SwissADME

SwissADME predicts physicochemical properties, pharmacokinetics (ADME), drug-likeness, and medicinal chemistry friendliness of small molecules to support early-stage drug discovery candidate assessment.


Key Features:

  • Predictive models for physicochemical properties: Estimates various physicochemical properties of small molecules relevant to their behavior in biological systems.
  • Pharmacokinetics (ADME) assessment: Predicts absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion–related properties to inform pharmacokinetic profiles.
  • Drug-likeness evaluation: Evaluates drug-likeness of molecules using computational models to identify candidates with favorable properties.
  • Medicinal chemistry friendliness: Assesses medicinal chemistry friendliness to indicate amenability to chemical modification and optimization.
  • In-house specialized methods: Incorporates BOILED-Egg, iLOGP, and Bioavailability Radar for specialized predictive tasks within the drug discovery process.

Scientific Applications:

  • Early-stage candidate prioritization: Enables rapid in silico assessment of ADME, physicochemical properties, drug-likeness, and medicinal chemistry friendliness to prioritize small-molecule candidates.
  • Support for high-throughput and virtual screening: Provides computational predictions for collections of molecules to supplement experimental screening when resources or samples are limited.

Methodology:

Employs computational models and in-house methods, including BOILED-Egg, iLOGP, and Bioavailability Radar, to predict physicochemical properties, ADME-related pharmacokinetics, drug-likeness, and medicinal chemistry friendliness.
