“We cannot fail for reasons we could have predicted.
We should fail only for reasons we could not predict.”
—Dr Moncef Slaoui
Head of Global R&D, GSK
• Low margin of safety is a major
cause of attrition in Phase I and II
• Lack of efficacy is a major cause
of attrition in Phase II and III
Better informed decisions at the Lead

Reaxys Medicinal Chemistry coverage
“The power of Reaxys Medicinal Chemistry is that the data are ready
to be discovered, used, digested and analyzed.
That laborious work of preparing the data is done. The user can now
focus on gaining insights.”
• millions of data points in
Reaxys Medicinal Chemistry
can serve as direct input for
any desired analysis.
• The pX value featured in the
database is a standardized
measure of affinity.
• The heatmap in the Reaxys
Medicinal Chemistry user
interface capitalizes on this
comparability to provide an
interactive matrix that
summarizes affinity for a
large number of compound–
target pairings and can be
used to explore factors that
contribute to affinity or find
interesting activity hotspots

pX concept competitive advantage
• Augment (not replace) original data
• Make it possible to compare affinity of compounds using different reported metrics
Examples: IC50, Ki % inhibition
• Make it possible to search for active compounds regardless of metric reported
• Insure end users to encompass all the affinity data that they are searching for without
being an expert (knowing all the parameters and units used in publications)
• Facilitate analysis using third party tools (Spotfire, Pipeline Pilot) through the export.
pX it’s a unique way of quantifying affinity of compounds on targets

    How the pXis Calculated ? : % inhibition Results are expressed % of inhibition % of inhibition are converted into IC50 when a concentration of the tested compound is available using the following equation and assumptions - Hill slope = 1 (nh) - % of inhbition between 25% and 95% - Concentration of the compound is not Available pX is not calculated - Concentration of the compound is available as :  Range pX is not calculated  Single value pX is calculated as follow o If %inhibition <25 pX = 1 o If 25 ≤ % inhibition <95 pX =-Log (IC50) using eq.1 o If % inhibition ≥ 95 % inhibition =95 and pX =-Log (IC50) using eq.1 % inhibition is available as Single value - Concentration of the compound is not Available pX is not calculated - Concentration of the compound is available as :  Range pX is not calculated  Single value pX is calculated as follow %inhibitionaverage=(%inhibitionmax+%inhibitionmin)/2 o If %inhibition Average <25 pX = 1 o If 25 ≤ % inhibitionAverage <95 pX =-Log (IC50) using eq.1 o If % inhibitionAverage ≥ 95 % inhibition Average =95 and pX =-Log (IC50) using eq.1 % inhibition is available as Range Eq.1

    How the pXis Calculated ? : Qualitative results - Not Active (NA) pX = 1 - @ Active Concentration of the compound is not Available pX is not calculated Concentration of the compound is available Range pX = -Log [Concentration min] Single value pX = -Log [Concentration] Results are expressed as Qualitative

Editor's Notes

  • #4 2016 was a bummer! After years of rising FDA approvals that swelled to an all-time high of 51 new drugs in 2015, they plummeted to 22 last year—a 57% drop—down to a level not seen since 2010 (Fig 1 and 2). What happened? Reversal to the mean? A harbinger of worse things to come? The answer matters because we spend $328 billion a year to buy our medicines in the U.S. ($697 billion worldwide), and the less productive the industry R&D, the more remote the prospect of enjoying affordable great drugs again. What did change, however, were the companies getting the approvals. The outperformers of recent years, GlaxoSmithKline (GSK), Johnson & Johnson and Novartis did not get an approval in 2016 (Fig 4); Neither did Amgen, AstraZeneca, Bayer and Bristol-Myers Squibb (BMS). In all, seven of the 13 historic big pharma companies, which received 14 approvals in 2015, came up empty-handed in 2016. The remaining six companies saw their take grow from 6 to 8. Many of the metrics used to assess drug R&D did not change significantly. Research spending, now at $154 billion, has kept growing, if modestly. The 13 historic big pharma companies received 36% of the approvals vs. 41% in 2015. In both years, the same percentage of drugs (41%) were prized first-in-class therapies targeting novel modes of action. Cancer, infectious diseases, hematology and central nervous systems remained the leading therapeutic areas, garnering 73% of the approvals vs. 71% in 2015. Biological drugs gathered a majority of the approvals for the first time (55% vs. 39% in 2015), extending the trend of recent years. On the regulatory side, a higher percentage of drugs benefited from FDA’s programs to speed their journey to market (Fig 3) as compared to 2015. In short, the class profile of 2016 does not stand out from its predecessor on any metric that might explain the lower approvals.
  • #5 Emphasis why we need to work on the Lead ID and validation to increase th success rate in clinical trials.
  • #20 Medium size pharma are in between consequently they are potentially interested in the two approaches Product out of the box and Content integration. The Strategy to adopt depend on the personas that are involved in the deal Computationnal chemist, Chemoinformaticians etc.. (HT data users) => Data + KNIME/API Chemist medicinal chemist etc…. (LT data users) => UI
