Some things that make drug discovery difficult
• Having to exploit targets that are weakly-linked to
human disease
• Inability to predict idiosyncratic toxicity
• Inability to measure free (unbound) physiological
concentrations of drug for remote targets (e.g.
intracellular or on far side of blood brain barrier)

Molecular Design
• Control of behavior of compounds and materials by
manipulation of molecular properties
• Hypothesis-driven or prediction-driven
• Sampling of chemical space
– Does fragment-based screening allow better control of
sampling resolution?

Correlation inflation by hiding variationSee Hopkins, Mason & Overington (2006) Curr Opin Struct Biol 16:127-136 DOI
Leeson & Springthorpe (2007) NRDD 6:881-890 DOI
Data is naturally binned (X is an integer) and mean value of Y is calculated for
each value of X. In some studies, averaged data is only presented graphically
and it is left to the reader to judge the strength of the correlation.

Another way to look at SAR?
![Page 22: Some new directions for pharmaceutical molecular design](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022042816/5594213d1a28ab37128b475c/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
(Descriptor-based) QSAR/QSPR:
Some questions
• How valid is methodology (especially for validation)
when distribution of compounds in training/test space
is highly non-uniform?
• Are models predicting activity or locating neighbours?
• To what extent are ‘global’ models just ensembles of
local models?
• How well do the methods handle ‘activity cliffs’?
• How should we account for sizes of descriptor pools
when comparing model performance?

MUDO Molecule Editor
• SMIRKS-based re-write of Leatherface using
OEChem
• Can process 3D structures (e.g. form covalent bond
between protein and ligand)
• Identification of matched molecular pairs is much
easier than with Leatherface

• Molecular design is not just about prediction so
how can we make hypothesis-driven design more
systematic?
• Data can be massaged and correlations can be
inflated but it won’t extract us from ‘la merde’
• There is life beyond octanol/water (and atom-
centered charges) if we choose to look for it
• Even molecules can have meaningful relationships
