increase the risk of harm from an interaction, and how to properly manage an interaction when patient exposure cannot be avoided
  6. A hypothetical illustration of how incomplete PDDI knowledge could lead to a harmful medication error. A clinician considers risperidone for treating an HIV patient taking ritonavir. Only one of two different drug information systems lists the PDDI. How system PDDI knowledge might influence probable clinician actions and patient outcomes.
  7. There is plenty of evidence on how drug information systems disagree about PDDIs Contraindications are generally considered to be cases where two drugs should almost never be prescribed together…yet…
  8. Understanding the potential clinical relevance of a PDDI in a given patient requires multiple types of evidence. 7,20–22 Eric van Roon et al. proposed a core PDDI information model using the definition that clinically-useful PDDI information is that which helps discern if some action should be taken with respect to a PDDI. 23 The model includes four elements shown in Figure 3. Collecting evidence related to each information item on 244 PDDIs enabled them to determine that 12% would require no action by physicians.
  9. In this conceptual model, PDDI evidence is perhaps a very critical element…for the next few slides, I am going to unpack what I mean by PDDI evidence and then I will present a more detailed conceptual model
  10. Explain the drug development process, note mandatory testing for PK interactions and the effect on product labeling, confusion on what to do with predicted interactions, the difficulty of getting primary study data for older drugs, cite FDA guidance, IOM report to the FDA, etc… Cerivistatin and gemfibrozil --- a ddi resulting in serious rhabdomyolysis
  11. Mention Vioxx (rofecoxib, 2004) pain in arthritis) recall – patients with potential heart conditions excluded from pre-market studies. Poor response to post-market evidence of association with heart attach and stroke. Postmarket studies include those done in response to drug-AE signal detection, followups on mechanistic studies, mandated phase IV studies, and studies initiated by interested pharmacoepidemiologists Make sure to emphasize that the scientific literature includes conference abstracts that are almost never indexed in PubMed
  12. Mention DIPS, role of case reports in identifying new DDIs
  13. Mention alert burden and evidence for negative effects of over-alerting. Note your own experience with shut off systems.
  14. Be sure to review the references and give a specific example
  15. Be sure to review the references and give a specific example
  16. Highlight the key points of the video
  17. The data model for the SW are triples consisting of subject, predicate, and object. This model if very general and could be implemented in a number of different ways. The SW uses RDF to encode this model in such a way that the subject, predicates, and objects are all specified by URIs. This means that any part of the triple could be from a different data source than any other part of the triple.
  18. Annotations in the data model are a set of RDF resources that connect some target to a set of resources that are in some way about it.
  19. Highlight links by URIs of the objects, the complementary information
  20. Emphasize the synthesis and expected benefits
  21. Discuss the shortcomings of Structured Product Labels published by FDA
  22. Discuss why we need linkage to external resources This can be using an example use case that relies on existence of links and so LinkedSPLs makes it possible (if not shown already in the discussion of the shortcomings of existing SPLs) Examples from paper: For example, RxNorm provides normalized names for the drug products and Unified Medical Language System mappings from the drug product and its active ingredients to concepts in numerous other vocabularies. DrugBank contains information on the specific biochemical targets that a drug entity may influence, major enzymatic pathways, and potential drug-drug interactions. While information on the latter two items may be present in the SPLs, it is hidden in the unstructured text. Similarly, ChEBI provides a rigorous classification of drug entities using a formal ontology maintained by members of the OBO. Both resources provide links to other important drug taxonomies (such as the ATC system) as well as resources that provide further information on the genes that encode drug targets, metabolism and transport of the drug, and diseases that the drug may help treat.
  23. To make this interesting to the audience, discuss the use of SAPIENTA to automatically identify claims regarding “conclusions” from clinical effectiveness studies
