De-risking drug discovery with predictive AI

Broad Institute

Still, more than 90 percent of drug candidates fail in clinical trials, with even more that never make it to the clinical stage. Many drugs fail because they simply aren’t safe. Seal began this work after wondering if more toxicology insights could be gleaned from a drug candidate’s chemical structure.

Lenacapavir Exhibits Atropisomerism - Mechanistic Pharmacokinetics and Disposition Studies of Lenacapavir Reveal Intestinal Excretion as a Major Clearance Pathway [Metabolism, Transport, and Pharmacogenetics]

ASPET

Lenacapavir (LEN), a long-acting injectable, is the first approved human immunodeficiency virus type 1 capsid inhibitor and one of a few FDA-approved drugs that exhibit atropisomerism. LEN does not distribute to brain, consistent with being a P-glycoprotein (P-gp) substrate.

Evaluating the Abuse Potential of Lenabasum, a Selective CB2 Cannabinoid Receptor Agonist [Behavioral Pharmacology]

ASPET

The primary endpoint was the peak effect (Emax) on a bipolar Drug Liking visual analog scale (VAS). Secondary VAS and pharmacokinetic (PK) endpoints and adverse events were assessed. Compared to placebo, a 20mg dose of lenabasum did not increase ratings of Drug Liking and had no distinguishable effect on other VAS endpoints.
