Reference
Best Practices
- Use multiple models: Consensus predictions more reliable
- Check confidence: Low confidence = experimental verification needed
- Consider chemistry: Novel structures less reliable
- Iterative design: Use predictions to guide synthesis
- Validate early: Confirm key predictions experimentally
Common Pitfalls
| Pitfall | Solution |
|---|
| Over-reliance on predictions | Experimental validation required |
| Ignoring confidence | Check model applicability domain |
| Single model only | Use consensus of multiple models |
| Ignoring chemistry | Novel scaffolds = uncertain predictions |
| Late-stage testing | Early ADMET screening saves time |
Limitations
- Models are approximate: Errors common
- Novel chemistry: Less reliable for new scaffolds
- In vitro-in vivo gap: Predictions don't always translate
- Species differences: Human predictions based on animal data
- Complex mechanisms: Some toxicity not predicted
