In the long history of human kind (and animal kind, too) those who have learned to collaborate and improvise most

effectively have prevailed.

Open Innovation Open innovation is a paradigm that assumes that firms can and should use external ideas as well as

internal ideas, and internal and external paths to market, as the firms look to advance their technology

Chesbrough, H.W. (2003). Open Innovation: The new imperative for creating and profiting from technology.

Boston: Harvard Business School Press, p. xxiv

Collaborative Innovation A strategy in which groups partner to create a product - drive the efficient allocation of R&D

resources. Collaborating with outsiders-including customers, vendors and even competitors-a company is able to import lower-cost, higher-quality ideas from the best sources in the world.

e.g. Innocentive, crowdsourcing

Open SourceCompanies can donate their patents to an independent organization, put them in a common

pool or grant unlimited license use to anybody.

e.g. GSK malaria data, Novartis TB data

How to do it better?

What can we do with software to facilitate it ?

The future is more collaborative

We have tools but need integration

• Groups involved traverse the spectrum from pharma, academia, not for profit and government

• More free, open technologies to enable biomedical research• Precompetitive organizations, consortia..

A starting point for collaboration

A core root of the current inefficiencies in drug discovery are due to organizations’ and individual’s barriers to collaborate effectivelyBunin & Ekins DDT

16: 643-645, 2011

Page 6: Slides for st judes

Major collaborative grants in EU: Framework, IMI …NIH moving in same direction?

Cross continent collaboration CROs in China, India etc – Pharma’s in US / Europe

More industry – academia collaboration ‘not invented here’ a thing of the past

More effort to go after rare and neglected diseases -Globalization and connectivity of scientists will be key –

Current pace of change in pharma may not be enough.

Need to rethink how we use all technologies & resources…

Collaboration is everywhere

Collaborative Drug Discovery Platform

• CDD Vault – Secure web-based place for private data – private by default

• CDD Collaborate – Selectively share subsets of data

• CDD Public –public data sets - Over 3 Million compounds, with molecular properties, similarity and substructure searching, data plotting etc

will host datasets from companies, foundations etc

vendor libraries (Asinex, TimTec, ChemBridge)

• Unique to CDD – simultaneously query your private data, collaborators’ data, & public data, Easy GUI

Novartis aerobic and anaerobic TB hits

Anaerobic compounds showed statistically different and higher mean descriptor property values compared with the aerobic hits

(e.g. molecular weight, logP, hydrogen bond donor, hydrogen bond acceptor, polar surface area and rotatable bond number)

The mean molecular properties for the Novartis compounds are in a similar range to the MLSMR and TAACF-NIAID CB2 hits

Bayesian machine learning

Ekins, Williams and Xu, Drug Metab Dispos 38: 2302-2308, 2010

Bayesian classification is a simple probabilistic classification model. It is based on Bayes’ theorem

h is the hypothesis or modeld is the observed datap(h) is the prior belief (probability of hypothesis h before observing any data)p(d) is the data evidence (marginal probability of the data)p(d|h) is the likelihood (probability of data d if hypothesis h is true) p(h|d) is the posterior probability (probability of hypothesis h being true given the observed data d)

A weight is calculated for each feature using a Laplacian-adjusted probability estimate to account for the different sampling frequencies of different features.

The weights are summed to provide a probability estimate

Summary

Computational models based on Whole cell TB data could improve efficiency of screening

Collaborations get us to interesting compounds quickly

Availability of datasets enable analysis that could suggest simple rules

Active compounds vs Mtb and P. Falciparum have higher mean molecular weights and logP values

A high proportion of compounds fail the Abbott filters for reactivity when compared to drugs and antimalarials

Understanding the chemical properties and characteristics of compounds = better compounds for lead optimization.

St Jude and Novartis datasets should be screened vs Mtb as their property space is close to TB actives

Rare and Neglected disease researchers lack ADME/Tox insights

Page 37: Slides for st judes

Could all pharmas share their data as models with each other?

Increasing Data & Model Access

Ekins and Williams, Lab On A Chip, 10: 13-22, 2010.

Page 38: Slides for st judes

The big idea

Challenge..There is limited access to ADME/Tox data and models needed for R&D

How could a company share data but keep the structures proprietary?

Sharing models means both parties use costly software What about open source tools? Pfizer had never considered this - So we proposed a

study and Rishi Gupta generated models

Page 39: Slides for st judes

What can be developed with very large training and test sets?

Next steps

academics, neglected disease researchers We used the proof of concept to submit an SBIR

“Biocomputation across distributed private datasets to enhance drug discovery”

Develop prototype for sharing models securely- collaborate to show how combining data for TB etc could improve models

Phase II- develop a commercial product that leverages CDD Engage Pistoia Alliance to expand concept to many

companies – in progress

Finding Promiscuous Old Drugs for New Uses

Research published in the last six years - 34 studies - Screened libraries of FDA approved drugs against various whole cell or target assays.

1 or more compounds with a suggested new bioactivity

13 drugs were active against more than one additional disease in vitro

Page 47: Slides for st judes

Finding Promiscuous Old Drugs for New Uses

109 molecules were identified by screening in vitro

Statistically more hydrophobic (log P) and higher MWT than orphan-designated products with at least one marketing approval for a common disease indication or one marketing approval for a rare disease from the FDA’s rare disease research database.

Created structure searchable databases in CDD

Data in publications is increasing but who is tracking it?

Crowdsourcing Project “Off the Shelf R&D”

All pharmas have assets on shelf that reached clinic

“Off the Shelf R&D”

Get the crowd to help in repurposing / repositioning these assets

How can software help?

- Create communities to test

- Provide informatics tools that are accessible to the crowd - enlarge user base

- Data storage on cloud – integration with public data

- Crowd becomes virtual pharma-CROs and the “customer” for enabling services

Page 50: Slides for st judes

Tools for Open Science

• Blogs• Wikis• Databases• Journals

• What about Twitter, Facebook, could these be used for social collaboration, science?

Page 51: Slides for st judes

2020: A Drug Discovery Odyssey

Could our Pharma R&D look like this

Massive collaboration networks – software enabled. We are in “Generation App”

Crowdsourcing will have a role in R&D. Drug discovery possible by anyone with “app access”

Ekins & Williams, Pharm Res, 27: 393-395, 2010.

Example of Social Collaboration in Science:Tweets, Blog Lead to The Green Solvents App

I attend seminar on solvent selection guide

I tweet during talk

Mobile App developer Alex Clark responds to twitter along with Antony Williams starts an email discussion about Green Chemistry apps

I blog that evening

3 days later an App is createdBy Alex

•Make science more accessible = >communication

•Mobile – take a phone into field /lab and do science more readily than on a laptop

•GREEN – energy efficient computing

•MolSync (+ DropBox) + MMDS = Share molecules as SDF files on the cloud = collaborate
