Since there are still many compounds terminated due to safety concerns in preclinical and clinical studies, compound evaluation and design with safety perspective are strongly needed at the early-stage of drug discovery. We have developed in vitro tiered screening strategy and provided two types of computational support for the purpose. One is a prediction by QSAR models and the other is a structural modification based on matched molecular pair DB, which were built by the large amount of screening data. In this presentation, I would like to introduce the approaches.
