Background
The goal of assessing ADME properties is to understand how a potential drug candidate interacts with the human body, including absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion. This knowledge is crucial for evaluating efficacy, safety, and clinical potential, guiding drug development for optimal therapeutic outcomes. Fang et al. 2023 disclosed DMPK datasets collected over 20 months across six ADME in vitro endpoints: human and rat liver microsomal stability, MDR1-MDCK efflux ratio, solubility, and human and rat plasma protein binding. The dataset contains 885 to 3087 measurements for the corresponding endpoints.
Benchmarking
The goal* of this benchmark is to perform a single task, which is to have the best predictive model for human plasma protein binding.
Description of readout
- Readouts:
LOG HPPB (mL/min/kg)
- Bioassay readout: Human plasma protein binding
- Optimization objective: Lower value

Train/test split:
In this benchmark set, the same train/test sets as in the fang2023 paper were used for the 6 endpoints: human and rat liver microsomal stability, MDR1-MDCK efflux ratio, solubility, and human and rat plasma protein binding, respectively.
