Large-scale evaluation of cytochrome P450 2C9 mediated drug interaction potential with machine learning-based consensus modeling.

ABSTRACT: Cytochrome P450 (CYP) enzymes play an important role in the metabolism of xenobiotics. Since they are connected to drug interactions, screening for potential inhibitors is of utmost importance in drug discovery settings. Our study provides an extensive classification model for P450-drug interactions with one of the most prominent members, the 2C9 isoenzyme. Our model involved the largest set of 45,000 molecules ever used for developing prediction models. The models are based on three different types of descriptors, (a) typical one, two and three dimensional molecular descriptors, (b) chemical and pharmacophore fingerprints and (c) interaction fingerprints with docking scores. Two machine learning algorithms, the boosted tree and the multilayer feedforward of resilient backpropagation network were used and compared based on their performances. The models were validated both internally and using external validation sets. The results showed that the consensus voting technique with custom probability thresholds could provide promising results even in large-scale cases without any restrictions on the applicability domain. Our best model was capable to predict the 2C9 inhibitory activity with the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) of 0.85 and 0.84 for the internal and the external test sets, respectively. The chemical space covered with the largest available dataset has reached its limit encompassing publicly available bioactivity data for the 2C9 isoenzyme.
