Predicting New Uses – Gold mine or
Bigger Haystack?
Numedicus (est. 2008) provides collaborative & consultative services to
companies seeking expert advice in the area novel uses for existing drugs

Prediction of New Uses

Plenty of known new uses for existing drugs


Drugrepurposing.info contains 1759 repurposing links
between mechanism and indication, 159 links between
compound and indication and 61 links between compound
and mechanism -- so-called "off-target" effects
What about unknown new uses?

Iorio, 2011; similar strategy led to fasudil/HD (not new)

Conclusions





There are plenty of drug repurposing opportunities
New ones can derive from knowledge based
approaches, or experimental ones
Ontological approaches have led to patented products
by linking two known relationships and creating an
unknown one
Further repurposing hypotheses via similarity analysis
have varying degrees of predictive certainty (should
these be quantitated, and how?)
Repurposing possibilities involve multidimensional
variation of (at least) API, target, indication & patent:
a complete picture may be unachievable
