David Watson gave this presentation at the “Addressing toxicity in drug discovery” workshop during the ACS National Spring Meeting 2013

Summary

Toxicity of drug candidates is a major cause of expensive, late stage failure in pre-clinical and clinical development.  In this presentation, David introduced Lhasa’s world-leading technology for knowledge-based prediction of key toxicities.  Using data from published and donated (unpublished) sources, their Derek Nexus tool identifies structure-toxicity relationships that alert users to the potential of compounds causing toxicity.
